Patrick Ness's newest book IS OUT! I know there's a Chaos walking cult in here somewhere, so if you'd like to join in the fun of reading More Than This
, I've made a thread here.
Okay, I just realized that
releases Oct 8th!!! That came fast! I have yet to read
. I'd kind of like to reread the first 2 as well, because its been a LONG time since I've read them! Anyone up for joining me in any of these? There isn't a huge rush or anything, but I would like to get to House of Hades by the middle of November.
Also,
comes out Oct 22nd!!! I assume there are people who would love to buddy read that?
Karen and Jen and anyone else,
come out Oct 29th!!!!

Ack! I'm with you on PJ, it's been a long time since I read any of them and I'm a few books behind I think :(

I would love to buddy read Allegiant! Although I probably receive my copy a bit late, because I pre-ordered it on The Bookdepository and it usually takes them 10 days to ship a book to me.
David wrote: "We can wait for you Lola!"Thanks, that would be awesome! I am really looking forward to Allegiant and as I don't have time to re-read the first 2 books I probably need some people to remind me what happened in the earlier books.
I'm looking forward to Allegiant as well. I ordered the box set via amazon and they are pretty good about shipping. I might get the first two from the library to reread though because it's been too long since I've read either of them.
David wrote: "We can wait for you Lola!"
Yup, I might have to wait a little for my copy too! No worries, there!

I'm in for Allegiant and Hord! My plan is to reread the Divergent series in time for her new book so it flows right in. And we read The Razorlands in a recent buddy read Yay! ahem....side note: seriously addicted to The Knife Of Never Letting Go!

I have yet to read Throne of Glass, but I may be able to do that before the buddy read of Crown of Midnight. I'll see how far I get without the things I'm doing currently. Gotta steel myself up for Monsters this weekend. Good thing I went vegetarian a few months ago!

Awesome awesome awesome! Aww Manchee, love him too!
OK now I'm on the part where Manchee and Tom hitched a ride for a bit with Wilf and his wife and had to get off because she said where Tom is from. OK, I need to make a 'I know everyone read this amazing book, but I haven't and need to say all that I need to say as I read it' buddy read lol
I know the feeling, Cindee! There are times where you just have to tell SOMEONE! That's why I love buddy reads!
I know Karen, I wish I was reading this book with someone, I haven't read a book this good in a long time. one that captures you and you wish you had someone to talk about it with.

right now, but should be finished by the end of the weekend. I can start Sunday - I have a 2.5 hour drive so that would give me a good start

How is the 13th
It's a date then. We start Friday - and I may be in and out next week. My laptop cursor decided to spazz out on some crazy acid trip and had to be rushed to the Genius Bar at the Apple store. Talk about a zoo! Apparently there is only one Apple store in Indiana that isn't in the Chicago area - anyway, the laptop is out of commission for 5-7 days. The Bug is letting me use hers, but I won't have it for most of next week. Hopefully I can use my mom's iPad and contribute from there. So if I'm off the grid for a couple of days, you'll know why -- Although there's always my iPhone too - which had to be replaced today . . . when it rains it pours!
Wait, what's Friday?
Sorry about your laptop and iPhone, Jen.
I've had one of those technology challenged weeks as well. IT was here all morning on Tuesday and I was on phone w support for a couple hours yesterday. Still waiting for all of them to get back to me.

Oh sorry to both of you, believe me, being the cursed one with tech, I understand!
WOOT, can't wait, I've been wanting to read this one for so long!

Great book! I loved Days even more than Daughter, and the ending made me want to cry (I'm not telling you if those were happy or sad tears, so I'm not spoiling anything!)
Jen, yeah, the apple store is in the keystone mall on the north side of indianapolis. If you need help with directions let me know, I live here :) and it was practically in my backyard before I moved in August lol. You can message me if you need help!

Now I'm in the center of the "Amish Triangle" formed by Shelbyville, Greensburg, and Rushville. My best friends live in Indy so it's nice to be home again (I just got back from NC a week ago). I love the Fashion Mall - so much great stuff and who doesn't love a Cheesecake Factory? : )
