The Reading List

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

This thread is to discuss The Reading List by Sara Nisha Adams.

Pages: 384 pages


Length: 1 Month (February)


Participants: Desiré, Emma, Lorraine, Shari, Kay, Karianne .


Everyone reads at their own pace during a Buddy Read. Because participants can be at different parts of the book at different times, it is extremely important to mark spoilers so that the book is not ruined for someone who is not as far along as others!!!

Mark spoilers by placing {spoiler} before the text and {/spoiler} after the text but use the < and > instead of the { and }.

I started this book on Thursday and I am hooked. I love book about books. I find the characters well developed and likable. It is easy to get attach to them. And I find myself entering new books on my TBR list. Fortunately, there are some books on the reading list I already have read. 😊

[Shari]

I will most likely finish reading this tonight. I almost stopped reading it at the beginning, but read the reviews again and they made me continue and I'm glad I did. I'm really liking this book.

[Desiré]

Loved this book and finished it last night, I’m embarrassed to say I haven’t read any of the books on “the reading list”. I’ve owned To Kill a Mockingbird for awhile now and am going to read it next, and have added all the rest to my TBR! Will write my thoughts later this week once I get a bit more time.

[Shari]

Wow! This book surprised me - I don't know how to do a "spoiler" alert, so I won't say what surprised me. But if you've finished reading I'm sure you know. However; it did not surprise me to find out who wrote the list of books to read. Glad to have read this book with you all.

[Lorraine]

I also finished the book and just loved it. Like Shari it took me 2 times to get into the story but at my second attempt I was hooked. This book made me laugh and cry. What more can be asked from a book. I feel like reading all the books on the reading list, even the ones I already read.

I didn't read To Kill a Mockingbird till my daughter had to study it in school .

Yes (view spoiler)[ I was so surprised when Aiden ended up committing suicide. At the same time, some books have to much of a happy ending so I like that this story was more what could happen in real life. I also loved how the list helped so many people in different ways and reminded me of why I fell in love with reading in the first place (hide spoiler)] Also, I just finished To Kill a Mockingbird and loved it as well. Oddly enough it related to some things in my life currently, just as it did with the characters in The Reading List.
