Are we tentatively planning to read

I'm going to plan on reading it in early December. I definitely can't get it in for November but I can work it in somehow in early December. I'm good to use the existing thread so we can get involvement from others there. Does that work for you, Cynthia?

Do you want to set a date now or wait till we get closer? I already have the book so I won't have to rely on getting it from library. I have another read that is starting Jan 3 so I could plan on a few days later, maybe Jan 7?
Also, not sure if you have the book already or not, but Amazon US has it free right now (other sites may too, not sure) so in case you need to pick it up...
Does anyone want to read any of these in January with me?
I am about to start The Vicomte, but will push it off if someone wants to finish the Three Musketeers series with me starting from that point.

Are we tentatively planning to read

I say we can start chatting about anytime after Nov 8, as long as we agree to come back to the thread and interact with anyone that reads it later.
I've got about half my BR reading done for this week. I'm probably a little ahead of schedule. I just feel compelled to get the little reads out of the way, because I have some big fat non-BR reads planned.
TL;DR - Read & comment whenever and I'll be there.

lol no worries. I'm not that fast of a reader nowadays :|



I hope no one judges the book by the movie. Book is so much better, to me.

And unfortunately I have already read Pretty Little Liars. but if you like it then I will do a BR of the next book

Great! Nicole from River Sprites is going to join us too :)

I've seen a couple here floating around that I may join, though I've probably already joined more in November and December than I can realistically handle. I'd like to jump in on the Daughter of Smoke & Bone discussion, but I'll be joining really late - probably January.
Also, I saw Lock In around too. If you are planning that for January, I'll join you. Otherwise, I may jump in on that discussion late too.


Mods - can we please get a BR set for Jan 7,2015 for


Sarah, I simply love your choice of books! I want to read them all but alas I am not sure of it being available. However, I can get Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. Just read the blurb and it sounds really interesting.So will join you for that in January.




Incidentally, I am also with you on Mudbound and that starts January 2nd, I believe!

I'm in for this one:)
I will keep my eyes peeled for the thread.

I have Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell downloaded but I haven't read it yet. I would join that one in January, too.

~()~
I'm going to read the following books in November; if anyone is interested in buddy reading one of them with me, please let me know:
Kimberly, I have been wanting to read The Killing Floor. Let me see if I can get it from the library in time and I'll read it with you in November.
Any fantasy series lovers out there who want to read Jim Butcher's Codex Alera series with me? The first book is Furies of Calderon. It will be a re-read but I am planning to read through them all again around the first of the year.

Red Baron - will you set up a BR for Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell for Jan 8th.
And hey girls, I can wait a few days for you two to catch up to me. When it gets close we can keep each other posted.

Awesome :)

I'll get caught up on creating the buddy read threads in the morning.
