Nirkatze | 21412 comments We have requests up to here. What are people thinking for continuing with the series? Should I put in requests at 1/month? Or do y'all want a break and pick up later?

Ann-Marie and I are also blitzing the series again in Nov. Because.

Mitali Parihar (mitali7) | 97 comments If you're doing the re-read again in November, we can club Book 5-8 onwards then itself. I'm happy to wait after book 4 and resume back in Nov... whatever works for who all requested this originally...

Nirkatze | 21412 comments I'm happy with going regular schedule on these--I want to pause everything else but I need my regular does of Donut & Carl... as far as I'm concerned, the November blitz is separate...

But I'll go with whatever the group needs.

I love you guys' enthusiasm, but one re-read per year is my limit .. and sometimes I need even longer breaks after a few years/re-reads...


RachelG. | 1329 comments Through chapter 21 and really enjoying almost everything about the story. (view spoiler)


Ann-Marie | 5595 comments I read this (again) yesterday and I still love it so much, especially because we finally get (view spoiler)


Ann-Marie | 5595 comments I would be fine with continuing here and starting again in November at the same time which may mean I am a psycho but yeah, especially since these early books are so short I'd be okay with whatever.


Nirkatze | 21412 comments ^_^ Rest of the series requests made! Then it'll be time to start reading the Patreon chapters...


Ann-Marie | 5595 comments So this is from Bedlam Bride but not really a spoiler, just a prime example of why I love Samantha so much and what all you first time readers have to look forward to with her <3

Not Jeff Hays, but pretty fun.

And oh gods, I think this is from book 6... Donut singing... but someone took the song and made an AI montage of a lot of the characters... it's really interesting seeing what they came up with... and eerie watching AI "live action":

Gotta love when the newsfeed serendipitously lines up...


Nirkatze | 21412 comments Quite a coincidence there!

Oh, BTW, DCC is my next book up for the book club class I teach--so I'll have a LitRPG-themed Kahoot and presentation next Weds. If folks're interested, I'll link them in the threads when I'm finished.

I am also opening the invitation to any regular FBR folks I buddy read with--anyone available 4:30pm Pacific on Weds 22nd and want to join the zoom and see me do an intro for DCC is welcome to join. Message me and I'll send you a zoom link. :)
