Can I please be added to The Night Circus in August (so for me that's two August reads, the Night Circus and The Edible Woman)

Would love to, but already have 5 reads planned for October (my new goal is to read less....love to read but want to be doing other stuff as well....). November might work though.

[Lindsay]

FYI The Odyssey is a Goodreads Deal today for $1.99

[Lisa]

Lindsay, you can also get it for free on both Amazon and Project Gutenberg (as well as other places, I'm sure)

Would anyone be interested in reading Queens of Geek and/or The Seafarer's Kiss with me in August? I also have Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone on my tbr for august as a reread if anyone wants to join?

[Joan]

Here are some books I have to read this year for my challenge. I thought I would throw some out there to see if anyone was interested in buddy reads for them:

Tarzan of the Apes
Illuminae - I probably won't read the rest of the series this year unless I absolutely fall in love with it.
Before the Fall
Behind Closed Doors
The Girl in the Ice

[Joan]

And I'd like to be added to Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine

I have all except Tarzan on my TBR but I’m not sure I will manage to get to them this year... Definitely not in July, already have 10 books planned (+ 2 to finish).

[Allison]

I would read Behind Closed Doors with you, Joan!

As long as it wasn’t this month...I looked up available copies from my library and every copy is due back near the end of July.

August would work for me.

How about The Girl in the Ice in December?
If I like it I might continue the series in January.

[Allison]

I’ll put a hold on it then. Sounds good!

December is good for The Girl in the Ice!

[Allison]

I think I have that one on my kindle and December is great.

[Joan]

I forgot to mention Angela's Ashes. I thought that would be fun for a buddy read too if anyone was interested.

[Allison]

I could do that one too lol. September?

Hi Dlyn. I’ve managed to get a Copy from my local library so sooner the better... but can just renew it if you want to start later on I’m just going with the flow with reading at moment.
