Mariana and I are planning to read Wild Oats for RATA challenge- Americana. We are starting in a week. Anyone interested can join us in the Wild Oats BR thread.

Anyone interested in joining me for a buddy read of Duchess by Design by Maya Rodale?

I can join you! When do you want to start?

Not sure if a Buddy Read has already happened for Tessa Dare in the past, but I was wondering if anyone would want to join me for Romancing the Duke and perhaps the rest of the series.

Somehow, I've never read Tessa Dare but really wish to!

I love Tessa Dare! And somehow I missed this series. It’s available on Hoopla too. When do you want to start?

That's a good one. Enjoy ladies!

Oh awesome! I still have about 3 books I need to finish for other BR's and challanges before I can begin. How about you?

How does the something post 20th sound to you?

My hold just came available. I will try to join in, but since it’s a physical copy, I probably will not be able to read too quickly.

Monday’s are best for me so the 19th or 26th of November will work!

I’m in the middle of a challenge too. I’ll be squeezing these BRs in. We can start on the 20th. No problem.

Sounds good, I'll start a thread for the same then! :)

Joanna and Geri,
I am starting one book on Saturday and another shortly after the 20th. However, if we want to read just a couple chapters a day, let's plan to start on the 19th and read slowly through the end of the month. Does that work?

Sounds good to me Mariana!

Hi, everyone. WhiskeyintheJar/Kyraryker and I will be reading Kiss Me at Christmas by Valerie Bowman on December 10th.

The post is here and it is actually on a separate group called the Romance Book Buddy Reading, so I hope it's okay to share it here.

Thanks, ladies. I hope so, too.

Hello everyone!

I wish to read The Pennyroyal Green series by Julie Anne Long for the Mad About Series Challenge 2019.

Anyone interested in a Buddy Read for the series and/or some books from the series. It starts with The Perils of Pleasure

Yes! I think there are a couple of us wanting to read it. It will be a reread for me, but I want to start at the beginning.

Yes, it is the one we discussed. I think Sam may have also.

Cool! I am in then! :D

Awesome then I guess we can definitely do a buddy read! :)

I'll join for The Perils of Pleasure, as it's the only one in this mostly excellent series I have yet to read. I might sporadically jump in and reread some of my favs from the series also.

I might join for the Perils of Pleasure as it's on my tbr. I have read (and enjoyed) some of the series already, but not that one. When are we starting, and is there a discussion thread?

Hi, everyone!

Tanya and I are Buddy reading Years by LaVyrle Spencer. If you are interested, we are discussing it here.

Enjoy! I have been waiting to read another by Spencer but don’t have time to join right now.

For those that have been reading the Pennroyal Green series, there is a thread for What I Did For a Duke at https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

All are welcome even if you haven’t been reading the series!

Hey all,

I am going to send the newsletter out tonight, so if you have an upcoming buddy read, go ahead and post it and I can list it in the newsletter.

Thanks!
Joanna

Hi everyone, #2 of Olivia Parker's Devine and Friends series To wed a Wicked Earl has won our September poll. I personally hate reading out of order, and would like to read the first sometime this month. Any takers for a buddy read??

At the Bride Hunt Ball Olivia Parker

I have set up the discussion thread for At the Bride Hunt Ball #1 Devine & friends by Olivia Parker
At the Bride Hunt Ball Discussion Starting sometime this month. Everyone welcome.

I haven't yet decided to read our September group read, but I have At the Bride Hunt Ball in my tbr.
Count me in!

I can start reading anytime after 12th.

That's great Priya.

Yay!

I think I'll join. The book's been on my TBR shelf for years now. I never have enough interest to begin reading the book. Hopefully, work won't keep me too busy.

I've actually read To Wed a Wicked Earl back in 2015 but have not read At the Bride Hunt Ball. I recall being confused during the first chapter (or prologue) of To Wed a Wicked Earl. Not having read the first book, I can only assume that Ch.1 (or prologue) begins with a scene that took place in Book 1.

Yeah, I hate feeling as though I am missing something. We decided to start about the 17th, hope that works.
