I would like to join ‘It’ by Stephen King in January.
This would be my first horror novel.
God help me! I hope I am able to overcome my fear.

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Good luck overcoming your fear Surabhi!

Some of us are going to be reading The World of Ice & Fire: The Untold History of Westeros and the Game of Thrones in January if anyone else would like to join!

[Surabhi]

Thanks Sarah! I really need it 😉

I plan to start Les Misérables on audio in January, hoping to read it a little at a time over 2-3 months, should anyone care to join me. Not open to other months since it's for a Q1 challenge.

I'd like to join in, but I'm positive that, given the length and my other commitments, it'll be a three month read for me.

Are we too late to sign up for January buddy reads?

I would like to read down the woods by A.J. Arlidge in January and continue the series in the months after. I'm pretty sure Dominique and Jannene would like to join me. We've read the two earlier books in the series last and this month :)

If one of them can confirm by the end of tomorrow that would be good. Then I'll add it and the rest of the series as confirmed.
