Okay, what should we go by ? 🤔

I would like to participate in the challenge. 😊☺️ Regarding the name few suggestions such as , ‘August bibliophiles ‘ , bookish chatters, bookish adventures.

I do like bookish chatters 😄, can more people agree to that so that we can name our group "Bookish Chatters" ?

I'm close to completing Verity and I'm making good progress with A Pho Love Story. What are you all reading 😁

yes yes!! bookish chatters is so fun i love it :)

I'll rename it now ☺️

I have been a major reading slump this past month, so I am hoping this group fuels my love for reading and pulls me through!! I am reading some graphic novels for a book club I run at our library for 6-8th grade, and I was thinking about starting the atlas six??? If anyone’s read that. I heard it was really good.

I have heard about the Atlas six before, I heard it's really cool, maybe I'll try to get that book this month 😁

bookish chatters is a cute name!!!

Hey Bri, what are all the books you're reading for this challenge

I have few question. For this challenge should I count only English books? I read few books in my mother tongue, which I usually update in GR.

How do we select books for buddy read? Should it be with in group members?

If anyone is looking for a buddy read this month, I am interested! Just let me know!

Genres I am into right now:
graphic novels
middle grade fiction
fantasy (especially YA but interested in all sorts)
thrillers
romance

Akhila, you can count the books you read in your language. They are as much of a book as the English ones. You can buddy read with anyone you want, it doesn't have to be within the group.

Thank you eve 😊👍🏻

I'm interested in buddy read as well, I mostly read contemporaries, thrillers, romance and literary fiction.

I am planning to read the following books this month. Let me know anyone interested in buddy read.
1.Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine,
2.The lost Apothecary / A thousand ships
3.My brilliant friend,
4. Leaving Coy’s Hill
5. The strange library

I'm thinking of reading one or two books in that list 😄

I'm thinking of reading The Lost Apothecary, do tell me if you want to buddy read it together 😊

Sure Surya I will be happy to buddy read it. When do you want to start ?

Anytime, I'm free to start anytime. You can mention a date and I'll add a discussion post to Buddy read threads and we can discuss it there

Hey Akhila! Is The Strange Library by Haruki Murakami? If so, I'd love to buddy read! I am also interested in The Lost Apothecaryif you guys end up reading that one!

Ok Surya. Once I finish my current read I will let you know 😊👍🏻

Okay Akhila 😁👍

Hi Jaid... yes I am planning to read The strange library by Murakami. It’s a small novel with just 96 pages. So I think we can adjust our time to read it together .

And can we start the lost Apothecary on Saturday?

Yeah sure, let's start on Saturday 😊

@Akhila I put up an buddy read discussion thread in the group and we can discuss about the book here

Thank you @Surya. We will discuss there.
