Jannene has dropped out of the Alex Cross series and I've not heard from Iton in forever, even though I did ask if she was continuing. My guess is that she is not.

Iton replied that she was simply busy with school (Much more important than Buddy Reads, IMO! :)) and is now caught up, so we are both reading the January book and planning to continue with the Alex Cross series after all!! :)

[JenniferJ]

I would like to join Love on the Brain in February and The It Girl in April please and ty.

Still waiting for Rachel's response on this one. TerryJane, would you instead like to make a fresh suggestion for March? Once Rachel/anyone else responds in the affirmative, we'll have this confirmed on the spreadsheet.

It could be for June or for two months over May and June since it's a long book. I'm pretty flexible.

[L Y N N]

Please add me to Kaikeyi in May! Thank you!
