2023 Buddy Read Sign Up Thread

[Dikshita]

Does anyone want to read the Folk of the Air series in May or June? I have been wanting to read that series since ages.

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Those are added!

Joy, if that group is planning on doing all of the Women's Murder Club I can just add it as confirmed and it will automatically be added every month. Let me know

We just finished The Cruel Prince in March as a buddy read.

It was a good read. I am not sure when we plan on reading book two as its not planned yet.

[Rachael]

If the Folk of the Air buddy read goes ahead, I'd be happy to join you :)

[Bryan]

Suggesting a Buddy Read for Mistborn Era 1 books from Brandon Sanderson.

May - #1 - The Final Empire

June - #2 - The Well of Ascension

July - #3 - Hero of Ages

Would also gladly continue the series into Era 2 in following months if there was interest.

[Dikshita]

Can we have the folk of air series buddy read again in May or June?

[Dikshita]

I am okay with June as well. 😀

[Surabhi]

Please add me to Wuthering Heights in June :)

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

For Folk of the Air: It is The Cruel Prince in June correct? with Dikshita and Dominique

Then shall I confirmed the second book for July adding Rachael and Jannene?

Misborn is confirmed

Updated

[Jannene]

I'm not planning to reread The Cruel Prince as I just read it last month. I would be open to reading [book:The Wicked King|26032887 in July.

Ok that's why I'm confirming. So, so far no one confirmed Cruel Prince in June but there is interest for Wicked King in July

Great!

[Faith N.]

Any interest in reading one or more works by Rumer Godden. I am open to any of her work, and particularly interested in The Greengage Summer, China Court: The Hours of a Country House, A Fugue in Time

[Caterina]

This might be a little late, but would it be possible to continue with the second book in the Six of Crows series in May? The second book is Crooked Kingdom.

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Faith, please pick a month you'd like to read any of those books, and narrow it down to the number you want to read that month.
For example "For June, I'm suggesting A Fugue in Time, for July, Greengage Summer" etc.

Caterina, I can add that to May's threads. Is the whole group planning on continuing?

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

May Buddy Read Threads are Here!

Caterina, I added Crooked Kingdom. If your fellow readers don't get to it in time, it can be made into a 2-month read and moved to the June folder at the end of next month.

Thanks SarahKat. I am not sure who is planning to continue reading. I saw a question about it yesterday and decided to ask you to add it before it was too late.

[Emily]

Can you add me to Wanderers for May?

[Caterina]

SarahKat- Would it still be possible to update Crooked Kingdom to be a 2-month read? Thank you so much!

[Stacy]

Please add me to the Wuthering Heights in June!
