This year I want to read more of what I want and less of what I "have to" read. I also want to read some of the older books on my TBR, series I've been putting off, books that I own, and maybe get through some of my longer books as well. I'm going to go back and look at books that I wanted to read in previous years, but didn't get to for various reasons.

Would you want to do Malibu Rising as a buddy read?
Janice wrote: "Would you want to do Malibu Rising as a buddy read?"Sure, when were you thinking? I've started, but honestly haven't gotten that far.
I have 4-1/2 hours on the book I'm currently reading, and then I could start. Say Wednesday?
Thanks for setting up the thread, and for waiting for me. :)
No problem. It's always more fun to read with a buddy. :)
