Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch confirmed for April.Ilse, I've added The Final Empire to the suggestions for January. However, readers only have 2 days to confirm it.
I've also added you to the other requests, including Harry Potter which was already confirmed for January

That's great! I'm looking forward to reading it with you!
Hi. It's not to late to join The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle in January, is it? I love Murakami and I think I haven't read that one yet.Also, I'd be interested in The Three-Body Problem, if that's still up for discussion.

For The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle is too late, you have to join by 25th of previous month in this case Dec, but you are welcome to just jump in discussion
Hi Wolf, like Sinisa said, you can just jump into the discussion for Wind-Up Bird, since it's already posted here.I didn't see Three-Body Problem on the spreadsheet. It's possible this was suggested without a month and so never got added.

I am reading the book below in February.Would anyone care to join me?

Hello!Lynn and I had previously received confirmation about extending our two-month Buddy Read (Nov/Dec) of The Wall of Storms into January.
However, it doesn't appear in the 2021 spreadsheet which might explain why our thread hasn't been moved to the Jan 2021 Buddy Reads folder.
When you have a moment, would you please move it for us?Thank you! 😊
Would anyone be interested in reading All Systems Red with me in February?**I'm open to other months though January would be cutting it a little too close.
Would anyone like to read The Midnight Watch: A Novel of the Titanic and the Californian with me in April?I'm open to other months, but April seemed like a good one considering that's when the story takes place (being Titanic-related and all). :D

I'd love to read this book with you. February is fine.

I’ll read that with you in April. My birthday is April 14th so I’ve always had an interest in anything Titanic related.

Hi, newbie here. I'm not sure I grasp the concept of a Buddy Read yet, but I'd like to give it a go. I understand I'm too late to officially join The Wind Up Bird Chronicle for January, but hope to read along and join the discussion anyway. And I'd like to sign up for the following going forwards:Feb: A Monster Calls
Mar: Maskerade
Apr: All The Light We Cannot See
May: The Kite Runner
Thanks!

Same! Sounds like a good read!
All added up to here!Nedge and Manni, welcome to buddy reads! Both of your posts are great thank you!
Nedge, regarding the Wind-up Bird Chronicle read, there isn't really a "too late" if a book has already been confirmed and the thread is posted. You can always jump in to any active discussion thread!
The only time it's "too late" is if you wanted to join a book that had been suggested but not yet confirmed, and it was past the cut-off date (the 25th of each month prior to the read). I hope that makes sense!
