Hi Saha, please let me know if you will still be joining me for this buddy read.
Yeap! I may start a little later but I am definitely in :)
Towards the end of September suits me. I’ll let you know.
Got around to this one sooner than expected. Will be starting in the next few days.
I will also be starting over the weekend, and hopefully finishing it as well!
Part 1. An enjoyable read which has certainly caused a few wry grimaces (rather than outright laughter). Can’t really argue with this portrayal of human absurdity and it’s always interesting to see ourselves from the outside. Has begun to get a bit more complicated and darker so it’ll be interesting to see how this develops.
Part 2. Really loved this part as it delved into much deeper and complex thoughts and emotions. I assume (view spoiler)I’m wondering how this will all end for ‘Andrew’. I suspect (view spoiler). We will see in the final part.
Part 3. Lot of advice in this part (some more serious than others) which is nothing startling or new (especially if you’re familiar with Buddhism/mindfulness) but nonetheless probably needs repeating as we are so bad at remembering it (view spoiler)Not sure how I feel about the ending but (view spoiler) I’ll be interested to hear what you think.

Pages: 285 pages.
Length: 1 Month (September).
Participants: Valerie, Saha.
Everyone reads at their own pace during a Buddy Read. Because participants can be at different parts of the book at different times, it is extremely important to mark spoilers so that the book is not ruined for someone who is not as far along as others!!!
Mark spoilers by placing {spoiler} before the text and {/spoiler} after the text but use the < and > instead of the { and }.
Happy Buddy Reading!
