I've heard so much good stuff about the series, I finally decided to give it a whirl.. despite how daunting the size of the books! lol

Glad to hear they keep getting better!

[Ezi, Factory Superintendent]

another book I think I will listen...so I would like a buddy:
by Robin York

[VNerdbooks]

There is no such thing as too much sun lol.
I'm in South Wales, about 20mins drive from the Brecon Beacons, beautiful to look at with stunning views, however there is a reason that it is so green here .......Rain lol

I would love the extended warm season of Dallas! Indiana has crazy weather... all 4 seasons... sometimes all in the same day.

It sounds beautiful.

That's on my TBR list Ezi, but as usual it's not available for us measly UK members lol.
And they wonder why we go elsewhere to get books!!!!

I have that too Ezi. I can join you and Kristin, if y'all don't mind.

[VNerdbooks]

Not sure when I'll get round to reading that one Paris, hopefully it will fit into SS somewhere.

Ezinwanye, I grew up in Grand Prairie! :-) I don't miss the 100+ degree for 3 months summers, but I wish I was in Big D for the winter. Here in Minnesota our winters are 6 months long (minimum!)

[SandyC]

OK, does anyone want to read one of these?

Amen sista!!!!! You can never have to much sun!

[VNerdbooks]

We get about a week of full sun a year haha, other than that it's grey and raining!
Hopefully there will be a few sexy vampires living round here, they could have set twilight in my village haha!

Well I'll keep a look out for your review since I haven't gotten to it yet.

[VNerdbooks]

I'll give you a shout before and we can BR it if you like.....might be late September though lol

Me! I would be in for Elantris, The Way of Kings, The Goldfinch or The Luminaries, if you'd like to read with me :).

SilverRaindrops, now the hard part is picking one! Is there one you'd rather read more than the others? They all look sooooooooooo good!

[VNerdbooks]

wow after seeing all of my threads up, I have DEFINITELY got myself carried away this month haha!

That's what I thought while putting them up! *lol*

**Facepalm!

[K~Terror]

Vicci Audio Nerd wrote: "**Facepalm!"

LMAO! If you find yourself in a bind and need to push Closed Hearts to the following month, I promise I won't throw myself on the floor, kicking & crying.

However, no promises with Monsters of Men HA!

[Ezi, Factory Superintendent]

Vicci Audio Nerd wrote: "**Facepalm!"

I am excited for all of mine with you Vicci

[VNerdbooks]

Yes they all sound really good

Sandy, from the looks of it, what about The Luminaries?
It is huge, and a buddy read might just be the thing to actually help pick it up. (And I am really excited for it.)

SilverRaindrops wrote: "Sandy wrote: "SilverRaindrops wrote: "Sandy wrote: "OK, does anyone want to read one of these?ElantrisThe Way of Kings

Sure. Let's do it! :-)

Thread is set up and ready!

[Lindsay]

Would anyone like to join me in reading any of these books: Middlesex, Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, Cloud Atlas or 1Q84

I'm looking to read some of the 'modern canon' that I haven't gotten around to in recent years.

Thank you -- I mean Fever 1793
and Lost Lake

Sorry, kinda new at this...

[Bailee]

Hi guys. I've never done a buddy read before, so I don't know how it works, but I want to read

1. The Uglies
2. If I Stay
3. Confessions of a Murder Suspect

Or anything else. I'm really into mysteries and Young Adult stories.

[Christina T]

Can you keep Lauren and My "One Good Earl Deserves a Lover" thread open for September please?

[Runell]

Sandy, I'd love to read Dragonfly in Amber with you.

[Runell]

Lindsey, I'd really like to read Cloud Atlas with you. I hear it's a hard book to understand so maybe the adage 'two heads are better than one' applies here.

[SandyC]

Runell wrote: "Sandy, I'd love to read Dragonfly in Amber with you."

Ok! :-) I'll start a thread later tonight. (Unless you want to!)
