If the Ace of Spades you mean is the one by Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé I'd love to join :)

Also for the future there is actually a special thread to ask for buddy reads already! It's the first thread under this discussion

Since you made this thread anyway we can just use this one!

I haven't seen how many pages there are per chapter yet but I'm okay with any amount as long as it's under 50 pages a day. Up to you!

Hello everyone! We already have a thread for buddy reading requests, please use it: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

You can create a thread in this folder if you decide upon a buddy read.

TBR means To Be Read (like a list of books you want to read).

If you want to join our buddy-read of Ace of Spades you can, but if you want to buddy-read a different book you can look/suggest on the Requests thread :)


message 12: by Sophia (new)

Sophia | 31 comments i don‘t know how to link anyones message on this app 😅but yes you r all very welcome
under / around 50 pages a day sounds great 😊 (depending on chapters )
Probably start on Sunday ??
And say how much to read spontaniously ? Also no pressure!!
And i am sorry for my late reply 😬

No problem! Well if you don't join this one that's fine, you can always suggest other books you're interested in on the buddy-read requests thread at any time and maybe you'll find someone to read with you there :)

Sunday sounds good. We'll see what Christene thinks of daily page numbers and then decide!

message 18: by [deleted user] (new)

Maybe we could start with the first five chapters for tomorrow and then if Christene wants to adjust it we can?

message 25: by Sophia (new)

Sophia | 31 comments Is there any other option how i can come to that side ??


message 26: by Sophia (new)

Sophia | 31 comments Is it in the thread "Buddy Read Request ('23) ??

If you're looking for where to request new buddy-reads, that's the right thread.

For some reason I can't create a new thread for this buddy-read (it keeps giving me an error message). Can someone else give it a try?

I just woke up so I haven't read yet, but I'll post my thoughts once we get a thread going.

Slr. Sure thing first five chapter it is


message 30: by Sophia (new)

Sophia | 31 comments I am really sorry but i don't know how to create a thread and where to create it :(
If a thread is what i think it is i can only create one in the "folder" Buddy Reads and i can't create one in the folder Buddy Read Request ('23) :((

Genie, I've read the book and it's probably not for you.
