Christian Fiction Bloggers discussion

Reading a book is fun, but reading a book with someone makes it SO much more fun! So that is why we started monthly Buddy Reads :D

Here is the February-April Buddy Read discussion page. Leave a post with the genres you like to read or which books you have that you want to read in February-April, and then those who want to read the same book(s) or who enjoy the same genres can ask to buddy with you.

Here's an example of how to post:

Hi! I enjoy reading lots of different genres, but my favorite is historical fiction. I am planning on reading A Passion Most Pure by Julie Lessman next month, but I am willing to read another book as well.

Once you know who you are buddying with, please leave a comment HERE with the names of the people buddying up (you can buddy up with more than one person) and the book(s) you will be reading.

Note:
Threads from the previous month(s) will remain in this folder until people are through reading their book(s). Once it is obvious that a discussion thread is finished, it will be moved to the archives.

Anybody want to buddy on "Don't Look Back" or "A Killer Among Us" by Lynette Eason?

Melanie, I just ordered Don't Look Back. (So I should have it in just a few days) I would love to buddy read it with you, if you want! :)

That'd be great! I have a library copy and will be ready to start it whenever you are. :)

Sounds great! :) I'll let you know when it arrives! :)

Anyone interested in reading either of these?

McKenzie by Penny Zeller

I'm hoping to read them in Feb or March.

I would love to read McKenzie with you.

Awesome! I look forward to it. :)
I'm currently doing a buddy read with Melanie & would like to finish it before starting this one, though.

Hey all! I haven't been on here in awhile due to business but things have calmed down and I'm back into reading up a storm! Here are some of the books I'm planing on reading soon if anyone is interested!

Hey Abbi - Caitlyn and I are going to be buddy reading Don't Look Back, so if she is alright with it, maybe the three of us could read it together??

Oh, and Courting Morrow Little is on my Kindle to-read list, so I'd love to buddy read that book with you. :)

Ok Melanie! Sounds good!

I would love to! That would be so much fun! :D

Megan I'd love to read The Preacher's Bride with you!

That book about Washington looks REALLY good! He has always been my favorite historical figure and I actually wrote all of my high school papers on him which culminated into a around 50 page report. Let me know how it is?

Dawn, I have a copy of It Happened At The Fair. Want to buddy read it? I might not be able to start it for a couple weeks, though.

Sure we can buddy read it. I've got it on my Kindle and have only just barely started it.

Does anyone want to read or

I have already read most of those books but I just wanted to say that The Negotiator and Love Comes Softly are some of my favorite books and I have read them and their series many times. Also the Karen Witemeyer ones are AWESOME! Enjoy!

I could buddy read Through the Fire with you. It sounds really good. :)

Sure! I need a couple days to finish the one I am currently reading and then I am ready to go. But warning, I am not a fast reader unless it grabs me and I can't stop! Lol!

Sounds good. :)

Here are some books I would like to get to soon:

Anyone interested in buddy reading one of them?
