This thread is where you sign up for TBR Pairs April. You will be paired up with another member and will choose a book to read together and discuss in April. This is all in an effort to decrease that TBR (to-be-read) list.

When you sign up, please answer the following questions.

1. What is your favourite genre?
2. Do you prefer YA or adult books? (Only choose ONE)
3. What is your least favourite genre?
4. Would you read non-fiction?

You will (to the best of my ability) be paired with someone who answers the three questions in a compatible way.

This thread will close on March 25th, and you will be notified of your TBR twin no later than the 28th.

Happy reading!

~Jack

Zara's Corner Hi Jack,

In this post you have written: "February 25th, and you will be notified of your TBR twin no later than the 28th." Should this be the 25th and 28th of March?

message 19: by Sam (new)

Sam (theliteraryhooker) Oh can I just add one thing for my request? I'm trying reallllllly hard not to buy any new books for 3 months (my wallet could use the break!) so whoever I get paired with, I'd like to read something off my shelf. I do have like 300+ books kicking around that I haven't read yet though, so I'm still not *too* limited.
