Do you have a book you want to read, but don't want to go it alone? Think it would be more fun to read with someone else? Then find yourself a buddy here.

To request a buddy read, make a comment in this thread stating the name of the book, the author, and the start date (if you have a preference).
We'll create a thread as soon as there is any interest in a buddy read.

Great. I'm currently reading something that I would like to finish first before I dive into next read. I have Sargrasso sea so I don't need to wait in line. When would you like to read it?

Alanna | 7 comments Alright, I don't think I've ever seen anyone do this here, but I've been slumping for months and I'm tired of it. I'm down to buddy read anything I own and haven't read, but since that's about 200 books I'm just going to drop the shelf link.
