Yay! I am excited!

Yes! Can't wait to start

Hey!

Hello!

Hi!

Has it already started?

Okay. I am not really sure how this works... So, after we complete a prompt we just mention that "I completed prompt 1"? Like that?

Oh, understood, Thanks Poet!

So, Bonnie and Stormbick.... what are your current reads?

What would be our group name?

Hmm... I am working on that... Any ideas? Where's Bonnie by the way?

I'm currently reading "It ends with us"

I was in a caravan with a rubbish internet connection! I’m currently reading Angles at the table, i could get it finished by tomorrow if yiu wanna start the challenge then?

Okay. That's fine with me!

Yes, that's perfect!

Shall we sort out what books we could read?

Yes, that would help

I’ll do it in a moment. I’m supposed to be reading rn but I can’t get into the book 😭 what type of reader are you? Fast/slow?

i'm a slow reader, but I make that up by reading many hours a day

Great! We hardly have any books in common :(

I know :(, but I'll accept whatever book recs you'll give me

Haha mood. I’d like to say same but I don’t really like reading ebooks that much. Have a look in my ‘TBR I own’ and ‘TBR in Library’ lists and see if there’s any you like that fit the prompts!

Perhaps Shadow and bone trilogy?

Great! What prompt would that fit?

It will fit Fantasy set prompts:
1. Read a fantasy book where magical creatures exist
2. Read a fantasy book with warrior-training involved
3. Read a book where the main character has supernatural/magical powers

Hey do you think The cruel prince might fall in any prompts?

The Cruel Prince falls in "Enemies-to-lovers" romance and, maybe, warrior-training involved

Ah... Then we can do that too! I have wanted to read that from a long time! And I bought it recently. Like Bonnie, I don't like e-books. Actually I have never even tried one.

So, can we do The Cruel Prince and then The Shadow and Bones? Obviously is anyone doesn't have any problem... What do you think?

I finished 2 weeks ago The cruel prince trilogy but I can do Shadow and Bone

When are we starting s&b?

I have a question. We can read books individually and get the points to the group or this is specially buddyreads?

Only buddy reads for the group points!

Oh, okay. So the individual points would still go the group right?

Bonnie wrote: "When are we starting s&b?"

I really wanna start Bonnie... but there's a problem... I didn't get the first book delivered yet... Well, the 2nd and 3rd book are there with me. How about within a day or two?

Could you in any way re-read The Cruel Prince? It would match a lot of prompts! Also, I have been dying to read it!

Yep

Thanks for understanding!

So, now that both of you agree upon The Cruel Prince, when can we start that? I have the entire trilogy ready....

Idm I have the whole trilogy aw well

We can start today, if you can

Yeah, that's fine by me! (I've never done a buddy read before. So, I'm excited!) Let's start then...

(And from the beginning I apologize for the upcoming time zone different problem, if there'll be any!)

Oh okay yeah if I can find time I’ll start today

I'll start today too :)

I’m thinking ‘Lost in the pages’ for our team name?

That's a good name!

Yes! I was then gonna do it haha

Well the name is a good one Bonnie!

Okay. So I have started reading... Well it felt like kind of childish at first honestly, but now I am hooked!

Ch 1
(view spoiler)[OMG. Seriously? Is this even a chapter?! First I thought some pages were probably missing but then I got it and from then onwards I can't seem to stop laughing! (hide spoiler)]

Okay, so I am going to start Ch 6 tomorrow... This is enough for me today!

(view spoiler)[I liked how Jude challenged Cardan with her eyes. I really love the trope Enemies to Lovers! I actually ship them. (hide spoiler)]

What about you guys?

I also love Enemies to Lovers and the ship Jude and Cardan!

Ch-7

(view spoiler)[ Whoa... Jude and Locke. Well, I kinda suspected but didn't see that coming. I like them together but also I ship Jude with Cardan.... For some reason prince Dain sounds suspicious. I feel like he has ulterior motives! (hide spoiler)]

How far have you read? Why is nobody commenting?

Sorry! I’ve read to the same point as you

No worries! I was just wondering if you forgot...

Okay. So, after we finish The Cruel Prince trilogy, we'll be shifting to Shadow and Bones, as planned. And perhaps after that we could do ACOTAR? What do you guys think?
