Cathie- are you still planning on reading this? I've made some remarks on the thread for the book if you are. Maybe you are still waiting for it from the library?

Ah, I have another one starting on the 23rd so I may have to wait to read it. It's for my 12+2 challenge for 2015 anyway so I have to wait until 2015. Maybe I'll still comment on the thread and see if I can get any BR points for the tower teams!

message 1627: by Jen (new)

Jen Sabo | 547 comments Cassie V and I have been reading The Vampire Academy Series together. We are on the second book. The first two books were past buddy reads. However, I just noticed that the last 4 books are not buddy reads.

Mods, can you either create a thread for a series read, or make 4 invidual buddy reads.

If you do the buddy reads here are the start dates:

Shadow Kiss- 12/20
Blood Promise- 12/23
Spirit Bound- 12/25
Last Sacrifice- 12/28

Steven (gallifreyan1218) | 5272 comments Mods, can you set up a buddy read for Stacie and myself for Golden Son (Red Rising Trilogy, #2) by Pierce Brown , sequel to Red Rising (Red Rising Trilogy, #1) by Pierce Brown (which already has a buddy read thread)?

It doesn't release until January, so you can put a January date on it, but Stacie and I both have ARCs from Netgalley and want to discuss while we're currently reading! :)

I think I will join too, but I can't decide if I want to listen to it or read it. So...I ordered both from the library and I'll see.


message 1639: by Kristie (new)

Kristie | 3595 comments Would anyone be interested in reading The Christmas Jars by Jason Wright with me? I just started, but could wait for others to get the book. It is super short (122 pages), so should be pretty quick. I'd like to read it sometime in the next week or so. Holiday spirit and all. :)

I can read it with you. Just put it on hold at the library so will probably be tuesday/wednesday before it comes in. I can let you know when it arrives.

Sounds great! I'll set the date as the 23rd, but if it comes in later we'll just start whenever you're ready.

Mods - Could we get a thread set up with a date of the 23rd?

message 1645: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (rebeccasg) | 3793 comments Awesome! I can read All the Light We Cannot See anytime in January so we can start a thread and the just figure out the date whenever you get it. Does that work?
