Riya So, the YADBC has officially started a Buddy Reads section :D For those of you who don't know what this is, essentially people can mention books they want to read soon and if other people want to read the same book a thread will be created for them (and whoever else) to discuss it! This thread is for people to mention what books they want to read to see if other people are interested :)


message 2: by Riya (new)

Riya Well I'll start!!
Here are some of the books I have right now from the library and would love to buddy read:
Shatter Me, Everlost, Article 5, The Scorpio Races, Fallen, Enclave, TimeRiders, and the 5th Wave :)

David Estes (davidestesbooks) | 1040 comments I'm in for Enclave as soon as I finish my current read! And I'd also read Article 5 but I might need a few weeks ;)


message 4: by Riya (new)

Riya Awesome! I'll make a new thread for Enclave, and we can start whenever (I've also got other reads going!)

I haven't read the first one in the series yet. I would love to. But I must read the first one first.

These are all the books I have that I must read.
I will be doing a tbr challenge this month for my self. So if anyone wants to read one of these books I am all for it.

A Hidden Fire is more fantasy than dystopian, but it is for people who like dystopian

Riya Courtney, in teh buddy reads folder there's a discussion for Prodigy, so if you want to just check back in there when you want to read maybe you'll find someone to read with. If not there will always be peopel willing to discuss :) And do you want an explanation of buddy reads then? :)

Cathleen Anderson | 2 comments is the 5th wave any good?


message 40: by Courtney (new)

Courtney (toothpickpiggy) | 165 comments i wanna read that book i hear its amazing!!! just like The Hunger Games i hear ^^^


message 41: by Riya (new)

Riya there's already a 5th wave buddy read if you want to join Cathleen or Courtney :)

And Buddy Reads: You essentially read a book with at least one other person. You can go super relaxed and just talk about the book ocassionally or you can go super intense and plan out how many chapters a day you'll read. The more people the more relaxed it normally is :) Either way if you find one or a few good people to read with you'll have a lot of fun discussions :)


message 42: by Courtney (new)

Courtney (toothpickpiggy) | 165 comments its sound really fun!! When and if i get a book someone is doing a BR with i will MOST DEFFINETLY join!


message 43: by Riya (new)

Riya Awesome- remember that you can occasionally check in and mention some books you'll be reading, and most of the time you'll find someone to buddy read with :D
