I've read many books that way, once in the blue moon when work is slow.

[Monica]

Kasia: I don't like it too much, but if it's the only way sometimes I'll do it. :D

[Kasia]

I know what you mean, I agree hehe. But anytime I get to sneak some reading in, I'm happy.

[Meli]

I just picked it up at my local library yesterday!

[Monica]

:)

[Walter]

Does your library offer some version of Interlibrary loan, Stacker? I now have the August pick on hold, was the only way I was able to borrow a copy of the July pick.

Going to get the book tomorrow after I'm done work. I am super stoked!

[(shan) Littlebookcove]

I'm 68% in and so far I'm shocked. not going put spoilers in but this is a very addictive read.

[Adriana]

I'm in!! :)

[Mike]

I finished Bird Box yesterday.

[(shan) Littlebookcove]

it's like one of those books that totally keeps you on the edge of your seat. and really makes you think. I think I'm going be talking about this book for week's.

Mike, did you read it on an e-reader and, if so, would you be willing to lend it to me? Our library doesn't have it, and $14.99 is more than I generally want to spend for a group read book.

If you are willing to lend it, just PM me, and I'll give you my e-mail address. Thanks.

[Mike]

Hi Deborah. I belong to Audible, so I used one of my monthly credits to get the audio book. I'm not sure if it's sharable.

[Jason]

This one does sound fantastic. I'll try to speed up my other commitments. But if not, I would still love to hear what you all think of it.

[Marc-Antoine]

Just ordered my copy, I'm in!

[[deleted user]]

I just came back from the book store and spend over $50. My gawd I have an addiction... but I did get the book :p. SUCCESS!

[Jia]

My very first group read ever, quite excited:)

[Marc-Antoine]

Just got an notice that my copy has shipped, I hope I receive before I leave for vacation on Friday... If not, I may be a little late on the discussion. This looks like a good one.

[Monica]

It's my first one too!

[Addy]

Read the first chapter. Very good start.

[Amanda]

I feel the same, about an hour and half in on audible and enjoying it greatly. Can't wait to go to bed tonight is I can listen to more of it. The tension is already creeping in, and I'm enjoying the way it's flipping between the 2 timelines.

[Coatesj]

Read it cover to cover in one night. So enjoyable, so creepy.

[Monica]

thanks!

[Latasha]

I'm going to get mine today! I look forward to starting this book. everyone seems to like it.

[Monica]

I started it too and I am super intrigued. What's happening!?

[Latasha]

Ohh! That sounds fun!

[Jia]

Finished!
Considering how little we actually *see* throughout the whole book, I think the author has really achieved something very special here!

[Deborah]

Does anyone who's finished the book have a lendable ebook? I really want to read this one, but I'm still balking at the $14.99 price tag, especially since I rarely reread books.

[ZoeyBB]

Yay so excited! Just ordered it. Hope it comes by this weekend! :)
