2025 Reading Challenge discussion

This thread is to discuss Pines by Blake Crouch, the first book in the Wayward Pines series.

Pages: 303 pages

Length: 1 Month (October)

Participants: D.L., Saha, Chantal.

Everyone reads at their own pace during a Buddy Read. Because participants can be at different parts of the book at different times, it is extremely important to mark spoilers so that the book is not ruined for someone who is not as far along as others!!!

Mark spoilers by placing {spoiler} before the text and {/spoiler} after the text but use the < and > instead of the { and }.


Happy Buddy Reading!

A few days back I got my book from the library!

I am excited for this one!!

I hope to start tomorrow.

I have to say this was a very easy book to read.

I will start this tomorrow :)

I finally got to start reading this, later than I planned, but better late than never, right? lol I am at 14% but it's a fast read so I expect to finish really fast. It has quite a mystery to it. I am so intrigued.

(view spoiler)[What's going on with Ethan & what happened to the 2 missing agents?! This town is so creepy! (hide spoiler)]

I am at 38% now.

(view spoiler)[This is getting good. It's quite a page-turner. Kate being old now threw me for a major loop. As did Ethan and his wife apparently being months apart in time. What's going on? I can't wait to find out. (hide spoiler)]

67%

(view spoiler)[They killed Beverly! Noooooooo! So sad!! (hide spoiler)]

I finished it. WOW. That's the first word that comes to mind.

I can't wait to read book 2! I'd love to hear your thoughts on this particular book :)
