Partners will be randomly assigned. Each partner will chose a book from their partner's to-read shelf (or any other shelf you choose, such as "owned", "ebooks", etc.,) to read for the month.

If you wish to participate for November, please comment below. Partners will be announced on or around October 20.

Emily I'll be reading To Kill a Mockingbird.

I read it about 15 years ago, and have been meaning to re-visit it for years, but just haven't gotten around to it yet. Now I will. :)

Hassam Sheikh (Wraith000) Been a while since i read a comic so i'm going with Fables, Vol. 1: Legends in Exile :D

Karin (karindem55) I'll be reading Memoirs of a Geisha - I think...I don't know why I'm so scared of this book. There is a slight chance I'll read The Secret Keeper instead.

Karin - why scared to read Memoirs of a Geisha? I rather liked that book.

I really don't know - I'm guess I'm just worried I'm not going to be able to get into it and I have this thing about having to finish a book

I'll be reading Of Bees and Mist. I've heard many good things about this book, so I'm excited to read it!

Emily I read To Kill a Mockingbird. I had read it in school about 15 years ago and have seen the movie a few times (although not for a few years). While I remembered the big events, there was a lot about the story that I didn't remember, so I'd been meaning to re-read it for a while. I loved it. So glad I re-read it. The story was great, the characters were amazing... I could just gush forever. Haha. I think this will definitely have to go on my list of books to re-read every few years.

Definitely try Whistling Past the Graveyard too if you can.

I finished Of Bees and Mist. I found it difficult to get into the characters and the story. It was an ok story, but I was disappointed.

Whistling Past the Graveyard is actually on hold for me at the library, so I will be reading it soon. :)

I finished Memoirs of a Geisha this morning - thanks for encouraging me to read it - so good, gave it 4 stars
