One Word Kill

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

David, Karen and I are doing a buddy read of starting right now! Everyone is welcome to join!

There are no set chapters per day, we just read at our own paces and start each post with how far along you are, i.e., Chapter #, %, using spoilers where needed. Have fun!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Wow, awesome! It’s been TOO long. I’m starting the read tonight. I’ll be slow but steady!

[Nancy]

I just got this a few days ago. I’ll try to join in.

[Karen’s Library]

Awesome!!! I'll probably be slower than normal, but I'll get there!! Nice to be back with all my buds again! Woot!

[Nancy]

I am not sure when I will start but I plan to join you guys. Hopefully next week. I was assigned to read Dune (in another group we have a Bossy Book Challenge and my partner gave me Dune). I started last night.

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

No problem, I will get a head start so I don't fall too far behind y'all. I'm around 8% in and have no clue where this is going.

Well, I'm at 15% and still no clue as to what's going on. Chemo and D&D. 😐

I'm doing a binge of the Dune books right now on audiobook. It's my gazillionth time reading these. 😬

I noticed that on Instagram.

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

I'm up to 18% and things just got a lot weirder! The synopsis says this is like D&D meets Stranger Things. I've never watched Stranger Things, though, so I have no idea. But I'm expecting strangeness LOL!

[Karen’s Library]

35% in and holy schnikes, this just got to the really good stuff. Actually, I was enjoying the D&D and the science, but now... mind blown!!

YAY! Sounds promising then :)

[Nancy]

Can’t wait to read this!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Wow, not I'm REALLY interested to get further along. Stuck at 12%.

[Karen’s Library]

It got interesting at about 18%, but big cool twist at 35%. 👍🏻

[Nancy]

I’m so behind in my reading.....ugh....

[Patricia]

I literally just read this and saw the group was buddy reading! I thought it was an interesting story.

Me too!!! Tooooooo many hours of work. I can only read for a short time and have to switch to an audiobook. My brain is fried.

I'm still at 35%. 😳

That's a good way to describe it so far... Interesting. 😬

[Karen’s Library]

I'm at 80% and really enjoying this one. I sure as heck didn't see that this was a (view spoiler)[time travel book and that Nick was traveling back to his younger self. The timey wimey wibbley wobbley stuff is making my head spin! HA! (hide spoiler)]

I'm getting a kick out of their D&D game!! I've never played but could see myself being addicted if I had played as a kid/teen.

The math and science is fun. Nancy, I think you'd like this one.

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Sorry, it's been a while since I checked in but I've been plodding along, currently at around the halfway point. I'm really enjoying watching this story develop. Complex characters and a cool SciFi twist. Oh the paradoxes! I look forward to reading your big twist/spoiler, Karen, just as soon as I catch up :)

Awesome! Once we finish, feel free to chime in with your more detailed thoughts or you can add some hidden spoilers now that we can read later :)

David, you can read the spoiler if you're halfway through. It's happened by then.

[Karen’s Library]

I just finished and overall, this was a quick fun read. I really liked Nick and Mia. The parts about Nick dealing with his cancer were hard to read. I see this is book 1 of a trilogy, so I'm interested to see where this story goes.

Ha! Just read it. Yeah, I had the same reaction. Those things always confuse me which is why I could never write this kind of book. But I like to read them! Glad you liked it KB :)

[Nancy]

I am starting tonight! I haven’t read any spoilers. I saw David mention paradoxes. I have completely forgotten what the blurb said about this book. Paradoxes has me super excited though!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Excellent! You'll probably catch up to me, I'm still stuck at 65%.

[Nancy]

I stopped last night after finishing ch 6. The first few chapters were slow and it finally got interesting after Nick met Demus.

[Nancy]

I’m finished....

I have some questions.....(view spoiler)[I am confused about the memories being erased. Demi’s keeps saying “this is how I remember it happening” over and over again. The only part he doesn’t remember is how he dies. But he also tells Nick that he wakes up in a park a few days later with no memories of the last few weeks. Nick does make a skeleton outline of notes skeleton wouldn’t be as detailed as Demus’ memories are. So did Demus lie about erasing his memories as far back as he says or this a big boo boo the author made? Also, why wouldn’t you erase Simon’s, John’s and Elton’s memories? They remember being at John’s dad work and they remember why. (hide spoiler)]
