BookishlyWise | 302 comments Hey sorry if I missed it or cant see in my app - It's my first BR. Are the links for the buddy read discussions created by the mods or we have to create ourselves when we begin reading those?

Sara. [Mares de Páginas] (maresdepaginas) Is it too late to join this December read of A Man Called Ove? I'll read it no matter what but it would be nice to be able to discuss it with more people :)

It hasn't been suggested yet for December, so you can't possibly join it ;) however, I'll put it down as a suggestion from your side and if someone confirms by the 25th (which is our deadline for confirmations), we'll create a thread for you.

Dominique  | 1223 comments Hello everyone,
I want to apologize to all the people I had Buddy reads that I didn't do. With everything that was going on and my work schedule was hectic. My reading has been nonexistent. Working from home hasn't help, working more hours reduced a lot of my free time.
L'm back and will participate in Buddy reads next year and will honor them.
Hope all is well and everyone is healthy.

Rachael (allons-y-bookworm) | 4737 comments Please can you remove me from the buddy reads for The Selection books 3-5: The One (January), The Heir (February) and The Crown (March)? I may still comment in the discussion threads though even if I'm not actually doing them as buddy reads.
I've decided to read them all this month after I've finished the buddy read for book 2.
Thanks :)
