also, how many pages/chapters do you want to read every x amount of days?

and what's a good time that you can be on goodreads?

(these are all just ideas there's no way i could possibly finish ALL of them)

(i realized i only have 40 books on this account)

here's the link for my account with all of my books:
https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1...

So I have lots of books on my list but my high priority ones (these are the ones that I already have) are:

- The Cousins by Karen McManus
- They Wish They Were Us by Jessica Goodman
- the Legend series
- Heroes of Olympus series
- Hunger Games series (currently reading Catching Fire)

A good time for me to be on Goodreads is probably every weekday from 9 to 4 EST.

Do you have any of these books? I just listed these because they are the ones on my TBR that I have. The ones you listed are also on my TBR, but it would be hard for me to get them in time.

i just listed like half my tbr lmao

ooooh i've been meaning to read the cousins and the legends series

Is it possible for you to get any of them? My hold for the cousins on libby came in, and I have physical copies of the first two books of the legend series

i just got legend (from libby) and i can start whenever you're available!

lmao i have like 200+ books in my tbr

Erin wrote: "i just got legend (from libby) and i can start whenever you're available!"

oh that's perfect! we can start today or tomorrow if you like

i can read up to 100 pages a day (depends on the day though)

and same. i'm on from like 9-4 EST every weekday. weekends i'm on a little less.

With school and all I'll have to see how much time I have but I think 100 pages a day is doable :D

so should we start today? how much? libby's a bit icky when it comes to pages so i think i'll have to go with an approx. %.

Erin wrote: "so should we start today? how much? libby's a bit icky when it comes to pages so i think i'll have to go with an approx. %."

We can read up to 99/305, so approximately 32%, since that is the end of June's chapter. Since it is halfway through the day we can say by the end of tomorrow we should have that done.

Also, I know Libby is weird with pages so I just looked and the last sentence of that chapter is "I stumble into a Skiz fight" just so you know

ok! *excitement*

how about we both go read and check in tomorrow morning at about 9-10am?

Erin wrote: "how about we both go read and check in tomorrow morning at about 9-10am?"

(or any time works)

:D

Since it's the first day, I was thinking we should be done with 99 pages by the end of tomorrow, but we can definitely check in tomorrow morning

that works for me!

Eva wrote: ":D

that works too!

i'll just comment on here when i finish my pages

Erin wrote: "i'll just comment on here when i finish my pages"

Yeah, I'll do the same. I'm excited to start this :)

ooooh so i was just going through your tbr shelf (in a very non-creepy way) and saw a bunch of agatha christie books on there! do you wanna read some this month? i've read one book by her (and then there were none) and i LOVED it

I also adored and then there were none! I would be down with that, the only thing is I would have to get them on Libby in time and you would too. I can do some searching and see if there are any available books by her that have more than one copy, that way we can both read them at the same time.

I did some searching and on Libby, there are unlimited copies of The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha Christie, so maybe that can be our next read!

oooooh sure! sounds great!

i'm about 19% through with Legend and here are some random thoughts:
- for some reason i thought day was day was a girl until a little while ago....
- idk if this is just libby being weird but all of day's chapters are bolded and it's really annoying
- i like the pacing. it really just dives right into it from the beginning

i didn't have a lot of time yesterday so i only got to 22%..... i think i can get to page 99 by the end of today though!

ooh i think the libby thing is because in the book, all of Day's chapters are in a different color and different font than June's. That must be annoying :|

Erin wrote: "i didn't have a lot of time yesterday so i only got to 22%..... i think i can get to page 99 by the end of today though!"

I didn't have time yesterday either lol but page 99 will be doable for me, we can check in at 10 am tomorrow if that works!

Alright!

i've finished the first 99 pages!

how many pages do you want to read today?

Erin wrote: "how many pages do you want to read today?"

I finished 99 too! We can read up till page 148, which is the end of June's chapter, and the last words are "Just a score to settle."

ok!

what do you think of the book so far!

*?

personally i think that for now, it's like a 3.5 star read. i feel like it's not terrible but it's not something super special either

i'm almost at page 148! i'm gonna sleep now and get to it tomorrow (today, technically. it's 12:20am) morning.

For me, it's probably a 3 or 4 star read, I agree.

I'm very busy for the rest of the day, so I think we can read to page 204 (the last words are "elevator door") if that works for you?

yup!

how many pages do you wanna read today?

How about until 287, the last words are "follow me" Then tomorrow we can finish the book :)

works for me!

i've finished my chapters for today!

Quick question - what time zone are you in? I'm in New Jersey so I'm in EST, we might not be in the same one.

Also, we're finishing the book today, yay XD
