Hi, I'm really excited about reading with everyone, especially since this is my first challenge I'm taking part in :D


message 5: by Becky (new)

Becky  | 557 comments @ Erin I have no idea I have so much to read i am trying to look for buddy reads for whatever I can. Do you know what you are reading in September?


message 6: by Lee (new)

Lee | 1452 comments @Amy Welcome to the challenge world!! I hope that you enjoy it! Do you have any ideas of what you are going to read?

@Becky I have no idea either. Honestly... it'll probably be whatever I can get through? Which means it may be a lot of graphic novels. I would really like to read V for Vendetta at least.


message 7: by [deleted user] (new)

@Erin I have a few books I want to try and get through, though overall I don't really have a plan.


message 8: by Becky (new)

Becky  | 557 comments @Erin I am just really bad when it comes to books I have way too many and now I have the kindle app on ma phone too :)


message 9: by Nivedita (new)

Nivedita Checking in:-).So I am in a terrible slump mostly because I am very busy with school.But my vacations are coming!So looking forward to the challenge.....


message 10: by Lee (new)

Lee | 1452 comments @Amy Having a few you want to get through is a start, so that's good!

@Becky I have loads I want to get through too. My room is just about all books I haven't read so, whoops. xD And then I have the Kindle app on my phone and Overdrive on my phone, so it's just a problem of too many books.

@Nivedita I hope your vacations allow you to get out of your slump! It's not fun being in a slump. :C

Lesa Divine | 1513 comments I'll love to do a buddy read with someone. I have a few books I'll like to read next month.
A Court of Mist and Fury The Novice
A Gathering of Shadows
My Lady Jane which My Lady Jane is a reread I liked it so much I wanna read it again and a reread of Daughter of the Pirate King even though it hasn't been over a year I still want to read these two due that they helped me out of a reading slump
Maybe ill read Six of Crows not sure since I DNF this before but thinking of giving it a try past 3 chapters.

These on my list but I can play around and possible add more lol


message 16: by Becky (new)

Becky  | 557 comments what's everyone reading for this?


message 17: by Lee (new)

Lee | 1452 comments I think I'm going to read V for Vendetta

That's the only one I really have planned, but I borrowed Carrie from my cousin and am actually pumped about it, so if I don't get eager and read it before I'll read it for this too. Other than that, I don't have any plans. But, I'm willing to join buddy reads if y'all have plans. c:

message 40: by Lesa (new)

Lesa Divine | 1513 comments Thanks ladies. Wonder Woman just ok so far I'm only on page 50. But hey interesting enough to get this far. I'm put it aside and get back to the 501 page A Gathering of Shadows. Right now I see I liked part 1 much better.

No problem. I'm glad that you liked it. I've been wanting to read it for months. Hope I can fit it in. :)


message 43: by T.J. (new)

T.J. Burns | 2698 comments I posted my review for The Big F by Maggie Ann Martin .

I finished Emily and the Spellstone by Michael Rubens and The Mesmerist by Ronald L. Smith . I still need to write reviews.

I'm reading Like Vanessa by Tami Charles and Auma's Long Run by Eucabeth A. Odhiambo -- both are very well written, extremely emotional, and sometimes heartbreaking.

TJ, you are killing it gurll!!!! I have less than 20 pages to finish ATBP and I am BR-ing it so additional points! I will start The Kill Order today also bc I am BR-ing that with Sabaha so actually the switching will be between it and The Angel's Share. Idk yet when I will post my reviews bc as I said I am travelling rn but I sure will do when I have some spare time and good connection! Happy reading, team! You are doing a great job!

lol! I was on vacation last month, so I had some reading time. I'm back home now, so I can participate in the group chat more regularly.

When should I read The Kill Order (Maze Runner, #0.5) by James Dashner ? I've only read the first book of The Maze Runner series so far -- should I read The Kill Order now or fourth?

I'm formatting the manuscript for my first novel this month too if you want to read it... ;)


message 47: by Michaela (new)

Michaela (readingrowena) | 723 comments Omg, you are writing!! Of course I would want! Um, fourth definitely because it will spoil many things for you!!


message 48: by Lee (new)

Lee | 1452 comments TJ that's awesome!!!! I'm super excited for you!!


message 49: by Lesa (new)

Lesa Divine | 1513 comments How is everyone doing so far on there reading? I seen in our review we have some points. I will add to those points hopefully soon. Got to write up 3 reviews once I finish A Gathering of Shadows OMG I can't wait to finish this book lol. not saying it was bad but it dragged a bit like about 250 pages. Now it wants to pick up when I have about 75 pages left lol.

Hope everyone doing better than me. Then I can move back on to reading Wonder Woman: Warbringer and also start on The Novice since that book is short.


message 50: by Lee (new)

Lee | 1452 comments I don't feel like I'm doing well right now, but I did finish my first book today Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda which I'll be reviewing shortly.

And you can power through that book, Lesa!
