Hi Sarah - sorry for the super late reply, I do not want to suggest The Priory of the Orange Tree- I will just read it alone if I get the chance.

Also, I would really like to join Mistborn #5 (Shadow of Self) in September. I would also like to join Dracula in October.

I would like to suggest Atonement for September, if anyone would like to read it together with me.

There are a few books I have lined up for challenges that I *must* read by year's end. I would really love to have buddies for them. So, I want to suggest:

* The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux (Suggesting for October, open to other months)

* The Broken Girls by Simone St. James (Suggesting for October, open to other months)

* Legends & Lattes by Travis Baldree (Suggesting for September, open to other months)

[M]

I'm down for Phantom in October..

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

I will join for The Broken Girls!

I'll join for this one, too. The possibility of a haunting sounds perfect for October, but I'm open to other months, too.

That's added! Do you want me to confirm the entire series so it's automatically added every month?

Announcement!

September Buddy Reads are posted here!

You may now suggest buddy reads through the end of this year!

I will be canceling the rest of the Alex Cross and Mistborn buddy reads unless a second person becomes active again, so if you are signed up for those please let us know if you plan to continue!


Also, just want to let you all know I will not be online tomorrow, but if any September books happen to get confirmed I will of course honor the 25th deadline and post them when I get back on Saturday :)

[Valerie]

I would like to suggest Frankenstein: The 1818 Text for November and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde for December please

[Beth]

I am planning to read Mr. Timothy in December. Anyone want to read with me?

[D.L.]

Suggesting for December: A Season of Angels by Debbie Macomber

[Shelley]

Is it too late to make suggestions for October? If not, I like to read something "creepy"-ish in October. This year, I am planning to read The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires. Anyone want to join me?

[Michelle]

Since I have a huge to-read list and am a bit behind on my reading challenge of this year, I'd like to suggest to following books as buddy reads:

October or November (open to both months):
- A Day of Fallen Night by Samantha Shannon - Could be a two-month read, since it's a very long book
- The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon
- The Pearl Sister by Lucinda Riley - #4 in the seven sisters series
- The Golden Enclaves by Naomi Novik - #3 of the series deadly education
- Before Your Memory Fades by Toshikazu Kawaguchi - #3 of the before the coffee gets cold series
- The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab
- Blood of Dragons by Robin Hobb - #4 of the rain wild chronicles series, #13 of realm of the elderlings series
- Hide and Seek by M.J. Arlidge - #6 in the Helen Grace Series, but all books can also be read separate in my opinion

I probably won't be able to read all these books in these months, but I will prioritize any book that is in a buddy read obviously.
