So excited! Lets gooooo

First time doing the challenge, recently found IRCB and the community. I needed more folks to talk comics with so here I am. I'm 2 books in 3 if you count the one I'd already read. Started out rough for me with Hearbeat but God and Science: Return of the Ti-Girls was a good pallet cleanser I enjoyed that one. Since I've only read 1 book on the list prior (We only find them when they're dead) I'm really looking forward to discovering some new books and maybe a new favorite.

Hi Jason, welcome to the group! Our "what are you reading this month" threads tend to be the most active so may be a good place to start (or come hang out with us on Discord)!

Excited to hear what you think of the books - I always have a great time doing the challenge. :)

Hey! This week's episode is all about the Reading Challenge! Check out why Kara, Rene, and I picked the books we did for the challenge and our thoughts on the books we've read so far.
