I have done her other ones on audio though, so I kinda wish I had gotten the audio. I might go back and see if I can request it in that form as well.

Hello Stranger by Katherine Center is a Read Now for the next 5 days! My request was still pending so I was able to nab it! I guess the only time you can't take advantage of a Read Now promotion is when you've already been denied.

Does anyone else have Wonderland by Jennifer Hillier Wonderland by Jennifer Hillier? It's an older book, but they are releasing an audiobook and I got a widget for it. Anyone want to read it? Release date is April 11th, so I'm looking at the end of March or beginning of April for a start date.

I'm also thinking about accepting Dark Corners (Rachel Krall, #2) by Megan Goldin Dark Corners and The Wishing Game by Meg Shaffer The Wishing Game. Anyone have either of those still to read?

Edit: Dark Corners publishes August 8th and The Wishing Game publishes May 30th.


message 41: by Elyse (new)

Elyse (winesaboutbooks) | 1523 comments I have The Wishing Game, Kristie!


message 42: by Elyse (new)

Elyse (winesaboutbooks) | 1523 comments And Dark Cornes but we already have talked about buddy reading in the future. I can't remember if a thread was made yet.


message 43: by Kristie (new)

Kristie | 2898 comments Mod
Oh good! I'll start a thread for The Wishing Game if you want to buddy. I don't have a date in mind yet. I was thinking end of April, beginning of May, but you also have What the Neighbors Saw in that time period. We could try for mid-April or whichever (end of April, beginning of May) you don't choose for your other read?

Yes, I remember about Dark Corners. but it's not on the schedule. I wasn't sure if people were still interested or had already read it, etc. I'll start a thread for it so we can decide on a start date for that one.

We can do Wishing Game at the end of April since What the Neighbors Saw doesn't publish until mid-June.
