I still have to figure it out, but I at least plan on reading:
- The Assassin's Blade (Throne of Glass, #0.1-0.5) by Sarah J. Maas
- Blood & Honey (Serpent & Dove, #2) by Shelby Mahurin
- Lady Smoke (Ash Princess Trilogy, #2) by Laura Sebastian
- Ember Queen (Ash Princess Trilogy, #3) by Laura Sebastian
- This Golden Flame by Emily Victoria
- Escaping from Houdini (Stalking Jack the Ripper, #3) by Kerri Maniscalco

Most of those are already buddy reads, except for This Golden Flame and Escaping from Houdini! I also want to throw in some romance/new adult books :)
What are you planning on reading next month?

Karen Barber | 13287 comments My reading has dipped in the last week or so. I’m really hoping this challenge (combined with a holiday) will help pick it back up. Think I’m going to start with The Last House on Needless Street as I’ve heard such good things about it.

I'm having a bit of a late start, stressing about some bachelor thesis things, but that's now over (I hope) so I'll finally start reading :)


message 26: by Sibil (new)

Sibil | 2361 comments Hi everyone! I just want to say that I have finished 3 books this week, but so far I have posted just one review. The missing 2 would be online for the end of the next week, as I hope that would be also the reviews for the books I would read this week. So for now I am a bit behind with the reviews, but they would come!!!!
