I want to read this, too. I wouldn't be able to start until the end of Dec and finish in January. I have too much at the beginning. Hopefully others will join later too


Lisa - (Aussie Girl) | 6399 comments Mods, we have a starting date of 28 November for our Buddy Read of Blood Magick by Nora Roberts.

Thank U.

Calling Me Home by Julie Kibler Feb 1st
The Wonder of All Things by Jason Mott Feb 4th
Dollbaby by Laura Lane McNeal Feb 11th
The Secret Keeper by Kate Morton Feb 20th

Sarah - I think the dates for Dollbaby and The Secret Keeper work for you, according to your post. Just let me know if we need to adjust them at all.

Yes, I will join for Secret Keeper. I just bought it but haven't started it yet, so Feb works for me, too.


message 1065: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 3273 comments Mid Feb.? I will have to buy this one too, not on my Overdrive.

Yeah...I just had to post my buddy read addiction to my team thread. I now have multiple buddy reads scheduled out more than 3 months in the future. I'm not sure I'll even have time to fit in any of my BOMs or reviews that I've agreed to. It's a problem....and my "support group" can't seem to stop their addiction either. Wish I could just create more time.

I will join in for this as well. Have been meaning to read it for some time now. And the date suits me as well.

I finally started a spreadsheet for my buddy reads. And color coded each month, February is sad because it only has one book.

Aww... I just added four buddy reads to February, maybe you should join one, you know, just to make February happy. ;)

I had to start one too. It's the only way I know if I have time to join more buddy reads! lol


message 1074: by Kari (new)

Kari (mazuka) | 427 comments there are so many buddy reads going on that I think I'm lost! I think I will need to just look at the list at the beginning and join in on any that I see I have on my kindle waiting to be read. Happy reading everyone!

message 1080: by Jessika (new)

Jessika (evryonesjealous) | 11 comments Sarah and Kristie - Yay! That would be great, thank you. Since you guys are both pretty booked, I could totally wait until January/February to start reading it. When works for everyone? (Cynthia said she's already read it. She needs to read the next one.)

Laura - November 24th works for me, yes. I've been wanting to read the Selection for soooooooooooo long. :)


message 1081: by Kristie (new)

Kristie | 3595 comments I could do sometime in January, my February just got booked. It is a pretty long book and I'll have other reads mixed in that I've signed up for, so it'll probably take me a while to read. If January doesn't work for Sarah, I could wait until March or I can just jump in on the discussion at some point.


message 1082: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 3273 comments Um. What book are we talking about here?


message 1083: by Kristie (new)

Kristie | 3595 comments Sarah - The Name of the Wind (The Kingkiller Chronicle, #1) by Patrick Rothfuss

I've read all 4, but I would love to read them again. It's been awhile.


message 1085: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 5588 comments I made myself a spreadsheet too. I read the first 3 of the Edge series but I might join you for book 4 depending on when you get to it.

Well I say anytime after Feb. 26th. But if you gals do sooner, go ahead. I really can't in January. Too much that month.

I'll still be reading the Secret Keeper on the 26th. We could push it out to March, maybe the 8th, if that's ok with Jessika? I'm not sure if she was planning to wait that long, but that date would work for me. What do you ladies think? Does that work for you, Sarah? Is it too late for you, Jessika?


message 1088: by Jessika (new)

Jessika (evryonesjealous) | 11 comments I would rather do it sooner than March, if at all possible. But if not, I can live in a constant state of anticipation.

I would love to join in if you do January. It's been on my TBR for a while. Will take me a while to as I own paper version.


message 1090: by Kristie (new)

Kristie | 3595 comments I could do the beginning of January, but it will probably take me the whole month to get through it.


message 1091: by Jessika (new)

Jessika (evryonesjealous) | 11 comments The beginning of January is great for me. Any date in particular work best for you guys?


message 1092: by Trinity (new)

Trinity Would anyone want to read Of Poseidon (The Syrena Legacy, #1) by Anna Banks with me in January?

Hi-Five!

will November 25, 2014 work for you on Black Widow? It's released on that day, so I usually listen to the audio on release day.
