message 62: by L Y N N (new)

L Y N N (book_music_lvr) | 2389 comments I would like to join the following buddy reads:
January 2023:
1) Uncle Tom's Cabin since I just got a copy of this and haven't read it since I initially read it at age 13, some 53 years ago! :)
2) Northanger Abbey
March 2023:
1) Infinite Jest since your posting prompted me to Wikipedia and reading about Wallace, now I am enthralled with the idea of finally reading this one! However, given that it is over 1,000 pages, I would like to suggest 2 months, March-April, please! :)
2) Emma

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! ;
