Angie ~aka Reading Machine~ wrote: "I'm behind on this."Don't feel bad. I stayed up late last night to finish it, but I'm still processing what I read. Not certain where my rating of it will end up.
I finished this tonite. This one for me had a rocky start but picked up the pace around the 30 page mark.
Angie ~aka Reading Machine~ wrote: "I finished this tonite. This one for me had a rocky start but picked up the pace around the 30 page mark."I felt like it was a lot of action, but not a lot of downtime to let the characters actually interact and fall in love. Wasn't as good as I was hoping for.
Ezi let me know that she'd put up the September Buddy Read threads, so I went ahead and asked that they keep the thread open and update it for Born of Silence. I currently only have one other buddy read going, so just let me know when you think you might want to read it!
When are we available to start this?Here's my Month:
Starting 9/1- Group reads for Gods and Kings, The Preacher's Bride, Fatal Affair, and One Night with You (already read, even for a second time today!)
Not determined-
Born of Silence and Halfway to the Grave (waiting on me to read Reckoning)
Discussion for Gods and Kings and The Preacher's Bride will start around the 15th, so I should have them read before then.
Other than that, I'm pretty open! I aim to read a book a day, so I should be able to get to Born of Silence within 24 hours of our starting date.
Angie, I started Born of Silence a couple of hours ago. I'm only 31% into it, and I've done nothing but cry for most of the story! Darling has quickly become my favorite hero of the series, just from what I've read in this book!
I've only read the prologue and four chapters so far. Darling's life is so sad and cruel. I want his uncle and mother dead and gone.

When would we like to read this? I have one group read scheduled for October 1, but the rest of the month is open so far. I do have 2 other BRs on my plate though!
Angie ~aka Reading Machine~ wrote: "What about starting on 5th of October?"Can we push it to the 7th? I've been chatting with one of my other BRs group and we're looking at October 4th for the first book of that BR read.

I agree, it was a good book! I loved that Maris finally got his own Happily Ever After!
Hey, Angie! I noticed that Holli has Born of Fury up on her Dusty Bookshelf, so I sent her a PM and invited her to join us for our buddy read. I wanted to let you know, just in case she joins us.
Buddy reads threads just got posted, so I wanted to check in with you and give this buddy read first dibbs on scheduling. When would you like to read this in November?
Angie ~aka Reading Machine~ wrote: "Yes or the folowing day not picky about the date."Following day would probably be better, would make it line up with a new week for "What's In YOUR Book?", especially if I call characters that week. League books would be excellent character books!
I can't believe you ladies haven't removed me from this, lol. One of these days I'll get back to it...

Still, when you read one, feel free to jump in the thread and chat about it!
Ok, seeing as how I just finished my last "What's in YOUR Book?" Challenge book, I'm going to start this before I go take my nap, so that I can get up and call week 2 closed properly.

I'm just starting Chapter 7, and man, I gotta say Sumi is one callous b*witch!
Angie ~aka Reading Machine~ wrote: "Oh boy that sounds interesting!"It kinda is, and we get to learn a lot more about Andarion culture in this story. It's very long, but things start picking up pace in the 35-40% range. I'm to the point where the book has picked up enough speed that I don't really want to put it down!
Angie! I know you're super busy with other buddy reads, but Gah! Move this up ASAP!!! I just finished this, and it was amazing! Better than Ture and Maris! And the culture! We haven't been given too much of the Andarions up until this point, but we sure do in this book! They remind me of a mix of Vulcans and Klingons, all in one. I can't wait for next month!

"Awesome! How are you liking
? I used to read the Dresden Files, back in my late 20s and early 30s (I'm 36 now, and read romance almost exclusively), and was wondering how this one turned out.
Angie ~aka Reading Machine~ wrote: "Finished this one today. Poor Hauk can't seem to get a break. I can't wait for the next one."No, he really couldn't! December can't come fast enough now! First of the month again?
