I'm also interested in Station Eleven.

Devann (devannm) | 2778 comments @Elen i've been meaning to reread good omens before the show comes out so i could do that any time

@Lexi well i just noticed that european travels is over 700 pages so i guess we'd better start that early lol i'm kind of worried now bc that is LONG and the first one was only okay to me but i still want to try it so how about the 5th for that and maybe the 19th for sandman slim?

I could do Paper Princess and/or Call Me By Your Name at any time, Elen


message 1107: by Karishma (new)

Karishma (karishmanewar) I have read Good Omens twice and also listened to the radio dramatisation. Enjoy. It's really good!


message 1108: by Deanna (new)

Deanna | 3529 comments @Elen - I'd be interested in Good Omens as well anytime in August.

@Devann - I'll do Sandman Slim with you. The 19th works for me. I also want to read Catwoman: Soulstealer, but it will probably be the end of August before my library puts the book in circulation since the publication date is August 7.

I have the same worries but lets give it a try. Both dates work for me.

Elen | 1273 comments @SandyL and Shelby, Would 27/28 July work for Paper Princess?

@SandyL - Will Call Me By Your Name at the beginning of August or the beginning of the next week work for you?

@Lexi - Would mid-August work for Station Eleven? [Like 15th or so?]

@Devann, JanEyre9, and Deanna - When would you like to read Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch? I am thinking about the beginning of August, something from 4th and so one... I can't wait to see the TV show :)


Edit:
PS! I am pretty flexible on the dates, but I want to read them before 3/4 of the month.

THe 4th works for me as well.

Devann (devannm) | 2778 comments @everyone lol, the 4th is fine for me as well for good omens.

I've been on the waiting list for The Alice Network for quite a while at my library. If I get it in time, I'll plan to join you for this BR!


message 1129: by Devann (new)

Devann (devannm) | 2778 comments @Tina and whoever i was talking to earlier, if anyone does get a copy of catwoman before the end of the month just drop back in here and we can set something up :)

Karishma (karishmanewar) Anyone up for The Duchess Deal and The Governess Game?

The second book releases August 28th.


message 1137: by Karishma (new)

Karishma (karishmanewar) Also Foundryside and The Prince on our close to release date?


message 1138: by Lexi (new)

Lexi | 4247 comments I cannot keep track of all the requests at this point but was someone asking about either The Bear and the Nightingale (Winternight Trilogy, #1) by Katherine Arden or Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik ? I was interested in both but couldn't find a past post or I may be remembering wrong.

Also, I really want to read Witchmark (Witchmark, #1) by C.L. Polk if anyone else wants to.


message 1139: by Devann (new)

Devann (devannm) | 2778 comments i think someone was asking about the bear and the nightingale and i said i could do it sometime in august and they said they would check back in a few weeks so i'm still up for it if anyone else is

Sounds good. Before we decide on a date, I think there is some confusion or at least I am confused on if they still count for TT in August.

Copied from the captains group. A message from moderator Sonia.

Okay, so, just a heads up because my internetz is wonky and goodreads on my phone sucks.

Buddy Reads, Spells & Classes end July 31st - Winners announced the day after.

BOMs and points per page continue till extension.

Tri-Wizard Maze starts July 31st (Harry Potter's birthday) and no banked books are allowed



message 1144: by Devann (new)

Devann (devannm) | 2778 comments @Lexi they apparently don't count for august so maybe we should wait until september so we can focus more on triwizard during august? unfortunately i'm already in like 5 BRs in august but i feel like it would be better now to not pile more on

@Devann,Elen, and Deanna - Still good with an August 4th start date for Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch or do you want to move it before 7/31 so it counts for TTVI?


message 1146: by Devann (new)

Devann (devannm) | 2778 comments i don't really want to rush to finish it before the end of the month and i've got another BR starting tomorrow anyway but if everyone else wants to then you guys can go ahead


message 1147: by JanEyre9 (new)

JanEyre9 No I'm with you Devann, I'd rather keep it as is and not feel rushed. I have other BR going on now, I just wasn't sure if anyone else wanted it for the challenge.

Christina (chrissy__) | 3007 comments Laura, thanks for the info!


message 1149: by Yare (new)

Yare Espinoza | 14 comments Is anyone interested in reading Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer with me?


message 1150: by Devann (new)

Devann (devannm) | 2778 comments @JanEyre9 hopefully it will fit into one of the triwizard requirements in some way and even if we don't get buddy read points we will still be able to slot it in somewhere for the challenge
