Silly Kara. Expecting me to pick 1 out of 69 books....

I've got a hold on it at my library. It's due back on the 9th, so hopefully I'll get it somewhere around then. Lol. Sorry that's not a very specific date.

Here's a thread for us to discuss in. https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Karla works for me.

Hey Karla. My copy is in at the library. I'm hoping to swing by and grab it tomorrow, if the weather here holds.


message 122: by Karla (new)

Karla Sounds good. I'm between books. I just finished, IAD's Kiss of a Demon King and I'll be ready to start when you are. Just let me know!

Whenever you're ready. :)


message 124: by Karla (new)

Karla Can start tonight. First, will use the thread to share my initial thoughts, especially about Jace (it's been awhile. Have to remember what Jace is up to.) For Buddy Reads, I like to discuss as I read, after a couple of chapters, or a WTH. (I use spoiler tags). Does this work for you, or do you like to share after you've finished?

We can definitely discuss as we go & once we're done, and whenever else we feel like it. I'll see you over in the book's thread. :)

message 129: by Jonel (new)

Jonel Anyone up for a buddy read of The Iron Knight (The Iron Fey, #4) by Julie Kagawa The Iron Knight by Julie Kagawa &/or One Heart to Win by Johanna Lindsey One Heart to Win by Johanna Lindsey


message 130: by Ceri (new)

Ceri Gilhespy I would love to have a buddy read with someone, perhaps starting in June? Would be up for reading anything stand-alone - I want to get out of my comfort zone a little, read something I maybe wouldn't normally read. I'd like to read with a buddy, perhaps reach certain chapter markers and then discuss where we're up to?

Anyone with any interesting suggestions for books they would like to read with a buddy, get in touch via private message or reply to this :-)


message 131: by Jonel (new)

Jonel I might be able to be persuaded. What genre were you thinking?

Adrianna [SypherLily] (sypherlily) | 276 comments I was given Game of Thrones as my book challenge for June - would anyone be willing to buddy read that with me? I need more practice with buddy reading!

Also - I have not seen the show, so I'll be going into this with fresh eyes :)
