2018 Buddy Reads - Introduction & Sign Up

[Allison]

^^^I’m cool with that for All the Light We Cannot See

[Eirelyn]

lol Susy, I usually start my monthly book scheduling with Buddy Reads, but there aren't any for April that I want to join. I haven't yet decided on what else to read on my own for that month. :D

May would work fine for me too for All the Light We Cannot See. :)

[Susy]

Yay, cool, May it is!

[Lindsay]

I’d like to join the February read for Kindred, please.

[Rachael]

I think there was a buddy read for Les Misérables not that long ago (late 2017?) but I didn't manage to join in and I was wondering if we could do another one? Myself and Bibliophile Britt are thinking of reading it in February/March if anyone else wants to join

[Anastasia]

I would love to read les miserables.

[Ilona]

Would anyone be up for a buddy read of The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger? I absolutely hated it in high school, but really want to give it another chance :)

[BMAD_addicts]

I love Patterson and would jump in on this with you, but I've already read the 1st three books in, I think, every one of his series. XD As it is, though, I may stop in and comment whenever you guys decide to read.

I would like to join the buddy read for The Girl with All the Gifts in February.

[Rachael]

I have Outlander on my tbr so would it be ok if I joined the buddy read too?

[Susy]

Hi Mansfield Park and The Mysterious Affair at Styles buddies! Which one are we starting first? Want to get ready for February :)

[Joan]

I’m reading Mansfield Park after The Girl With All The Gifts. I should have that one done by Sunday.

[Scott]

I’m doing styles first

[Dianne]

I would like to put The Princess Bride on the table for possibly February starting on the 14th. I have one person already interested but we are working out the dates.

I just wanted to see if anyone else wanted to get in on this.

[Kimberly]

I might be interested in The Princess Bride if I can fit it in!

You don't necessarily have to read them on the same days as long as it is read in the same month :)

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Just thought I'd see if anyone would like to join me for The Hole: A Novel by Hye-Young Pyun for the February Olympic Hosts monthly challenge this month? I saw a few people on that thread that were planning on reading it.

[Lynn]

Hi Mary Pat....sorry we're late posting here, but Catherine and I from the Salems Lot buddy read would like to read the Stephen King short story collection in Nightmares and Dreamscapes during February and March. Glad to open it up to interested others.
