We had a tie this month! The group voted to read the Fantasy nominees The House in the Cerulean Sea and The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue in July. The winner for this genre was House of Earth and Blood (Crescent City #1). Have you read any of the other nominees for this award? Which have you read and what did you think? Which was your favorite?

Do you plan to read any of them in the future? How about setting up a buddy read of one that you are interested in this month? Use this thread to discuss and find a buddy!

Schedule buddy reads here, then set up a separate thread to discuss.

What did you think of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue? I'm planning to read it with the group. The burb sounds just ok to me, but I've heard good things about it so I'm hoping it's one of those books that surprises you with how good it is.
