Wise Cat (wisecat) | 24 comments I was actually looking for a place to post this but I don't know where. I'm starting City of Bones by Cassandra Clare, #1 in the Mortal Instruments series.

I wanted to see if anyone wants to read it with me. If so, a separate thread could be started. It's over 400 pages, a lot longer than most YA books I read (300 - 350 pages). So I'll be reading it awhile.

I know the Stephen King fans group has a Buddy Read forum, but I can't find a general forum for it. I thought there was one but can't find it. Hence, I posted my question in the feedback group too.

I'm planning to read. And by 'read', I mean reading excessively. Well, that's what summer for, right?
And this time, I'm really planning to read with someone who has similar tastes to mine.

Well, I read much too!! I read non-stop. Today, I finished two books, I started 2 days ago. Still, I have 2 books in my current read. But I'm used to reading several books at a time.
Well, I have many books in mind.
Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, #1) by Marissa Meyer The 100 (The 100, #1) by Kass Morgan Caraval (Caraval, #1) by Stephanie Garber The Cruel Prince (The Folk of the Air, #1) by Holly Black The Raven Boys (The Raven Cycle, #1) by Maggie Stiefvater
And few more I don't remember right now.
Yes, I've read Red Queen (Red Queen, #1) by Victoria Aveyard . But I haven't read it's sequels. But I was planning to reread Red Queen anyways. So, if you want we could read the whole series?

Have you read any of the Grishaverse books? They’re part of my TBR list for 2019.

Both. I haven’t read either, and this was the year I was planning on getting through a few of the series I’ve been procrastinating on.
