In January of 2011, I asked Erin Reads readers if anyone would like to help me tackle my TBR list and accomplish my 2011 reading goals by reading books from my list with me. The response was enthusiastic, and Reading Buddies was born.

Reading Buddies has a formal component and a less formal component. Each month I read a book more formally on Erin Reads, with a discussion post and a wrap-up post. I also set up informal reads with others interested in a particular book. We may coordinate posts on our blogs (if we all have one), discuss by email, and/or discuss here.

These are NOT formal readalongs! There are no scheduled check-ins and no official discussion questions. Read at your own speed. Post as often or seldom as you’d like. You don’t have to have a blog to participate. Join in at the last minute or decide not to read along if your schedule gets too busy. The goal is fun, not stressful!

For a full schedule of books and instructions for nominating a book, check out the Reading Buddies page on Erin Reads.

If you have questions about Reading Buddies, please feel free to ask them here and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Hey Mary! Unfortunately, the project is kind of winding down right now. We're doing our last book for the time being: Possession by A.S. Byatt. If you want to pick it up quickly, I'll be posting the last discussion (for now) on Friday, August 3.

Thanks for your interest! :)
