Sure, what date works for you? I don't have any major books planned for July and I will be less busy at work so anytime works for me :)

Caitlin I finished Winter so I can do Stars Above in July.

I am starting with and ( Buddy read).

Do books you started before July 1st count?

I believe they only count for pages.

Hey, guys. I'm currently reading The Serpent King by Jeff Zentner and The Water Is Wide by Pat Conroy, but I'm not going to count either one of the books for the challenge. I will begin reading The Passion of the Dolssa and The Other Wes Moore in the upcoming week. I'll keep you posted.

Okay I just finished the buddy read. So that will give us 12 points.

I am not sure what to read next though.

I will be starting and next. Both are buddy reads so they will bring in quite a bit of points.

I'm currently reading which is a buddy read, and also by myself

How are you liking ? I still have to read

Courtney wrote: "I will be starting and next. Both are buddy reads so they will bring in quite a bit of points."

I will probably read some short ones in between that are on my kindle. I am trying to find buddy reads for them, but no body seems interested.

It's okay, the writing isn't the best. I think I would like it a lot more if the writing was similar to the Lunar Chronicles. Some of it's a little predictable, and I'm not a fan of love triangles, but it's still a fun read so far. I like Maxon and Marlee, and I also like America, but I think she can be too perfect sometimes.

What other books do you have on your kindle?

I really liked America in the first one, but after that she gets annoying. Yes it is very predictable. I loved Marlee throughout the whole series. I just finished Wintet so I am still on the hihh of the ending haha.

I will post the link to everything I have on kindle.

Now that I looked at the list not many are over 100, but a few are.

I would be interested in reading Obsidian! & I'm doing a buddy read July 13th for Shadow & Bone if you'd like to join: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

I forgot I had Obsidian. Lol I will try to get in on that buddy read for Shadow and Bone. I have Lady Midnight around that time, and that biok is huge.

Hello? I started The Wrong Side of Right today. Do I count?

Carolyn wrote: "Hello? I started The Wrong Side of Right today. Do I count?"

Are you asking if it counts for this challange?

I know it counts for the challenge. I was saying that you guys don't pay attention to me.

Well you have only posted twice, and I check this everyday. Sometimes I dont see the point of replying just to say okay. I am sorry you feel that way.

I'm 36% of the way done with The Wrong Side of Right. It's 390 pages. What buddy reads are you guys doing for this challenge? Maybe I can help?

https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

I have all of my buddy reads for the month of July here; feel free to join any of them!

Okay. Thank you. I don't think I will be able to join any of them because I'm not able to access any of the books. I have to read from a stupid list. I can't stray from it or I'll get in trouble. Thank you, though.

What books dobyou have to read? Maybe someone on the team can buddy read them with you?

Um... I have to read Stealing Snow by Danielle Paige. And If I Was Your Girl by I think the author is Margaret Russo. Life in a Fishbowl by I don't know who the author is

Thanks, guys, for being so supportive. I finished The Wrong Side of Right by Jenn Marie Thoms. I started the anthology Summer Days and Summer Nights.

Here's the buddy read for Red Queen, I spent all day finishing Shatter Me so I'll probably start this some time tomorrow

I loved Red Queen. Let me know your thoughts on it when you are done.
