What books are you planning to read? I have some on my shelf if you want to check and see if any overlap. I've been trying to find some shorter ones that I'm interested in, just so that I can get a few more out of the way for the challenge. :)

[Heather]

Courtney I will check it out! I was planning to start Uglies by Scott Westerfield today but I'm not feeling it.

I've tried to read that. I couldn't ever get into it.

[C.P.]

And I have a shelf marked "thechase" for any that I've specifically thought about reading for the challenge.

[Heather]

I have quite a few that overlap
Eve
The giver
Pulse
Insignia
Icons
The book thief
Will Grayson will Grayson
Paper towns
The perks of being a wallflower
The b-side diaries

[C.P.]

Do you want to read the b-side diaries as a buddy read? I've just finished the perks of being a wallflower, there's a buddy reading going on for that if you want to join that.

The book thief has a buddy read and I'm planning to participate on that. So do will grayson will grayson and paper towns.

I'll have to check. I'm not sure if I have copies of any of the others. I could get them easily though.

[Heather]

Okay I would love to read the b side diaries with you!

[C.P.]

Great! When do you want to start? I'm reading a few things, but I read more than one at a time anyway, so we could start today if you want. I guess we should set up a thread and add it to the buddy reads.

[Heather]

I can start right now :)

Well done everyone! I can't believe that we already have 36 books!

[C.P.]

I'm going to try for James and the Giant Peach! Hopefully I can pick that one up. I'm reading three books now, so hopefully I'll have a few done soon. :)

[Irene]

I feel like I read more books if I read more at once. Idk why, but it feels like it. Anyone else feel the same?

[[deleted user]]

Me too!

[C.P.]

A lot of the time I do. I guess because I can take a break from one and switch to another.

[Heather]

I want to read James and the giant peach

[Victoria]

I'll find you guys are a link for James and the Giant Peach :) It'll only take us a day to read, so we'll get loads of points from this buddy read!

[Victoria]

Here's the thread for James and the Giant Peach: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

When exactly do you want to do the read a thon? Just this weekend in general, or do we want specific times? Because I'm in an earlier timezone to the rest of you, so I'll be starting and finishing earlier :)
