I’m hoping to read the 2nd book, Finders Keepers next month with Vickie.
Did you have a time table on this? I could likely read it later in the year with you. But if you want to read it now, don’t let me keep you waiting. I’ll look for your review! 😃👍

I could do The Outsider in May or wait until June to have a bigger group 😊

I can start Finders Keepers any time as well.😊
Vickie wrote: "I can start Finders Keepers any time as well.😊"Want to start around May 1st? I'll be reading The Tomb with Terry but it will be the only book that I'll be reading by then. I usually read 2 books at a time. I'll be a bit slower though.
I can wait with The Outsider. More people, more fun 😊Just let me all know when you are ready and I'd love to read it with y'all. :)

Oh cool!! Hopefully Vickie and I can finish up the Bill Hodges series pretty quick and we can all get to this. I've been wanting to read The Outsider for awhile now. =)
Me too on The Outsider! Looking forward to it.

So many good reviews for The Outsider! When are you planning on reading it?
Marie Helene wrote: "So many good reviews for The Outsider! When are you planning on reading it?"I wanted to finish up the Bill Hodges series first and it looks like everyone seems to be good with that. I think. I think Vickie wanted to finish up this series as well before getting to it.
Maybe by June or July we can all read it? I hope that works for everyone.
And if it doesn't, you all can go ahead with a BR. I don't want anyone to wait on me if they want to read it now.
Both June or July are okay with me. 😄 Just take your time with finishing the Trilogy before!I'll give If it bleeds a try in May. If anyone wants to join me there, just let me know.

Awesome Feli!! I'm glad you can wait. :D
Anyone still up for Bone White? I'm going to start it tonight but I'm a bit of a slower reader so jump in at any time. Of course if it's better than my last read I might read it a bit quicker!!!
I'm up for Bone White but I'm just starting Red Tree, picking it up from the library tomorrow. I can hop on both.
Lisa wrote: "I'm up for Bone White but I'm just starting Red Tree, picking it up from the library tomorrow. I can hop on both."No worries, I didn't like The red Tree, but I don't like unreliable narrators in books so you might like it better.
Here's the link for Bone White. I started last night and ithits the ground running - very creepy already, folk horror vibes. https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

I hope you like this one Melanie! I loved it and it was creepy as f!$k! 🤣😂

Great, I can start that one tomorrow as well.👍😊
I hope you both love this one Lisa and Vickie!
Thank you! I have really enjoyed Malfi thus far. Feel free to join the discussion!
Would anyone like to read The Cabin at the End of the World with me in July?
Addy wrote: "Would anyone like to read The Cabin at the End of the World with me in July?"Oo, that’s a good one!
Addy wrote: "Would anyone like to read The Cabin at the End of the World with me in July?"I never got around to reading it, so I might be able to join you.
Cool:) I’ll start a thread around the end of June.
I would love to join you. I ordered a copy for a group read and it arrived weeks too late, lol. I never read it since.

The Pendle Curse starting on or around 7/13/20
The Haunting of Beacon Hill- maybe in August
House of Fear: An Anthology of Haunted House Stories
if you would like to join in any of these let one of us know and we'll send you a reminder. Our list changes so i would not go buy all 3 of these right a way. Our buddy reads also depend on how many other things we are reading during a month. We loved having so many people join us for Blood and Rain and hope to read with y'all again soon and hopefully even some new members. Also, anyone can create a buddy read so don't be shy about coming here and asking if anyone wants to join you. Remember we have a kindle lending thread if you need to borrow a book- https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
and how to lend a kindle book- https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...
Wow! We definitely have some creepy stuff coming up to read! I do know the Ibsen book "The Haunting of Beacon Hill" is a trilogy so we would have to space those out in the up coming months. Cannot wait to read The Pendle Curse! That one sounds so creepy! :)
Mod
i want to fit some John Saul in there somewhere too. If we don't get to him soon, my craving will go away. i own When the Wind Blows and maybe some Adam Nevill on a really, really slow month.
Mod
My overdrive has 31 John Saul books.

what?! (waits excitedly)

Don’t know what happened to it 😫. My library has it. I put it on hold. It will be two weeks and then I’ll have 21 days!
I don’t know what I’m thinking. I have a ton of books I own to read, a ton of Netgalley and library books.
I just love reading with y’all 😃

Well it looks like we have a lot of "Saul" to read! All of the ones I listed are available to get out on overdrive. Now just to let you all Saul lovers know - I have read quite a few of his books, but I will do rereads of everything listed so whatever you all pick that we all are able to get is fine with me. We will have to coordinate our "watches" (lol) and figure out what books each of us are able to lay our hands on! :)
Okay, guys.... I’ll check in the John Saul. I know I have some. As far as the buddy reads, I have Pendle Curse and I got Chasing Ghosts the other day. I can tell you that The beckoning ghosts by Ibsen doesn’t look to be just a trilogy. But I want to read the first one in August whenever you guys get around to it. I read through it fast and need a refresher. Also did someone mention Adam Nevill ? I love his books if anyone ever sees one of those going on and it seems to be blowing right past me. Lol.

Thank you dear 😂🤣
I’ve read tons of his in the past but it was sooooo long ago as I’m old as dirt! 🤨
