Hi, Trisha!

Iton and I would like to continue the Alex Cross series beyond January 2022!
February: The Big Bad Wolf (Alex Cross #9)
March: London Bridges (Alex Cross #10)
April: Mary, Mary (Alex Cross #11)
May: Cross (Alex Cross #12)

I believe you didn't want any more beyond May 2022, so we'll post whenever you're ready for June-December! This series currently has 29 installments, so it will take us awhile to complete it!

Thank you!

I'm sorry to make more work for you, SarahKat, but I'd like to change my Jade Wars suggestion as follows:

Title: Jade War by Fonda Lee
(Book 2 of the Green Bone Saga)
Genre: Wuxia fantasy
Month: Preferably March, but a later month works, too February.

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Everything added through here!

Lynn, thank you for the reminder! I will try to just add the future ones as we unlock the months. Not sure why I had neglected to do that for these! Spreadsheet is "active" through April so I will add May's in a few weeks.

Ooh I'll read this with you! At least book one for sure. Let's try April for Take the Reins

[Dikshita]

Hey everyone! I would want to suggest ‘The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood’ for February in the spirit of Valentines Day. Would be great if others are also interested

[D.L.]

Can you remove me from the White Oleander discussion in February? I am 'booked' solid next month & won't have time for it after all. Sorry, thank you.

[Rebecca]

D.L. wrote: "I am bummed Fangirl didn't win for Book of the Month. Would anyone like to discuss it in April?"

I want to! It's on my short stack by my bed, so I was hoping it was going to be next month's book too.

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Fangirl is confirmed for April. Everything else updated

Updated

[Dikshita]

Anyone wants to read House of Earth and Blood in April?

I really want to read it as the sequel is coming out soon.

But due to the immense size of the book I would really love someone to read along.

Dikshita, I was planning on reading it this year. April is good for me.

[Alaina]

Anyone interested in reading “Little Women” by Louisa May Alcott for the month of April? I’m also open to other months if preferred.

[Eirelyn]

Anyone up for reading The Outsider by Stephen King in March (or April)? :D

[Lorraine]

Valerie wrote: "I would like to suggest Bewildement by Richard Powers for March (open to other months)."

I will join Valerie for this book. I am ok with March and open to April.

[Joan]

Can I be added to Fangirl in April? I've had this one for awhile and have been meaning to read it.

[Joan]

Eirelyn wrote: "Anyone up for reading The Outsider by Stephen King in March (or April)? :D"

I've been wanting to read more Stephen King. I'll read this one and I don't have a preference which month. March currently I don't have a buddy read for so if others want to join and March works that is good for me but I can do either.

[Chantal]

Does anybody want to join me with Into the Wild in Februari?

[Desiré]

I’d like to join for The Outsider in March! Can I also be removed from The Woman in the Window in March.
