SOS: Serious Overload of Series discussion

Following on from our Weather Warden series completion, we're about to start the Outcast Season which is a spinoff of the series. Even if you haven't read Weather Warden, it's a great time to join us on this ongoing buddy read!

When's a good time for you guys? Looks like I can start between March 4-10?

Hey all! *waves*

I have so many buddy reads in March that I'm going to have to squeeze this one in somewhere. Don't worry about me. I'll start whenever I can. I do think earlier in the month might be better for me.

I can do it at any time. I don't think I've signed up for any other buddy reads yet...or I might have 2, but I can fit it in anywhere.

yep, lemme know what dates are good for you ladies. I have issues with putting the book down once I've started though!

Yay, I'm excited to have Midu and Jean join us, welcome guys! OK Let's put it the week of March 4 then.

I always have a problem with putting Rachel Caine books down Midu, you're not alone there!

I have both book one and two pulled from the stacks and ready to go...

Awesome Lis, sounds like a plan! I'm just ordering them from Bookdepository now.

EDIT: Just ordered the whole series to date to sit next to my weather warden series :D

You guys ready to start this next week? I got the 3rd book today, waiting on the rest. Shouldn't be long now, I'll start when it arrives.

So excited to start this!

me three!

Yep, should be ready to go mid-week...

I think I'll end up being late for this buddy read. Too many must-read-now books coming up. I have a few author signings that I need to prepare for (i.e., I don't want to accidentally hear any spoilers). I'll try to get to this one by the middle of the month. *fingers crossed*

Well just jump in whenever you read it. Who are you going to see? I'm going to a Richelle Mead signing up here on the 9th.

Nice! I have Patricia Briggs on March 6, and by some miracle I actually have already from the library. Marissa Meyer and Ann Aguirre are on March 13. I need to catch up on , and . Plus, I got from the library after being on the waiting list for quite a while. I'll be busy. :)

OMG Paris I am so jealous! I love Richelle Mead! Please take a photo or something :)

I'm still waiting for my book to arrive in the mail, should be any time now.

I will. I'm excited to meet her again. She says she might read something from Fiery Heart which is awesome.

Let us know when your book gets here. I'm just gonna keep reading random stuff until y'all are ready.

Oooh that's awesome, I can't wait to see what that book is about. I heard its from a male perspective too!

Will do, I'm hoping tonight or so. I'm really itching to read it. Currently reading which is awesome.

Just started in audio today...

I've heard good things about . Wasn't that a freebie at some point?

Yeah indeed, I wasn't so sure about it at the start but I really got sucked in. It's very fairy tale like and whimsical, loving it.

Sweet. I'll have to bump that up on my list.

My book isn't here yet, I suspect it's at the post office waiting for me so feel free to start if you want Paris. It'll probably be here next week.

Yeah I think it was a freebie, definitely worth it :)

I can wait. I have other things to read so I don't have to get to it right away. Just let me know when you get it.

Oh good. I'm glad you all haven't started yet. It will probably still be a while until I can get to this one. :(

That's ok Jean, we'll still be here whenever you can start it :)

Ladies, I just got home from the Richelle Mead signing. If you ever have a chance to go to one of her signings do it!! She's so freaking nice.

Wow Paris that is SO amazing! I'm so jealous of you meeting Richelle Mead, it must have been amazing :)

Great picture, Paris! Your eyes are super blue. Very pretty. :)

Thanks Jean. It was really amazing Jeann. She actually remembered me from Twitter which made it even more awesome.

Awww, that's sweet! Reminds me when I came at Rachel Caine going "I was the person on your Facebook that was really excited to see you!" lol more like a crazed fan. Did you ask her any questions?

No cause I totally spazed out. I was the last person in line and had questions to ask, but we got distracted by my camera which has a grey dot on the screen that was one point a rainbow (weird screen issues). Then I won a paperback copy of Bloodlines so I told her how I already had the hardcover (which she signed) and I had just bought the Kindle version that day since it was on sale. She told me I could give the paperback away, but I said I might be too selfish to do that. lol So she signed that one for me too.

Awww awesome, give me that signed copy of bloodlines then lol! Did you bring any other books for her to sign? Lucky you worked your camera issues out.

Jeann wrote: "Awww awesome, give me that signed copy of bloodlines then lol! Did you bring any other books for her to sign? Lucky you worked your camera issues out."

Yeah I had her sign all three of the Bloodlines books. I already have all of the Vampire Academy books signed. Now I just need 5 of 6 Georgina books signed and 3 of 4 Dark Swan books signed.

That's so exciting, Paris. She actually remembered you from Twitter?!! *claps excitedly*

Yep! And then she tweeted me afterwards thanking me for coming. If I didn't already adore her and her books, I totally would now.

Yay Paris, that's exciting and awesome she remembered you too. I really enjoyed her books.

Paris wrote: "Yep! And then she tweeted me afterwards thanking me for coming."

Squeeeeee!!

Wow that's wonderful! Were there heaps of people there?

My book arrived yesterday so I'm ready to start when you guys are! Maybe in the next day or so?

It wasn't as crowded as some of her other signings have been, but I think most people went to the one she had in February which I couldn't go to because of work.

I can start whenever. I leave for Vegas on Thursday morning and I am no longer being distracted by the Lux series so I'll probably read this on the plane. Just might not be able to check in with y'all until I get back after Monday. I'm still going back and forth on taking my laptop with me.

Wowow Vegas! How exciting! Have heaps of fun there. Feel free to post your comments and I'll post when I catch up.

It's time for your Vegas trip already? Have fun!!

Yeah. I'm anxiously awaiting the butt crack of dawn on Thursday. Today was the longest work day ever.

Thanks!

Good luck getting everything done in time. I think the work week leading up to a vacation always feels agonizingly long.

I think you're right. It's ridiculous. And then of course tomorrow night I won't be able to fall asleep even though I'll be super tired.

Right. The excitement will keep you up. Plus, I can never sleep when I know I have to get up super early.

Yeah that usually is my issue too.

Guys, I totally wanted to start this today but last night when I was on the finishing home run for I fell asleep...on 92%, aggh! Time to adjust my reading in bed position...

I hate when that happens. I had to shift positions a few times last night while trying to finish

I know, I just add an extra pillow so my head is propped up but within a few minutes my eyes get droopy.

I was actually sitting on the couch. lol
