I have missed reading history books so have been trying to add more into my plans. Unfortunately, NetGalley had the ones I liked all in the same month lol. I'm looking forward to this month :)

I'm just listening to Hunting Ground -an elibrary audio- as soon as I finish it I can start Fireproof (so a few days). Anytime after that I can start it so just let me know :)

I'll be reading so I can start as soon as you do.

Let's aim for middle of next week to start?

Sounds good to me. I'll probably start Tuesday.

Ok, that works for me :)

Wow, have you almost caught up on the In Death series?

I know...only a few more to go. And with the audio it slows me down a bit (getting them, downloading to iPod and finding time to listen). After I finish this I want to start Victoria Thompson's series.

Ooh you'll catch up to me in no time and then we could do a buddy read :-)

That is incentive enough to read faster :)

I have PLENTY of other books to read so I can put the brakes on for a bit :-) I love the series and happy to draw it out as much as possible.

Sounds good! I will let you know when I start :)
