I'd like to join!
I would like to do this one as well! I have another buddy read staring on that day, so I would go slower, but I'd like to join :)
That's okay, feel free to take your time Lienitte, I will probably go slow too. :)
I've only gotten through the first chapter or two so far, but I'd like to start off the discussion with the fact that I love Alice in Wonderland retellings, and this one is no exception so far :)It's cool that (view spoiler)
I like the connection to the age-old story already. Can't wait to read more!
I'm not sure I will be able to get to this just now, I haven't been as busy as I am now in a long time.. :D I will try, but probably in a week.
I'm glad you're liking it, Nicole! :)
That's okay Lienitte, take your time :) I am on the fourth chapter. Good so far, everything I thought to say Nicole got there first :)

I just got the audio book for this, so that will make reading it go faster. I usually am reading one book and listening to another, so I hope I catch up sometime soon :)
We are not that far in anyway, so it's okay :) Nicole yes we are :)
I hope to start this one soon, but I am BEHIND! LOL
I'm only on chapter 3 myself lol
Those first few chapters were awesome! :)
I had put my initial thoughts up above in messages 6 and 7 too. Can't wait to get some discussion going on this one!
Still haven't been able to start. Hopefully tonight or this weekend.
I am going away in a few days so I am trying to get as much read before I go away as possible, otherwise I will finish it when I get back. only away for 6 days so not too bad.
No worries, Emma!
Anyone made anymore progress? I will try to get back to it in the next few days :)
I am So behind....on every BR and I am so sorry! I just have had life happen so it's been difficult to get in any real reading time.
It's okay Vicki, I hope everything is alright. I am behind in some too.
Everything is great but I'm just really busy even more than usual lately. Thanks for caring. :)
It's okay, we have been doing a far few buddy reads lately, you seem really nice, it's been fun getting to know people in this group :)
This book seems pretty long too. I've been working on it for a few days and I'm on chapter 13!Morpheus: (view spoiler)
General: (view spoiler)
Thanks, Vicki.Nicole, don't think I am quite there yet, will read more tomorrow. Time for me to hit the hay :)
Just finished chapter 8, Sorry Nicole for taking so long. Did not realise how far behind I was. Is good though. Reading on my kindle so forty% the way through.How is everyone else getting on?
It's all good guys, I'm still only about 60-something% myself. Taking my time with this one as well! Had to back out of some of my other buddy reads cuz I've just gotten way busy and distracted, but I'm determined to stick with this one!
That's good. I am trying to get some finished I keep taking my time then ending up with about ten on the go. Not good. but I'll catch up :)
Finally finished this! Was good but not as good as I'd been expecting. The pace felt really fast, like it was just barely skimming the surface at times. (view spoiler)
Interesting spin on the wonderland story though! I liked that it was a dark, almost scary at times, version. Very unique.
It is good. I am looking forward to finishing it. :) Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
