Yes, Alyana, as long as you’re participating in a buddy read discussion within our Reading Challenge Group 2021, you can count it towards the Book Club challenge. You don’t need to be officially signed up for that buddy read.

[Alyana]

Kay wrote: "Can i be added to Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone?"

Hi Kay, you can join our discussion for HP1 here.

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Kay, it looks like you joined for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix next month. You also suggested 2 books for March or April.

You can always look through the spreadsheet and look for your name. And it's also a good idea to make a note of buddy reads you've signed up for in your Member's Corner :)

here is a link to the spreadsheet.

Alyana posted the link for Sorcerer's Stone (thank you!). You can jump into that discussion since it has already been posted

Ruthie, you're removed from Dune.

Updated

[Ilse]

I just realised that Ready Player Two is part two of a series, not part one haha. Could I be removed from that thread? I want to read book one first

Thank you so much! How I have missed you all! Can we post for several suggested Buddy Reads at once, or should those books be listed as individual threads? Thank you!

Shareen, sorry, I didn’t quite understand your question, but I’ll still try answering. You can suggest or second already suggested buddy reads in a single post, no need for posting multiple comments.

Did I get the question right? If not, give me a shout! :)

Irma, please join us for the discussion on Monster Calls. Just jump right in, the thread is now open. Here is the link.

For the buddy read for Attachments and other buddy reads for February, same thing, join us but the thread may be up tomorrow or Monday. :)

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Hi all! We are in the process of posting February's threads, but it is not too late to join or confirm. You still have until the 25th!

We've just been starting early the last few months because Goodreads only allows us to post 3 threads per hour and we want to make sure all of them are up by the 25th :)

If the thread is already posted, you can just jump in. Otherwise, I have added/subtracted all requests through here!

Final Empire is confirmed for February
Secret History is confirmed for March
The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay and The Southern Book Club's Guid to Slaying Vampires both suggested for April
