I’m up for that idea, Latasha. (Let me know if you’d like some suggestions.)

I am starting a buddy read for "Twice Bitten, Twice Die" by Antony J. Stanton. It is due for publication sometime in October, so the buddyread would not start until maybe Halloween, let's say... A great way to celebrate Halloween. The book is part three in the horror series so if you are interested in joining this buddy read, then you have about a month to get up to speed with parts one ("Once Bitten, Twice Die") and two ("Once Bitten, Twice Live"). This is one of the best serieses I have read in a LONG time, and it'd be fab to share it with some like minded horror enthusiasts...JJ
We've started # 12 of The Stephen King Challenge - The Running Man. If anyone would like to join us, I've set up a thread.
I'm going to read Sineater and The Orchard this month (October) if anyone is interested in joining me for either one. i'm flexible on start dates but I plan on including them for my october reading challenges so i don't want to wait TOO long to start them :)

LOL! I hear you there! I usually have one on kindle, and at least two other books going at once. Which are you planning on first?

After watching penny dreadful- no spoilers! I'm not done yet! And rewatching the Boris Karloff one, I've got a hankering to reread Frankenstein. Any takers? I was thinking in November.
Kimberly, do you still wanna start the orchard? If so I'll set up the thread and I'll start the book by the weekend. I'll be done with my current books by then. I fell a little behind! :)

I probably could by the weekend. My youngest was in ICU the past week and a half, but should be good before then.... Have a couple to catch up on yet, so the weekend would be the soonest for me. :)

Take all the time you need -- I'm in no rush! I'll wait for the weekend at least, too.
Hey all!I'm getting ready to read an ARC of Black January to review for Douglas Wynne.
Yesterday, I noticed that he is giving away a few more ARCS, so I wanted to know if anyone wanted to read it with me?
Here's a link to his post: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
If you want to read it with me, please post here and I'll create a thread for us. (AND post on Douglas' thread so he can send you the ARC.)
As far as I know this book is set in the same world as Red Equinox, so it is helpful to have read Red Equinox first, but not absolutely necessary.
I'm going to start The Church of Dead Girls soon, if anyone is interested :D I also am still interested in reading the Orchard but since I own that book I'm in no rush to get started. I have so many library books checked out, I need to read faster lol.
the thread is up for the Stephen king challenge, #13- different seasons. https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
OK, I'm going to commit to The Orchard and The Hatching for next month. Does anyone want to read those 2 with me? (Kimberly? ;) )I'm thinking The Orchard during the first half of the month and The Hatching during the 2nd half, but I'm flexible and can start whenever. I own The Orchard and I have the Hatching checked out of the library.

I'm actually interested in reading the Dark Tower series especially with the movie coming out soon-ish. But it may have to be a few weeks or so before I can start that...

I just made the thread :D A little early, but maybe someone else will join in too! https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
I have "The Darkest Evening of the Year" by Koontz lying in my living room. Maybe someone wants to read it along with me??
On November 1, I'll be starting The Child Thief. I have a thread started for it. Love to have some company in reading it!

I can't wait to read it. I loved Krampus and this one looks just as good... maybe even better.
See ya there on Tuesday!

The Child Thief is also one I would like to read, but it is not in my country yet so I can't join you on that one.Hope somebody will read Koontz with me, or maybe it is too old a book?

I just looked it up -- it sounds really good! Let me see if my library has it.

Cool! My version has a Golden Retriever on the front. If you know Koontz, he has a real weakness for that breed :-)

It's available in my library system so I put it on hold to get it transferred to my local branch. When it comes in I'll let you know and we can start it :) Should be within the week.
The Vines
anyone interested? if I don't start it this week, I will at the beginning of next week. read or listen, either is ok with me. i'll be listening.
Charlotte and I are still reading The Darkest Evening of the Year if anyone wants to join... :PBut I'm going to clearing out my library books and so I need to read The Suicide Motor Club and Flesh this month. If anyone wants to join in for either or both, let me know! I want to get started on either/both next week.
