Shawnie and I will be doing another series read along for anyone wanting to join in. We are going to start in June and read one book a month I think like last time, maybe one bi monthly if they are chonkers. The choices are between

1.The Black Coast

2.Wool Omnibus

3.Of Blood and Fire

4.The Darkest Winter

If anyone is interested make your selection below. The highest one wins or Shawnie picks if it is a draw, or no one wants to join us.
Hope to read with you soon.

Wool has been on my TBR for a while.

Looks like Wool has the interest. I have the Omnibus in paperback and am looking forward to a fun buddy read! I plan to start it the first or second week of June. :)

Vinca Russell (vinxlady) | 1562 comments I'll try to join in with this too, think I have a copy of Wool somewhere that I've not read yet.

We all read the books in the months mentioned above and chat about it in a spoiler thread. A few of us did the winnowing flame trilogy over three months and it was nice chatting through it. Come join us if you are interested in the series.

Chad Brown | 17 comments I'll give the Wool Omnibus a try; how do you prevent talking before everyone is done with the series? Or do you wait until the end of the month?

We're flexible on that. You can hide with the spoilers tag, or at the beginning of your comment type *SPOILERS*, or comment as you read and add at the top of your comment "up to Ch 4". We're open to suggestions as well.

I don't mind spoilers but I know it's a real no-no for some. I think in this group we're pretty flexible with it and try to make it work.

I changed my reading order and will start Wool tomorrow. I plan to bring this giant paperback camping with me. :D I read in my tent with a headlamp.

Have fun camping Shawnie! I loved caming as a kid, and still do when I get the chance to do it.

Thanks, Greg! We're going out the the Idyllwild area and should have some sunshine. :)

Have a great time!


message 16: by Jenna (new)

Jenna | 11 comments this is great, I'll definitely be joining in for the next one! one of my reading goals is to finish a series (if I'm enjoying it) before starting another and I just finished the Witcher series so it's perfect timing!


message 17: by Austin (new)

Austin | 11 comments I’ll be joining this as well! Thank you for messaging everyone as I am new to Goodreads and would have never known this was thing. Awesome!

Hi Jenna and Austin glad you are both joining. Can’t wait to see where the series goes. I read the first one years ago but can’t remember too much about it.

Artie (artabra) | 4 comments I've been thinking about reading this book series, so I think I'll join. I have only watched some random scenes from the show, but it looks interesting, :D

Btw, I don't know if it applies to every country, but the kindle edition with all the books is at the same price as the first book.

The Wool Trilogy (Silo, #1-3) by Hugh Howey
