Would anyone be interested in reading Hogfather with me in December??

I have added this to the suggestions. If you don't find someone to read it this December, there is an ongoing Discworld buddy read and they'll probably get to this one early next year :)

Our monthly publication order schedule puts Hogfather in June 2021, completely the opposite season as thematically appropriate.

Hi, SaraKat! Since I'm rather behind with The Grace of Kings, oshizu has suggested that we extend our November buddy read of The Wall of Storms throughout December as well. I totally agree since that monster is 880 pages long! Could you please adjust that for us? Sorry to be a pain...

Thank you!

Hi SarahKat, audiobooks are the better way for me to read books so I tried listening to The Searcher but the narrator is not working for me, so if it's okay can I join the buddy read for This Tender Land instead? My apologies.

Please add me to the buddy read for A Christmas Carol. Excited to participate in my first buddy read!!

[Eileen]

Anyone would like to read Two Can Keep a Secret by Karen M. McManus in December ? :)
It can wait until January though :)

Alyana, since This Tender Land buddy read has already been posted, you need not ask to join the BR. Jump into the thread and join the discussion. Also, since Krish and you were the only two readers for The Searcher, I would suggest you to let Krish know of your reason for backing out and share your feedback of the audiobook in the buddy read thread (if not already done), just so that Krish doesn't feel left out. It's perfectly okay to not like a book and back out! :)
