message 21: by ❤ Aly ❤ (new)

❤ Aly ❤ | 3575 comments Hey Brooke, sorry that I didn't get to any of the buddy reads that we set up in May. I was taking all of my tests to make sure that I could get into grad school in June. So most of May was focused on that. The good part is that I got in! :)

message 25: by ❤ Aly ❤ (new)

❤ Aly ❤ | 3575 comments I'm going to try to get a lot of my books in before I start grad school in the middle of June. I should be fine because I'm going to have to learn to balance my time. I also am going to need a break and reading is good for that.

message 29: by Lola (new)

Lola Kyle (lavidalola) | 37 comments Can we create a chat on fb or something. I can't keep up with all the threads I have going. It'd be easier to talk


message 30: by ❤ Aly ❤ (new)

❤ Aly ❤ | 3575 comments Lola, what do you mean?

message 37: by Lola (new)

Lola Kyle (lavidalola) | 37 comments Like have a group chat on facebook or a messenger app or something where we can all easily catch up with each other. I'm sorry but It's nauseating for me to follow Goodreads threads lol.

Gillian Murrell | 3686 comments I'm fine with what ever way you want to chat.


message 39: by Lola (new)

message 40: by ❤ Aly ❤ (new)

❤ Aly ❤ | 3575 comments Actually I don't get on Facebook much at all.. I have cut it down to every few weeks


message 41: by Brooke (new)

Brooke ♥booklife4life♥ (booklife4life) | 6447 comments I barely have time to get on here much less FB, haha.

❤ Aly ❤ | 3575 comments I agree Brooke. I'm the same way with school.


message 43: by Brooke (new)

Brooke ♥booklife4life♥ (booklife4life) | 6447 comments Like during the week if i'm on the compute at work, i can be on GR, but it's a final written if we are caught on FB. So i maybe check FB once a day for like 20mins just to see if anything has happened.


message 44: by ❤ Aly ❤ (new)

❤ Aly ❤ | 3575 comments It's not that I don't like it or anything. I just barely use it as much as I used to because of other stuff going on.
