January Buddy Read Discussion
Duration: 01 January 2019 - 31 January 2019



Instructions & Info:

Rules:


Use this thread to find your buddy and determine your book! You can always start by posting books, authors or genres you are interested in. When you decide who your buddy will be and what book(s) you're going to read head on over to the FINAL SIGN UP thread (see link at bottom) and tell me your book and buddy there (there will be instructions to follow).


1. If you want to participate post your name and let people know what genre(s) you are interested in reading and/or any books that you're interested in reading.

2. If you already know who you’d like to read with, go to the Final Sign Up thread and post your information for me!

3. Groups of 3 or more are also fine, the more the merrier.

4. I will create Buddy Discussion Threads for each Buddy group and you will be able to start reading and discussing.

5. There are no rules on what, how much or how often to discuss or how best to pace your reading - whatever works best for each individual group.

5.The challenge usually spans a month. If you'd like to start a longer buddy read, you can mention the time frame you have in mind when posting to look for a buddy. If you need more time to finish your book at the end of the month, just drop me a line in the next month's sign ups to keep your thread open.

6.You CAN sign up for more than one Buddy Read...in fact it's encouraged!

ANY QUESTIONS JUST ASK!

Once you have a buddy, go to the January Sign Up Thread and post your book and your buddy.

Hi One - I am reading The Golem and the Jinni The Golem and the Jinni (The Golem and the Jinni, #1) by Helene Wecker this month. Do you want to read that with me? I will probably start it after I finish two other books, so more like the second half of January.

Looks like they're both almost done reading, but will still be discussing the book. Here's the direct link to their discussion thread Erica & Ezi - Becoming, best just drop by and check with them directly. :)
