Elise | 410 comments @Luffy thanks, i appreciate the concern. I know it is a long, complicated read, but I think I’ll be capable. I enjoy a challenge! 😊

Okay well, I wouldn't be shocked if you gave the book a perfect 5 stars. See you around.

I could fit it in possibly next month! I'm in the midst of finishing up two series, but can make time to read at least an hour a week!

@Alison and @Angieleigh--

Great! I've got some other books going on too, but I read pretty quickly, so I can fit it in as y'all are able. When do you guys want to start? And should we plan to read a chapter a day or another such plan?

Danny Mac (dannymacauthor) | 47 comments I have a new book coming out this summer and will set the date very soon. Recently received the final changes from my editor and will format the book for KDP. At that time, I will send advance reader copies for select readers. If you want to read this new fantasy novel before publishing it, please message me.

Oh my goodness, so sorry I just saw this!

Basically, if you want to read any book with someone, just ask here. If someone volunteers with you, great! If so, I'll create a thread for you in a separate folder, and you can discuss the book as you read. You can also set a goal for each day (Ex: three chapters per day-- then you discuss it)

Hope that helps!

So Z.C. Is joining the war and peace buddy read, everyone! Anyone else wanna join?

Date: TBD


message 65: by Angieleigh (new)

Angieleigh Would anyone be interested in doing a buddy read for A Crown of Chains? It's fantasy retelling of the story of Queen Esther, which is one of my favorite books in the Bible.

I have been planning on reading that, so that's a yes from me! I recently started following this author on IG. Whenever you want to start it, let me know. I will be reading July's BotM, too, but I am a fast reader, so I can fit it in.

Anyone else want to join??

If I wasn’t about to start reading War & Peace with a few people from here, I’d love to. I just bought a copy (like new, too!) for $3.49!

I would but I literally just finished it.😔 If you don't find anyone to read it with you, I'd be glad to discuss it with you as you read. You may have to jog my memoryon the details, though. 😉

If you would still like to have a buddy read, I would love to read it with you! That’s one of my favorite books. :)

ChildOfGod💜🙌🏽 (for God I live and for God I die) ~ in my Christian pop era | 132 comments Hey! I have some books that I wouldn’t mind buddy reading in the future that will be coming out later this year. If anyone is interested in these lmk. I’ll prob have to let u know in a few months whether I can still do the buddy read since they’ll be published in a few months tho…

The Looking Glass Illusion by Sara Ella

Enchanted Hill by Emily Bain Murphy

Return of the Vengeful Queen by C.J. Redwine


message 77: by J. P. (new)

J. P. {School Hiatus} (the-reluctant-feanorian) | 194 comments These are some classics I have been wanting to read, and I thought I’d ask to see if anyone would be interested in doing a buddy read of one (or more!) of them. A couple of preliminaries: I will probably not be able to start reading until around November due to my school schedule, and I must warn you that I’m not the fastest of readers. :)

The list:
1. Middlemarch
2. Paradise Lost
3. Confessions
4. The Age of Innocence
5. Wuthering Heights
6. Emma or Mansfield Park

These are mostly rather long and/or dense books, so I understand if they don’t sound especially appealing. ;) If you have any other books in mind, just let me know, and thanks for considering this! :)

I'd love to buddy read one of Jane Austen's books with you, especially Mansfield Park :)

This may be a bit of a delayed response but I've been wanting to read Paradise Lost sometime. Also potentially Confessions or some of the others. Unfortunately, I am in-progress on way too many books, so it may need to be in at least a few months, but definitely interested :)


message 85: by Clare (new)

Clare | 778 comments Does anyone want to do a buddy read of a book? I don't really care what we do all that much, though I've been seeing people talking about Anne of Green Gables, so we could do that.

Elisabeth (Bets) (livingforjesus) | 6899 comments Mod
Have you read that book before? It would be a major reread for me (I don't know how many times I've read it) but I would be willing to buddy read it with you if you don't mind that it's a reread for me.

Another one or two I'm wanting to reread is The Secret Garden or Emily of New Moon so if either of those interest you I'd do them.


message 87: by ✧Bella✧ (new)

✧Bella✧  | 6753 comments I would be interested in doing a buddy read of The Secret Garden.

Also, would anyone be interested in doing a buddy read of Romanov by Nadine Brandes?


message 88: by Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒ (new)

Elisabeth (Bets) (livingforjesus) | 6899 comments Mod
Clare would you wanna do The Secret Garden? We could all three buddy read it than. If you wanna do Anne of Green Gables instead tho that's fine, I'll do that one with you.


message 89: by Clare (new)

Clare | 778 comments No secret Garden is perfectly fine, I've read it once, but it's been a while, so it would be a good option.


message 90: by ✧Bella✧ (new)

✧Bella✧  | 6753 comments Great. I've never read it before, so this will be my first time reading it. :)


message 91: by Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒ (new)

Elisabeth (Bets) (livingforjesus) | 6899 comments Mod
Ok sounds good. When do y'all wanna start? I'm trying to finish a stack of books this month so I would prefer to wait until next month to start but if you'd rather start now that's fine


message 92: by ✧Bella✧ (new)

✧Bella✧  | 6753 comments Waiting is good with me. I'll have to get a library copy, anyway.


message 93: by Clare (new)

Clare | 778 comments I can wait. I'm trying to finish Way of Kings right now anyway.


message 94: by Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒ (new)

Elisabeth (Bets) (livingforjesus) | 6899 comments Mod
Ok. Sounds good. If you wanna request a chat on the other thread that's fine


message 95: by Clare (new)

Clare | 778 comments Is there any difference?


message 96: by Elisabeth (Bets), ⭒assistant mod⭒ (new)

Elisabeth (Bets) (livingforjesus) | 6899 comments Mod
With the different threads? Taz made the other one for people to ask for a chat on. Instead of just what we did on here


message 97: by Clare (new)

Clare | 778 comments Oh, I thought you were talking about the entire different discussion. My bad, sorry.

I STINKING LOVE EMILY OF NEW MOON!!! I would do a buddy read for that. I want to read The Secret Garden as well. I love Anne of Green Gables...I've only read the first three books, but love re-reading!

I think the plan is for us to do The Secret Garden, so I'm sure you can join. Maybe we can do the others another time. I love both Anne of Green Gables and Emily of New Moon.
