✨    jami   ✨ (jamieson_) | 396 comments Yay ! Glad we're all here.

Does anyone know what books they'll be planning on reading? I thought I might post some of the ones I'm planning and then we could buddy read for the double points of people wanted to


A Darker Shade of Magic (Shades of Magic, #1) by V.E. Schwab - BR on the 3rd set
The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller - BR set on 15th

no BR set
The Young Elites (The Young Elites, #1) by Marie Lu Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them The Original Screenplay by J.K. Rowling Counting to Zero by A.J. Quinn The Sixth Event by Kristen Morie-Osisek


Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) It is almost time! I do quite a few challenges, so it is difficult to actually plan what I'm going to read, and I also tend to be a bit of a mood reader, but I will try to max out on some BR points :-)


message 15: by Wolf (Alpha) (new)

Wolf (Alpha) | 3155 comments I do quite a few challenges as well so I can't really plan out my books either.
