a true crime book club. discussion

I've decided to participate in the Reading Rush this year. I know Peter and Mel are also participating in the RR. So is anyone else going to? I can't find anyone in the find friends and feel a bit lonely. 😔

I’m doing reading rush I’m so excited 😆 although I’ve made a last minute change to my TBR but it’s all sorted now what’s on your TBR?

I am participating this year.

Yep, I'm ready to go. I saved Zodiac for the movie adaptation.

🙋🏻‍♀️ First time participating in the Rush 📚

I'm new here...what is Reading Rush?

Yes. I still don’t fully have a TBR together, which is awful!

I am going to try to participate this year.

So how do we find our friends? I tried to find Mel and I got every name but...🤔

I am participating. Anyone wants to be friends my handle is @ladythor.

This is the first time for me. I've changed my list a few times. Then I decided I'd check off 2 challenges at once. So one of these is on my Goodreads summer challenge list. Another one is from Peter's supermarket reads this month. 😁

Oops I forgot my list. What books are on your lists.
READING CHALLENGES

1 .Read a book with purple on the cover

Turn of the screw

2. Read a book in the same spot the entire time

Camino Island


3 . a book you meant to read last year

4 . Read an author’s first book

The Thomas Berryman Number


5 . Read a book with a non-human main character

The Cat Who Went Bananas


6. Pick a book that has five or more words in the title

The Cat Who Had 60 Whiskers


7. Read and watch a book to movie adaptation

Good Omens

oh, okay I got it. So you would search for vickyshaw instead of just Vicky since on my profile it has @vickyshaw.

I'm under J.N. Cahill

My List:

Purple On the Cover: This One Summer by Jillian & Mariko Tamaki
Meant to Read Last Year: Emma in the Night by Wendy Walker
Non-Human POV: Animorphs: The Experiment (alien POV)
Author's First Book & Movie to Book Adaptation: Zodiac by Robert Graysmith
5 Words in the Title: Tiggy and the Giant Wave by Jane Carruth

I’m doing reading rush! I posted my Tbr on my YouTube channel. I haven’t decided on the book to movie one yet though.

I do it every year!

purple on cover + book-to-movie + read in one spot: Romeo & Juliet (Manga Classics edition)

non-human character + author's debut book: The Bees (by Laline Paull)

meant to read last year + five or more words in title: My Year of Rest and Relaxation (by Ottessa Moshfegh)

I kinda am debating doing The Woman in the Window for the 5+ words and book I meant to read last year, but it's so much longer than my current choice for those challenges. I bet it reads fast though.

I dunno. I dunno.
