Julia, Alexxy, Kristina, Kristin, MacKenzie, Rachael, Amber, Blagica, Mikayla...I had all of you down for reading Outlander....Do you still plan to read Outlander this year? If so, do you know when you want to read it? Will you read just the first book or do you want to attempt the series?
Let me know!
Julia, Joan - I have you both down for reading the Red Queen series this year. Still on the radar? Any ideas on when you want to read them?Let me know!

I think we're reading this over 2 months, starting in July. I'm just reading this one for now.
Mary Pat wrote: "Allie, Lea - I have added Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children to the list for April!"I’m sorry...I think it was posted that Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children was second in the polls, would anyone be up for reading it? And then no one but me responded. I’ve taken on too many buddy/group reads for April now. But I could do it in May if anyone was still interested?
Sorry for the inconvenience :(

Lea posted her interest in reading it in April so I thought it would happen. No problem though. Perhaps Lea can read it in May as well. Lea?

I could wait until May with reading it. I still have a lot of other books planned for april so waiting would be no problem

The second and third place books for the April 2018 group read were The Murder of Roger Ackroyd and The Secret Garden respectively. Is anyone interested in reading either or both of these books as a Buddy Read? As long as two or more people are interested, I will create a thread.

Allie is correct! It is set for May and I have added you to the list of participants!

I've only got the first book so I'm definitely in for that one. Will see if I continue the series this year
hi I would love to do Mansfield park with you. I just got the book in fact I got 12 of her stories in the book for only 0.99 so if you want to do it in june I will do it with you.

I am currently reading book #3 Voyager, but if you all decide to read the whole series this year then I would like to join for book 4-8.
would anyone like to do pride and prejudice or a beautiful mind next month.
thank you Ashley for joining me in a buddy read.
Ronald and Ashley, I have added Pride and Prejudice to May's list and will create a thread for you next month!

There was a buddy read of Mansfield Park in February but if someone else chimes in and wants to read it, I will create a thread!

I see that the second instalment comes out this month, we could read that in november (if we like the first one)?
Eirelyn wrote: "Anyone want to read Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda with me in June (or later)? :D"I am in! Both June and October are fine by me :)
Ilona wrote: "Eirelyn wrote: "Anyone want to read Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda with me in June (or later)? :D"I am in! Both June and October are fine by me :)"
I might be able to squeeze it in in July.
I'm good with whenever for Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda. I have the book on hold and am waiting for it to come in (which shouldn't be any later than June), so I'll read it as soon as I get it, but I can discuss any time, if we need to wait until July or October. :D
Then maybe it’s better to put it down for June. You and Ilona can start and I’ll join as soon as I can. Gonna try and switch some books between June-July. 👍🏻
On another note, I noticed that Legendary by Stephanie Garber is listed as a Buddy Read for May. Wasn't there mention of moving it to June instead since the book isn't actually released until May 29?
Eirelyn wrote: "On another note, I noticed that Legendary by Stephanie Garber is listed as a Buddy Read for May. Wasn't there mention of moving it to June instead since the book isn't actually rele..."Yes, you're right.
Eirelyn wrote: "Susy, that works for me if you're okay with it. :D"
Sure! I can't switch buddy reads but my "single reads" I can move to another month (just got that luminous idea lol)
I was looking at the schedule and the 7th Tower of Glass book is unnamed. I saw a post on Sarah Maas's instragram that the book will be called Kingdom of Ash and is releasing Oct 23, 2018. We should probably move this book back to at least November. It's currently September. In the meantime does anybody want to read the book with prequel novellas, The Assassin's Blade. Maybe sometime July-Oct.

KATHY wrote: "I will soon begin reading "The Life We Bury." Anyone care to join me?"I would join you. I have the book on hold at the library but I’m next in line so I should have it by the first week of May.
Anyone up for Circe, Leah on the Offbeat, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine, The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue, It, or The Knife of Never Letting Go? I know thats a ton of choices but I have a lot of books on my TBR shelf that I want to finish. I'm up for any book at any time! :)
kayla wrote: "Anyone up for Circe, Leah on the Offbeat, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine, The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue"You're welcome to join the Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine buddy read that is planned for September, and I would like to join you for The Knife of Never Letting Go. Any month after June is fine with me :)
kayla wrote: "Anyone up for Circe, Leah on the Offbeat, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine, The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue, [book:It|830..."Hi Kayla, I want to read Circe in May, depending on if I can get it in time from my library.
Ilona wrote: "kayla wrote: "Anyone up for Circe, Leah on the Offbeat, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine, The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue..."I would love to join the buddy eead for September. How about July for The Knife of Never Letting Go?

Idk I kind of keep on confusing myself with replying to other people's messages.
I recently bought a copy of The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue and would be in for a buddy read in June, August or later than August (just not in July bc it's exam season for me and I'm sure I won't get to do much in between)

Kayla, I'll join for Leah on the Offbeat. There's a buddy read for Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda in June, so maybe July for Leah on the Offbeat?Also, are you planning to read the whole Chaos Walking series? I've read The Knife of Never Letting Go but might join for the rest. :D
