message 73: by Ciara (new)

Ciara (ciaraxyerra) | 191 comments I'd love to join you for "The Guest," but I am #119 on the hold list (I've already been waiting for two months!). So I don't expect to receive it until 2024, probably February, maybe January if I'm lucky.

I'm #3, so it also could be January


message 79: by SarahKat, Buddy Reads (new)

SarahKat | 5930 comments Jen and Ciara, do you want The Guest to be moved to January or February as confirmed?

My instinct is to wait until I'm a lot closer to the top of the hold list. At the rate things are going, I'll probably get it in January, but I don't want to speak too soon!


message 82: by Jen (new)

Jen Well-Steered (well-steered) My library is unpredictable. Sometimes you're #3 in the queue and you have it a week later, sometimes it's 2 months. January is fine with me.

message 94: by Beth (new)

Beth | 1256 comments For January I’m suggesting The Outsider by Stephen King. (This is the first of a trilogy, so the subsequent books to be read in Feb and Mar).

I have to dip out on The Guest in January. It was on the Lucky Day shelf at my library yesterday so I went ahead & snagged it! I love the Lucky Day shelf. But I only get the book for three weeks (no renewals) so I need to read & return by December 19!


message 96: by Jen (new)

Jen Well-Steered (well-steered) I'm still 3rd on the list. Can it stay up as suggested in case other people want to join?


message 97: by SarahKat, Buddy Reads (new)

SarahKat | 5930 comments Sure I've changed it back to suggested for January

All else Updated as well

Did you want to join the December one? There is no rule about repeat buddy reads so if you want to start it in January, you can keep your suggestion open.

Lorraine | 2125 comments Hi SarahKat. Valerie and I will be reading Hopscotch by Julio Cortazar in March.
