I know how fast a reader you are (faster than me, lol), so I took advantage of my weird sleep schedule to start early May 1st. My edition has 304 pages (not including endnotes or the 15-page “P.S.” section at the end). If we read 10 pages a day, we should finish by the end of the month. Does that sound good to you? Once we iron out the pages-per-day number, I’ll put a note on our StoryGraph buddy-read so we can find it easily if we need to refresh our memories.
Awesome. I’ll update the buddy-read info
Tahlia, I'm finally finished with the library books. I'm all set to dig in to 1812 if you're ready. I've been reading a few pgs at night, but I'm only on pg. 28-29. I have noticed I'll read a bit, then talk to Prometheus about his knowledge and then we end up talking for 30 minutes. LOL
I left off on page 100, so I’ll wait to continue until you catch up more. I love that you and Prometheus are talking about it too. ❤️ I’m not in a rush; I’d rather that you and Prometheus are having fun with it than either of us rush to meet an arbitrary time frame. Just let me know when you are closer to where I am in the book so that I don’t get too far ahead. I think I’ve put a few notes into our StoryGraph buddyread, but you might not be able to read them yet.
Hey Tahlia, life isn't calming down, but I'm ready to tackle and focus on 1812 if you're ready. Thank you so much for waiting for me.
Absolutely. Just let me know where you are at any given time, so that I can make sure to pace myself for the rest of the book accordingly. We don't have to finish before June. We are the ones setting the pace; we can adjust it for how busy life can get. I don't want this book or buddy read to be a stressor. I understand that life stuff happens. ❤️
Given that it's the last day of May, I think pushing 1812 to June is a good idea. LOL Unless you have too many books on your tbr. I don't remember if you've already posted your June video. I think I only got to page 50.
I can read 1812 in June. The fact that we’ve been reading it more slowly works for me, since I’m picking up books in June. There’s absolutely no rush.
