[Eirelyn]

Thanks, SarahKat. :D

[Kristy]

I'd like to join The Long Call for May

[Thieryn]

Can I be added to the following May reads please?
I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
Good Omens
Where the Wild Ladies Are
If It Bleeds

Also please add me to Pride and Prejudice for June.

And a clarification, do I need to find buddy-readers for the 3 books that I recommended? Or is it just whomever sees and joins? As in, is there something expected of me? (you can tell I'm new here :P)
for May
+ for June

[Valerie]

I would like to withdraw my suggestion of Apeirogon for June please.

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Everything added/subtracted/confirmed!

Saha, I added you to Pride and Prejudice, but it's in July not June. Is that ok?

Also, no you don't need to do anything more with your suggestions. It's just if people see them and want to join you!

I will join Saha for I, Robot in June

[D.L.]

Suggesting Clown in a Cornfield by Adam Cesare for June though I'm open to other months. It's a horror novel that sounds really exciting.

No problem for July at all, apologies for the mistaken date!

And thanks for the clarification (and thanks Sinisa for joining me for I, Robot!)

Brilliant, I am looking forward to it, it is my first buddy read from this group so I'm not 100% sure how to do it but I am sure I can manage to figure it out over this month and be ready for May.

[Valerie]

A separate thread for the book will appear around 25th of April. You start the book when you want and post your thoughts on that thread (hiding spoilers).
You’ll easily get the hang of it.

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

You are added Alicja!

Valerie thank you for answering those questions!

Hey! I wanted to join the Welcome to Night Vale buddy read, but something came up in my personal life and had to change accounts! So I'd like to return to second it now that that's been sorted out. I'm extremely sorry for the trouble.
