It sure does help to link the post like everyone else does so we don't have to go looking for it. Your request is easy to miss without a book link especially when there is lots of chatter.

Shelby (stang_lee) | 1978 comments Ok so I have a bunch of books I was trying to get to this month...anyone want to join a BR for any of these?

Wizard and Glass (The Dark Tower, #4) by Stephen King A Discovery of Witches (All Souls Trilogy, #1) by Deborah Harkness Dune (Dune Chronicles, #1) by Frank Herbert Insurgent (Divergent, #2) by Veronica Roth The Dark Forest (Remembrance of Earth’s Past, #2) by Liu Cixin The Client by John Grisham The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison The Diabolic (The Diabolic, #1) by S.J. Kincaid Heartless (Parasol Protectorate, #4) by Gail Carriger The Golden Compass (His Dark Materials, #1) by Philip Pullman A Knight of the Word (Word & Void, #2) by Terry Brooks Hidden Figures The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Mathematicians Who Helped Win the Space Race by Margot Lee Shetterly Vengeance in Death (In Death, #6) by J.D. Robb Love Bites (Argeneau #2) by Lynsay Sands Santa Olivia (Santa Olivia, #1) by Jacqueline Carey No Rest for the Wicked (Immortals After Dark #3) by Kresley Cole

I know it's a long list, but I'm open to any of them in any particular order at any time. I read pretty fast so I'd just love to have some company on any of them. :) (And really this is only a partial list my next two months can mostly be found on my July Must Read shelf. I just didn't feel right putting somewhere around 50 books in this message. ;))

I'd be up for A Discovery of Witches (All Souls Trilogy, #1) by Deborah Harkness and Love Bites (Argeneau #2) by Lynsay Sands . I have the Harkness book already and can start anytime. The Sands book I could get for next week.

If you don't have too much on your plate already I would be interested in The Golden Compass That is a book I've been planning to read all year lol.
I am flexible on a start date, it can be honestly whenever.

The Golden Compass (His Dark Materials, #1) by Philip Pullman

I'm happy to start it whenever. It's been on my plate for ages and I've never gotten around to reading it. Anytime works for me. I'm pretty close to a book a day reader, so I can fit it in wherever. What about starting it around the 23rd? That way I can read it before I head home on vacation and not have to haul the paperback with me. :)

Christina if we did start it earlier and you can't get to it till August, if we were extended I'd happily come back and discuss it with you.

the 23rd sounds good to me :) and Christina, I agree with Shelby, if you start it after that in August I will definitely stay in the thread and talk about it!

I can save it for another month. What's one more when I've had it well over a year? I'll check back in with you in a couple weeks time and ask for a thread to be set up.

That's brilliant timing, I want to finish Taken and, hopefully, start and finish The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul. Shall we ask for a thread for the 20th?
