I'm sorry, the rest of my month is crammed grrrrr.

I think I signed up for way too many buddy reads this month actually :O

[Rachel]

Ok that's fine don't worry about it :)

Chapter 5: (view spoiler)[Tessa's power certainly is interesting. I'm curious as to what she is. A warlock maybe? (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 10: (view spoiler)[Tessa makes a very convincing Camille. And this vampire "game" of sucking humans dry is chilling. (hide spoiler)]

[Abby]

Chapter 17: (view spoiler)[I knew Mrs. Dark would make a reappearance! (hide spoiler)]

[Abby]

Finished: (view spoiler)[Can't wait to see the rest of the adventures of Tessa and the other London Shadlowhunters! Such a great crew. :) (hide spoiler)]

[Ace]

Can this be reset for June 1st??

[Ace]

I'm on Chapter 5 and OMFG WTF

[Drishti]

Chapter 4: (view spoiler)[That man Tessa saw with missing eyes and sewed-up lips was actually a Slient Brother! I didn't realize this at first. But it suddenly dawned on me when he spoke inside Tessa's head.

Tessa and Will seem to be the type of people I'll get along well with. I always like it when fictional characters feel about books in the same passionate way as me. (hide spoiler)]

[Drishti]

Chapter 9: (view spoiler)[It's so fun to see the ancestors of all the characters we know from TMI! The Lightwoods, the Waylands, the Penhallows, the Herondales... (hide spoiler)]

[Drishti]

Chapter 16: (view spoiler)[Oh, God. Nate turned out to be even foolish than I thought! No wonder De Quincey tricked him! (hide spoiler)]

[Drishti]

Done: (view spoiler)[Oh, my God! I did not see that plot twist coming! I thought that Mr. Mortmain was only a foolish mundane and Nate was an even more foolish mundane! :p

And that ending! Why did there have to be a cliffhanger?! Ugh. (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Chapter 2: (view spoiler)[ I really love Will's character. Also, the Dark sisters seem really scary. I am trying to remember this from the first time that I read the book, which was 2 years ago. I am glad I am rereading this book now. (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Chapter 8: (view spoiler)[ YAY!! Magnus and Camille when they were together. I remember my friends told me to read this in the publication date order and it will make sense. I have to say that I does help out reading it in that order. Also, I really love Tessa, Will, and Jem. I do not like Jessamine. She's a bit too self-centered for my tastes. (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Chapter 16: (view spoiler)[ Wow... Nate is really gullible. I never knew a person could be so foolish. I am actually glad I am re-reading this. This time around, I am catching the things I missed the first time, so it is interesting to read it again. (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Ending Thoughts: (view spoiler)[ I love this book. The ending was a cliffhanger, but the whole series is amazing. I think that Will's harshiness was unjust, but there is always a reason for these things to happen. I can't wait to re-read the next two books. (hide spoiler)]

Are you able to also reset this for the 24th April instead of the 10th which is what Nicole initially asked for? We're changing it to the 24th :)

[Nicole's Book Diaries]

Joining and yes, please change it.

Yeah, this is a big problem of mine with this book so far. (view spoiler)[ Will and Jace are pretty much the same person, which seems lazy. I get that they are supposed to be related through the generations of whatever, but Clare could find something more subtle to connect them, rather than their entire personality. (hide spoiler)]

[Paula]

I've already started this book, but I have a ways to go in it so I'll join in on this read.

[Shay]

How old is Tessa in the beginning, when she meets Will?

[Maddie]

@Nicole: Are you still wanting to read this book on the 24th?

[Nicole's Book Diaries]

Maddison wrote: "@Nicole: Are you still wanting to read this book on the 24th?"

Yes I can still do that!

[Maddie]

Okay. There's a chance I won't be starting it on the 24th... I'm really disappointing myself lately :(

[Nicole's Book Diaries]

@Maddison I can push it back. When would you be able to read it? I still have other reads to do.

[Maddie]

@Nicole: I don't know.. I still might be able to read it then. I just don't know. Keep it for this date, but I also need to finish my current read (130 pages left), read Private (only 200 pages) and Ali's Pretty Little Lies (300 pages) so it shouldn't be too bad. I should get majority through Private today after I finish my current. So keep it for 24th :)

[Maddie]

No clue when I'm starting this... Didn't even finish my current read, so haven't even started Private, let alone Allie's Little Lies...

[Maddie]

Not reading Private or Ali's Little Lies for a while. I'll focus on this one and Night Circus for a while until I get them done.

[Maddie]

Starting this tonight :p After I finish my current read. Either this one or Night Circus, and if I don't start it tonight it'll be the one after Night Circus.

[Maddie]

Splitting this one up :) So I'll read 69 pages a day of this. Gives me time to finish it this month, so I can count it for the monthly :) I'll start tonight/tomorrow. If I start tomorrow I'll read the first 128 pages. Oh jeez that's actually a whole heap..

[Maddie]

I'll read 128 pages of this one tomorrow. Well try to anyway :) Have a lot of study to do, and 56 pages of Night Circus XD Loving this schedule!

[Nicole's Book Diaries]

@Maddison Take your time. I'm behind on everything lol. If you want we can reschedule.

[Maddie]

Haha sorry I'm sticking with this one. I've been stuffing my challenges around for ages and I want to get on with this one. It'll take me a week though. And we can wait for ages for CoFA, no problem with that XD

[Maddie]

Starting this now :D

[Maddie]

My schedule:
24th - 69
25th - 128
26th - 197
27th - 266
28th - 335
29th - 404
30th - end

[Maddie]

This is my third or fourth time reading this book, so I'll only really comment on what still surprises me, or what I want to comment on XD

[Maddie]

7% (view spoiler)[I remember always being confused with which was Mrs. Dark and which was Mrs. Black. Think I got it now though. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

11% (view spoiler)[And now it starts :/ I can't wait to meet Jem properly though. I love him. He's my favourite. Not like this Will character :/ Bleh so arrogant. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

I'm on page 52/128 for today. So I should definitely get this read at some point :)

[Nicole's Book Diaries]

Uhh I'll start today then XD

[Maddie]

Haha you don't need to, I just want to follow that schedule so I can count it for this monthly challenge, as well as another time-restricted challenge this month.

[Nicole's Book Diaries]

@Maddison Ahh I see. Sorry I've been so busy this month with school starting back up but I'll get started tomororw. I'm almost done with my other BR.

[Maddie]

That's fine :) No stress at all.

[Maddie]

15% (view spoiler)[Is it weird how I read Will's part in his accent, but I don't read the others? And I don't read Tessa's as American because she's the main character.. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Pausing this for a while while I catch up with Night Circus.

[Maddie]

Doing 1 sprint of this now, and then hopefully tomorrow I'll read more. Definitely won't catch up though. No idea when I will XD Before the end of the month for sure!
