North Liberty Readers discussion

Proposed Reading Schedule:

Here is my proposal. It's 41 weeks, and it is a pretty happy medium between trying to stay close to 35 pages per week and ending approx. every other week at the end of a chapter. Any thoughts?

I just found a plot summary and analysis website for this book. I've just glanced at it, but it might be helpful to refer to if we need a refresher as we go along. Here is the link.

Looks good! Thanks for taking the time to do this!

No problem. And I'll get the book to Sammi and Pam by the weekend. They'll have it on Saturday or Monday depending on if I get it out early enough today.

Hey all, I'm planning to get the week one reading done by Saturday since I'll have plenty of car time this weekend. Are you all up for starting it this week? I can hold off, but I need to figure out what I'm reading this weekend. An away swim meet AND I'm NOT officiating! So. Much. Free. Time!

I'm on 1.15 right now. I find that I have pretty much forgotten all of the detail from the 220ish pages that I read back in 2012.

I'm trying!!! I'm on 1.5 right now. I'll catch up!

You've got this! We can always adjust if needed and back off for a week or two. I needed to make the calendar for me to keep myself motivated. :)

The motivation is good for me too! I just got behind already... :( I'll work on it tonight!!

I just finished 1.16 tonight. That was a boring section. I'm going to reward myself with the first Jon Snow chapter in A Dance with Dragons. :)

Made it to 1.10 last night! I'm getting there!

Nice!

I made it to 1.19! Feeling accomplished. lol

I can't wait to read a dance with dragons! it's on my list!

How is everyone. doing with this book? I am loving it!

Did not start yet !!

I''m back up to about page 220. I'm a bit behind schedule, but I'll catch up. This weekend is my last bad weekend for swimming until the first weekend in May. (Unless I work Sectionals... they are in Iowa City and I'm getting serious pressure to work it, but I want a break from it.)

Sammi, where are you at on A Suitable Boy?

I'm ready to start section 6. page 310

Do you guys like the book? I get it in two weeks, can't wait to start

Herma, I can give you the book in English... just let me know? It's a pretty good book.

I'm still on 1.10... I'll pick it up again and hopefully catch up!

Sounds good! I should have a good four hours of reading time this weekend, so I'm hoping to get caught up to Sammi. It's a good book, I've just been so busy with swim team that if it isn't an audio book, I haven't been able to make much progress. :(

Thanks again Jenni, but i think Isabella bought it for me! Have a nice Reading weekend ( if you have time) everyone

I made it to 1.18! I'm almost to the end of January!

YAY! Sammi, where are you at now? I'll have lots of reading time this weekend, I'd like to catch up to you... and get back on track. WOOT!

Great! I started yesterday, on page 24 pffff. How do you guys like it till this far?

I made it to 3.3! I'm half way through February (at the end of March...)!

I've made it to 5.7! I feel like I'm making ok progress, but still have some catching up to do...

NICE! Sonja, that's about where I'm at too. :) We ROCK! And Sammi's a major rock star!

I'm on 6.12. If I'm counting right, I'm starting week 12's reading during week 12!

I just finished part 8. I go really strong on it for awhile and then it's awhile before I get back to it. I am loving it though!

I'm on 6! We're getting there! IT is a great book, it's just that I feel like I have to be able to sit and read it for awhile at a time. No small doses wit this book.

I'm around 6.15 (I think...). It's been a couple of weeks since I've read anything! Now that tax day has come and gone, I think I have time to read it again.

I made it to 7.2! I read a different book this weekend and now I'm back to this. Somehow it doesn't seem as daunting now that I'm more than 25% done...

I just finished part 10. I'm halfway through it!!!! woo hoo!

That's awesome, Sammi!! I'm on 7.26... Almost back on schedule!

It's all downhill now! I wish I could find more time to read!

I just finished part 13. The closer to the end I get the harder it is to put down. I have 2 weeks left in South Dakota and am hoping to finish it during this time!!!!!

You're flying through it! I'm on 8.6...

The closer I get to the end the harder it gets to put it down. I think I have it figured out who Lata will be with then something happens to change my mind! I am loving this book! Starting part 17.

I'm done! Wow what a great book! Can't wait to hear what everyone else thinks.

That didn't take long!!! I need to find more time to read!

According to the schedule from the beginning of the year, we were supposed to finish this book at the end of October. I think I'm going to finish it early (despite putting it down for a few months)!

Nice! You're WAAAAAY ahead! I put it down, but you've inspired me to pick it back up.

Ready to start section 15.19.

So, I just looked at my calendar, and week 33 (which includes section 15.19) was Aug. 30-Sept. 5, so technically, I'm still behind! However, I've been reading 2-3 sections/night, so I think I can still finish early!

Ohhh I'm way behind. I need to find some time to just sit and read. Maybe on the airplane to Orlando on the 27th!

Stopped in the middle of 16.3 last night. I figure if I keep putting my progress on here, it'll keep me reading every night so that I can update this...

I'm partially through section 17.6. That means I'm up to this week on the schedule!

Nice! I'm going to get there!

Not much reading last night... I made it to 17.9.
