Our Shared Shelf discussion

Anyone else not got their copy of this month's book yet? lol
I had to order mine in from overseas, I'm hoping I'm not the only one who might have to play catch up every month.

Well I have it, but haven't had a chance to start it yet due to other reading obligations.

I have a feeling there will be many playing catch up. I wouldn't worry about it. It's not just about the discussions after all. What's important is that clubs like this provide opportunities for people to pick up books that they may not have chosen themselves.

If you make the effort to read the book and consider it, you are already miles ahead!

I haven't but it is on reserve at the library.

Great point Robin, that actually made me feel a little less stressed about not having my book yet. ha, cheers for that.

Have to get mine too, hoping to do it this weekend.

I haven't been able to find it anywhere :( I'll read it as soon as I can though

Amazon, Jennifer! And You can get it fairly quickly (: mine should be here tomorrow

Also remember to check Independent Bookstores in your area. Even second hand.

I picked mine up from a fantastic Independent dealer after searching the main chains.....

I'm fifth on the waiting list at the library. It will be a bit before I get my hands on it!

I get all my books from Book Depository, another place to look if you need to Jennifer.

Just popping in to say I haven't either--I'm 33rd of 35th on the library waiting list, ha! One thing that's great about Goodreads at least is that when we finally do read the book, we can go back through and find the thread talking about it. I bet there will be a lot of people doing this anyway, since people have various time commitments and read at various speeds. :)

Moved to the "My Life on the Road" folder

I just ordered mine today from Amazon- when you order a real book though you get a sneak peak at the first few pages, so technically I have started it, LOL!!

I'm still on the waiting list at the library :-/

Nope, can´t find it at all here in my country. Hopefully I can find something online :(

I just got mine yesterday, but I just started another book and want to finish that first so I probably won't start it til next week!

I haven't too !

I only picked up my copy yesterday. Looking forward to starting it sometime in the next few days.

Crom

going to the post office later today to collect a package. hope it's the book.

mine just came in the post but haven't started it yet! glad I'm not the only one!!!

Iam waiting for amazon To deliver in Brazil...

I ordered it from the library, but when I checked on it, it was loaned out until march 2017 :) So I'm gonna skip this one...

I don't have the book yet, mostly because I read some of the quotes shared here and I have not been impressed, that added to the fact that I find it a little over priced for kindle has disappointed me, so I think I'll skip this one and see if there's a better one on the horizon.

I don't have this book yet. Someone tell me how i can get it? I live in BH Minas Gerais Brasil!!!!

I eventually gave in to the ebook world to get the book, I much prefer a paperback but it doesn't seem to exist for this one and the hardback is too expensive and impractical for me (I mainly read on the tube).
The kindle app is free to download on tablets and smartphones and 'My Life on the Road' cost me £7.79. I've just started and I love it already, so it's totally worth getting in any form you can!
Hope this helps!

I just ordered my book from Amazon. I am a late joiner to the group and happy not to be the only one!

I'm also waiting for my copy to arrive.. got an update that it will take a bit longer :p
but it just makes me more excited to finally be able to read it :)
love this book club already

Also ordered from book depository and waiting for it to come.. But i did order it late.. Cause it took me a while to find out about the group.. Hopefully we will know the next book soon to order it as well!!!!

I just joined last night so I went to the library today and their copy has to stay in the library! WTF???? So, I bought the hard copy at the book store since I couldn't bare to wait for a delivery. I'm reading tonight :)

Just got mine yesterday evening, bout to demolish this reading session.

I haven't yet. But I have reserved it from the library.

I'm waiting to get the ebook from my library. Shouldn't be too much longer now. I hope I'll have time to read it, as I have other book club commitments.

I just received mine about three days ago...but I've not had a chance to start it yet. I'm excited though!

I came late to the party as well. I ordered it from the library and find I'm 20th on the list! I just hope I receive it before the end of the month! I remain cautiously optimistic...

I can't find it in any book store where I live. I will get from Amazon as ebook,

I couldn't "find" the book in the bookstore either (initially) and had to ask...it was on a special table for new biographies....not on the self.

I haven't been able to access it yet and will probably be playing catch up. Hopefully there are lots of others doing the same so we can discuss previous months books together!

I just got mine last night! It's not a huge book you can definitely catch up. Don't stress!

I'm gonna read it on Kindle Amazon
I can't wait

Nope still waiting for mine. I have mine on hold at the library and I am number 52 out of 69. I most likely won't be seeing that book until late March, early April. :( I also had the audio on hold and that has not been working out well either I also won't be seeing that until March.

I get this right now here in my hands, so I'll star to read

OMG Kaitlin, you are VERY PATIENT. I saw 24 on the waiting list of copies for check out and said "no way". You might get yours by 2017, unless they have lots of copies circulating, and if that's the case, then frugality and patience wins for it could be sooner than spring. Fingers crossed for you!

Still waiting for the library book. I hope we find out the second book, so I can be ahead of the line for next month!

Same here.

A suggestion for people who have books on hold at the library. I put the book on hold soon after Watson started this club and today was still 200th in line. However, I also put the audiobook on hold and received it a couple of days ago. Try looking into the many different versions (large print, digital, etc.) available at your local library!

I finally got the book on audio. Woo hoo I can finally participate. We shall see how I do on the audio fingers crossed.
