[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Okay, sure!

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Hi Priyansha! I'll start reading today :)

[Priyansha]

I'll start now :)

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Great :)

[Priyansha]

how's it going Aarja?
Pretty good for me so far :)

also, can we pls decide on the no. chapters we'll be completing in two days ?
it'll be easier to discuss then..n having a target would make it better with my exams approaching..
xcuse me for my noobness.

Sure, we can! Today I wasn't able to read much, hopefully, I'll read at night, but how about we complete it till maybe chapters 8, 9 or 10? Let me know :)

[Priyansha]

That'll be perfect..so shall we take it as 6-10 chapters every two days?

Hmm, it's quite interesting and humorous, but not gripping or pacing :/

[Priyansha]

Yeah..I'm not hooked up to it yet

[Ayesha]

How are you guys liking it so far?? :D

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

I am thinking of reading one more book along..it's very slow. But also, it's really witty and humorous! :D

Yes it's humorous, made me laugh at certain chapters. But I think it's making me a slump. And not going anywhere, like they face obstacles and they are hungry, starting chapters were pretty good but yesterday I just could not invest myself in it.

Yes it's humorous, made me laugh at certain chapters. But I think it's mak..."Oh same...I'm having to put effort to read the book. It gets really boring at times.

[Priyansha]

I am on chapter 12. I have to finish it today, I want something new so bad!!!

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Me too! God, I'm a slow reader. But I read other books pretty fast. I NEED to go read it. I'm on Chapter 4. By today I hope to complete 10. Wish me luck!

n I can understand...this book can't be compared to any other book :/

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

I know!

[Ayesha]

I changed my mind, I just cannot read it today. I'll finish it tomorrow, or will I?? ;-)


PS- Will they kill the dragon?? That's going to be tragic for me. :(

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

I'll try to finish most of it today. I just want to go clean with the next book in my TBR.

[Ayesha]

I finished reading The Hobbit, or There and Back Again
( Finalllllyyyy!!!!!!!! )
Thank you for having me in this buddy thread, it was a comfort to see that my feelings regarding this book are not mine alone. <3
Happy reading. :D

That's so nice of you Priyansha. <3

I agree!! It has every fantasy creature and still it's less magical. If anyone of you have read LOTR then please say that's way better than this!!

[Priyansha]

I haven't but I've heard my friends say that it's better
I so badly hope that it's true

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

I'm thinking of DNFing, but I can continue later. Not good, at all, for me. And yep, we can have a BR soon!

[Priyansha]

oh!
no problem

yeah hopefully very soooonnn :)

[Aahana, aka Aelin Whitethorn :)]

Haha you didn't like it? Tolkien is very proficient in his world building, but his books can get so.. monotonous sometimes.

[Aahana, aka Aelin Whitethorn :)]

Diplomacy can go to hell. They're just boring :p

[aarja, Founder & Groovy Thinker :D]

Yes, they're too boring DX
