For anyone interested in joining the Darling Girls Darling Girls by Sally Hepworth buddy read, if you don't have the book, it is currently read now for 48 hours.

Katrisa | 202 comments I had that book but messed up and didn't realize I had gotten it for a buddy read and I read it. Oops! It was really good though!

Haha, at least it was good!

I stopped reading Lucinda Berry after Finding Noah just didn't do it for me. But I do have the engagement party!

Vicki Willis | 871 comments Do you want to read The Engagement Party with me starting Oct. 21?

Hi everyone - Just a reminder that we planned to read The Heiress in November. We haven't picked a start date yet and are starting to discuss a date, so if you're still planning to read it with us head on over to the discussion thread and let us know what works for you. :)

I've also started a discussion for The Women. We originally said we wanted to read it in December. Head on over to the thread and let us know if that still works for you. I figure with all the holidays coming up, we should probably figure it out earlier.

Elyse (winesaboutbooks) | 1524 comments Was just denied that!


message 370: by Trisha (new)

Trisha | 1573 comments oh no!!! Darn! They may have met their limit for arcs. . .


Shruti morethanmylupus (morethanmylupus) | 1111 comments Anyone have Only If You're Lucky by Stacy Willingham ? Appears to be read now currently. January publication date.

Yes, we're planning on reading it sometime in Dec but we don't have a date! https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... Good to know it's a Read Now!


message 373: by Tasha (new)

Tasha I was declined too


message 374: by Kristie (new)

Kristie | 2898 comments Mod
It's not read now for me because I was already declined. 😔


message 375: by Elyse (new)

Elyse (winesaboutbooks) | 1524 comments I hate that they do that! It's so dumb! Anyone should be allowed the Read Now, even if previously denied.


Shruti morethanmylupus (morethanmylupus) | 1111 comments Oh no! That makes no sense if it’s open to everyone why restrict it like that? Ugh.

I have it. I am looking forward.

Kristie | 2898 comments Mod
I agree. So frustrating. It's like they are saying ANYONE can read this... EXCEPT YOU! Ouch. lol


message 379: by Vicki Willis (new)

Vicki Willis | 871 comments I feel like they should fix that with an update. It has to be something with the algorithm. I mean, why wouldn't they want the people who actually tried to get it to have first crack at it. ??
Makes no sense.


message 380: by Kristie (new)

Kristie | 2898 comments Mod
They really should. If you haven't been declined yet and it's still pending you can get it. People used to complain about that and they fixed it, but not if you've been declined. They want you to contact the publisher and request a widget for books that are read now after you've already been declined.

Me too! I've really been trying to be more of a mood reader this last part of 2023. :)

I have The Clinic
I could read in January, but am traveling from Jan 6- 15 and am not sure if I will have internet. So could do Jan. 16 for a start date if that isn't too close to publishing for you.

I've been really wanting to do more mood reading too.

I'm mostly trying to wrap up some challenges in December and I'd like to read something holiday related too. I probably won't read much at all the last week of the year of - Christmas through the new year - as my daughters and grandson will be visiting.

I thought we had a buddy read for No One Can Know by Kate Alice Marshall No One Can Know, but we don't. I'm not planning to read it until early January, but if anyone has it I'd be happy to buddy read. I just got it.

Is it a read now ? Or had you requested it?


message 394: by Elyse (new)

Elyse (winesaboutbooks) | 1524 comments I requested the ebook and audio of No One Can Know. Haven't heard back yet.


message 395: by Kristie (new)

Kristie | 2898 comments Mod
I requested the audio because I can't do another January ebook. They got back to me quickly.


message 396: by Katrisa (new)

Katrisa | 202 comments I requested the audio. *fingers crossed*
