2025 Buddy Reads Sign-up Thread

[Surabhi]

I would love to read Little Women in April.

[Surabhi]

I’m joining IT for June-July! I have been meaning to read it since so long but somehow that never happened.
I hope this time I finish it

It’s on the spreadsheet for May.

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Yes Little Women was confirmed for May. I had put it on April when suggested but moved it when early sign-ups preferred May

Updated

[Beth]

Sarahkat, would you please extend The Warmth of Other Suns into April? Thank you!

SarahKat, I'm also not going to be able to get this from my library for months. If the other folks are willing, maybe we could move this out to June?

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Thieryn, Alina, and juls, are you good with reading Fearless in June instead of April?

Updated

[Surabhi]

Okay. So can you please remove my name from Little Women. I’m not sure if I can join in May.

[Cordelia]

Please sign me up for None of This Is True in April

[Lorraine]

Hello SarahKat,
Some of us are falling behind with our reading, so we’d like to use May as an opportunity to catch up. Could you please move the Cotton Malone series, starting with The Jefferson Key, to June and continue from there?
Thank you!

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

Sorry for the confusion Surabhi!

Updated

[Beth]

SarahKat, I'm struggling a bit finishing A Girl Called Eel. Could you please extend into April? I do want to finish it! Thanks.

Sure! It's moved.

[LinaVer]

SarahKat, could you please extend The Grapes of Wrath to April also? I’ll probably finish it in the first week, and so far no one from the other buddies was active either.

My other three buddy reads for April are correct in that list above.

[Cordelia]

Please sign me up for Incidents Around the House in April. I have just got hold of an audio copy.

[Nethra]

Can I please join Bunny in April.

Thank you for this! I thought I'd get to in the last few days this month, but it's not looking good.

I think it's funny we are reading both Bunny and Rabbits next month 😁

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

April Buddy Reads are posted here!

You may now suggest books through July!

Happy Reading!

[Lorraine]

Merci beaucoup SarahKat!

[M]

Thank you SarahKat!
Not sure if it matters much but in the O Caledonia thread it's just myself and Beth :)

😁 appropriate for the season, at least for the Northern hemisphere.

[Luisa]

Please, can I join Sunrise on the Reaping for April? Thanks :)

hi, sign me up for Wuthering Heights next month!

I´m good - I just realised that this isn´t the Fearless I wanted to read oops.

So sorry - should´ve had a better look into it before signing up. I thought this buddy read was for Fearless by lauren roberts which comes out in early april.

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

I hadn't moved Fearless yet, and posted it, as I was waiting to hear back. I will take it off of April and move it to June, and remove you, Alina.

Lorraine, in moving Fearless to June, do you want to be added back on?

Jaida, you can jump into that discussion at any time now that it's posted here

Not for now. My library still saying many months. If there is some changes, I'll join the group. Thanks SarahKat

Suggesting The City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty for June or July
(just the first book for now :))

I would join you in July for The City of Brass.

can you add this for April Buddy Read ?

Valerie and I will be reading The Invisible Guardian by Dolores Redondo

Thanks"

Sorry Lorraine, I could have sworn ..."

Sorry SarahKat, looks like I never got back to you on this question. Yes, Valerie and I will be reading the entire series but not necessarily one book per month. So I thought it would be easier if I let you know when we are ready to read book 2?

July is great! 😁

[SarahKat, Buddy Reads]

That's fine on the Baztan series Lorraine; you can just let me know when to add them.

Updated

[Dominique]

Hi Sarahkat,
Please remove me from the Kay Scarpetta series. A lot of the remaining books in the series are not available in my library and Libby.

Thanks!

[Jannene]

Beth, Lorraine and I want to read Nothing More Dangerous in June and Saving Emma in July.

[Jannene]

Absolutely
