Do you enjoy buddy reads? Do you have a book or short-list of books you would like to read with other people? Post your buddy reads wishlist in this topic, so you can find other people with whom to form your buddy reading groups.
Once you find your people, and work out which social media setting you want to use (or physical location, if you want to try setting up an in-person mini book club in your area). Zoom, facebook chat, etc. can also be useful depending on how many people you recruit for your book(s) and how often you want to connect while reading. We'll have space in this Goodreads group for hosting your buddy reads, too, but it is up to you and your group where you locate your buddy read.

The books on my stack that might make good buddy reads for September are:
The Absolute Book, by Elizabeth Knox
Rabbits, by Terry Miles
The Help, by Kathryn Stockett
The Corrections, by Jonathan Franzen
Area X: The Southern Reach Trilogy, by Jeff Vandermeer

Anyone interested in joining me for one of these books?

September is almost over, did you read all of your list? Are there any you may want to read in October?

I finished The Corrections, but didn't get around to starting The Help yet. So it is definitely still on my TBR list for October.
