Anxious people already has a buddy read this month. Look up the topic in buddy reads

Trisha (trishabisen) | 2389 comments Surabhi & Nicole, we already have a thread for Anxious People in the November Buddy Reads folder which will remain there until December 25th. You can join the discussion there itself. If you’re unable to finish the book by that time, let the Mods know here and one of us will extend the topic for another month. Okay? The Goldfinch is confirmed for January.

Thanks Chantal for pointing that out!
