Hi Claire! I'll be reading Holding Up the Universe from your list. You rated it 5 stars, my rating is TBA. :)
Hi Iulia,Pleased to know that we will be partners for this month. I tried looking at books from your profile, however, it seems to be private so I sent a friend request. Hopefully you'll accept and also I hope you find a good book in my bookshelf (I don't have a large collection).
I got paired with Kanu :) I have chosen to read The Chemist by Stephenie Meye from his list.Kanu's rating: 4 stars
My rating: TBA
Hi to Annie from China, this is your partner, Anne, from Austin, TX. I have chosen to read 'What Lies Beyond the Stars' from your shelf. This is a new discovery for me, and I'm really excited! The cover drew my attention, it's beautiful. The story line sounds intriguing, and it's interesting to read that the author is an actor and film-maker. I was excited to see the book setting of Mendocino, California. I just returned from vacationing there 2 weeks ago, and I can totally see it as a place of transformation for human spirit, it's breathtakingly beautiful there! Looking forward to this read!! Annie's rating: 4 stars
My rating: TBA
Sad that I missed this month's sign up. Really enjoyed last month. If anyone else joins in late and would like to pair up, let me know!

Hi Aesaan! :)
I accepted your friend request so you can go and take a look at my read-shelf. I hope you'll find something which fits your interests. If you want a suggestion, don't hesitate to ask me! I'd be pleased to help you.
I looked at your read-shelf and I must say that although you don't have a large collection, you sure have a good one. There are quite a few books that I'd like to read. However, for the July CCC I chose to read I Am Legend by Richard Matheson. You rated it 5 stars. I can't wait to read it!
Hi Iulia,I'm glad you liked my collection. I Am Legend is a good choice, hope you like it.
I can say the same about you read-shelf, especially with the classics like Catcher in the Rye, To Kill a Mockingbird, Slaughterhouse-Five and many more. It took me some time to decide it is 1984 that I'm going to read this month :) which got 5-Stars from you.
However, if you think I should read one of the others before this, I'll be happy to change my choice.
Hello Anne,I have picked the Martian from your list, and I can't wait to read it as it sounds really interesting!
Anne rating: 4
Mine: tbc

Hi Aesaan!
I'm pleased to know you liked my collection.
1984 is an excellent choice! I really enjoyed it. I hope you like it.

I'm so glad we were able to pair ourselves up for this challenge. Maybe next month I'll get signed up before the cut-off. However, I'm super excited about reading The Obsession by Nora Roberts from your Read list. Can't wait to see what you pick from my list.

Myra,
I chose Phantom Evil! Between your recommendation and the setting being New Orleans, I needed to know more! I

Hi Tallulah
I have chosen to read A court of thorns and roses by Sarah J. Maas from ur list, first of the series.
P.S. : I am a girl not a boy.
I finished I Am Legend and rated it 5 stars, just like Aesaan. I really loved the ending.Since this was relatively short, I may also give a chance to The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman.
I finished Phantom Evil on Thursday, but haven't had time to update this thread; Myra gave it a 5 and I gave it a 4. (I'm super stingy with my 5 ratings.) I thoroughly enjoyed this book and am grateful to have been introduced to this series. My friends and I are making this our first book club discussion book.
I'm so glad you enjoyed this book. I have read two other books in this series and enjoyed them, as well. The storyline in each book is unique and offers an opportunity to learn more about different members of the team. I am looking forward to reading more books in this series.I think its totally awesome that your book club group is going to make this their first book. Please let me know what everyone thinks.
