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


i have never seen the movie, so i won't judge! =D maybe i'll see it after reading the book. With I Am Legend happened the same. I read the book and LOVED IT. Saw the movie and most of the time i was like "what in the world? >_<"

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


I'll probably read the second one as well. I really like the Tv Show.

Sadly the 5th doesn't work for me. I thought i saw someone say january for this book. Maybe i'm wrong. Anyway around the 10th november would be better for me, if that's ok

Taryn, I read the entire D'Artagnan Romances years ago and would love to do a re-read with you! I can't wait to revisit my childhood crushes ;) If I understand it correctly, you want to begin with The Three Musketeers and then go further with the series? I agree to do it in January since November and December are already full. Also each book is quite big so we can take our time. I'm tempted to ask the mods to make a thread for the series (instead of each book individually), is that good with you?

I want to read the Codex Alera series. But not sure how quickly I'd get through it. My library has them in ebook & audio so maybe if I checked out both I can get through it faster. But I don't want to over commit myself to buddy reads.

message 661: by Michelle (new)

Michelle (govmarley) | 3150 comments Should we set up a series read for the entire Codex Alera? I will definitely be reading them again in the next couple of months. Mods, can you set up a featured series read for Jim Butcher's Codex Alera series?

Mods, should requests for a series read go elsewhere? We were looking to start a series read for Jim Butcher's Codex Alera.

I'm planning to start reading at the end of the month.
