Romance Lovers for the Challenge-Impaired discussion

by Catherine Anderson

I've been wanting to read Annie's Song for ages, but the genre isn't in my "comfort zone." I've heard some incredible reviews/raves about this and want to get to it, hopefully by the end of the year. Who would be interested in joining me in reading this (either as your first attempt or as a re-read)?

**Update**
Start date is December 19th
Chapter breakdown located: Here

I read it a few years ago. It was my introduction to Catherine Anderson. You have to read it! It's a wonderful story!

Thanks Debbie. You are one of many who have encouraged me to read it, so I'm getting excited to dive into it soon.

Never read anything by Catherine Anderson but I'm really liking the reviews for this, so I'm keen to give it a go.

Great, CaroB. Any preference on when? After your house plunderers, err, I mean guests leave for sure. Mid-December?

I'll reread it with you :)

No problems with when. I'm a fast reader.

Great Pamela!

I'm in too, Heather! I'd love a re-read. ☺

Thanks Lisa Kay.

How about a start date of December 12th?

Sounds good to me. Gives the group's series winner for December a chance to finish.

Sounds like a winner ☺

I would like to read it with you also.

Great, Anna! Welcome to the "buddy read."

Heather, I was just working on my "buddy read" calendar and I thought we were starting on December 12th?

I would like to join in on this buddy read as well. This one sounds like something different which I love.

You're right, Lisa Kay. lol
How about the 19th then? If we need to push it to January due to the holidays, I completely understand.

19th works for me!

Just to clarify:


= Dec. 12th

= Dec. 19th

Right?

If that works for everyone.

December 5th is

Yes, saw that... don't know if I'll join in on , but I have it on my calendar! ☺

I would love to read The Princess Bride but I don't have a copy of it yet and the library doesn't have it either.

Oh, Pamela! Can you check at a nearby library?

We've got buddy reads galore!! I love it!

Thank you. Just let me know when we are starting it.

FYI I found a download of The Princess Bride. Thanks.

Where did you find it...I have looked endlessly with no luck.

I can't remember the site but here are 2 download sites I just found

thank you, I will try them.

I'm having trouble finding Annie's Song available as an ebook for me here. Luckily I have time to try and source it as a paperback

I'm putting this one on my "Christmas gift to self" list. If I can get a copy in time, I'll participate in this one too.

I don't have the book. If anybody could get me an e-copy, I'd love to try it.

I have a pdf, if you send me your email address, I can send it to you. =)

Great! strideress_longshanks@hotmail.com. Thanks, Heather!

On its way to you now!

I would just like to say 'Thank You' to those who help us with the e-copies to books...You are wonderful in helping us keep up with the buddy reads.

You rock!

Is it possible for me to get a copy too?

Sure, do I have your email?

On its way

I loved Annie's Song.

Ready to start ☺

Man-oh-man! This month is slipping by.

I'm ready too. Looking forward to this book.

I ended up having to order this one and it was supposed to be in last Wednesday but still haven't gotten my copy. I hope it comes tomorrow because I really want to read this book!

I got tied up shopping for Christmas today, so I'll be posting questions tomorrow. Sorry for the delay. Hope everyone is enjoying the book so far!!

LOL! I haven't started yet, Heather! Was doing a little shopping myself. Tomorrow sounds good to me.

I started and I'm on chapter 18. lol I did a bit of shopping myself. Read most of it last night when family went to bed.
