Firelight is so good. If you guys decide to read on in the series, I'll join you! I only read the first one.
MODS (and anyone else who is interested) - we are going to start reading The Lost Hero on Tuesday November 11th.

So Cool! I grew up listening to that album, we had almost every album that he produced. I remember playing them over and over again. Btw, if you do happen to find the book somewhere, will you join us in reading it? It is an awesome read, I am enjoying it so much. :)

Me too. I've had company all weekend so I'm a little behind. Hopefully I can catch up soon.

So, I've been dying to take on the challenge of reading all of the Discworld series. I'm talking books, short stories, YA novels, all of it. I found a reading guide because I heard that you don't want to necessarily read them in the order they were written. I made a subsequent list from this reading guide to show which books I am going to read one right after the other.
My question is....does anyone want to join me in this huge quest? It sure would get you a lot of Tower Teams Points ;) We wouldn't have to go fast, either. If so, I would like to start in the middle of December...thinking December 20th.

I would totally be up for that. I've been meaning to start Discworld forever. December 20 would work for me.

Yes!!!!! Yay!!!! I was really thinking everyone would look at this post and be like.....um, yeah, no thanks you crazy person.

Also, I am currently reading The Clash of Kings. I see that it's already been opened up for buddy read twice, and I was wondering if someone wanted to resurrect it with me and then continue on in the series. I already read The Game of Thrones and don't want to re-read it, so I would start from the second book and go on. Basically, I would want to start the buddy read almost immediately, or start on the third Book of the series again sometime in mid-December or end of December...maybe December 27th.
Clarification = Looking to read either
Read Clash of Kings onward starting November 10th-17th
Read A Storm of Swords onward starting December 27th
Takers?

I might be interested in reading Clash of Kings, I would say i'm a pretty fast reader but the first book took me 2 weeks to finish it because it's such a big book and I needed to read something else while i was reading it, I did read the first 100 pages of Clash of Kings nearly a year ago and i put it down for a break and haven't picked it back up yet so I would need to read that again. Does it matter how long it takes me to read it?

No, not at all. I usually listen to the audiobooks in concordance with the paperbacks (I try to put longer series reads on audiobooks so that I will want to exercise for long periods of time). And the audiobooks take FOREVER sometimes. So, really, it doesn't have to go fast at all for me. Do you want to have a start date around the 17th? Or would you want to start later?

Taryn, you read too many good books :-) I am considering both of your last requests...I also started a reread of ACOK but didn't make it all the way through. I'd love to make it work but have to look at all my other books first.

I've been in the middle of
for a long time. Like, before the miniseries started. So yes, I' would love the read the 3rd one with someone to that I finish it some time this decade.

lol Okay! Well we're gonna start with Clash of Kings. But I'm definitely going to go through the whole series.

I could be tempted, but I was just going to work through them in publication order. I've already read the first five.

Nov. 19 is better for me too and I'll probably take it slower.

I will join you all for the Clash of Kings and onward reads. I tried to keep up with the group the first go-round and just ran out of time. I'll try again!
Part of me want to join in on the buddy read from A Storm of Swords, when you get to that, as I just finished a Clash of Kings, but I can't seem to make them fit into my reading plan at the moment. I'll have to see when you start up on A Storm of Swords and decide then.
Ok! Cool!
Mods can we also please start the Clash of Kings thread again for November 19th? Or do you want us to just start it up ourselves?
