Welcome to October Buddy Picks

If you wish to have a buddy choose a book from your SBC bookshelf, please comment below with the amount of books you wish to have picked out for you.

I will pair you with your Buddy using Random.org on September 30 if enough have signed up by then.

Rules-ish:
You will need to create a shelf titled Stitchers Book Club TBR or SBC TBR on Goodreads. Put books on it that you can read in October.

Happy Reading!

Tracey Allen at Carpe Librum (carpelibrum) | 1222 comments Hi Sharon, there was a time when I kept up with every new release from Dean Koontz, so I've chosen By the Light of the Moon by Dean Koontz for your buddy pick this month. Hope you enjoy it!

Sorry for the delay. My husband had surgery yesterday and the day before I was trying to prep for that.

I think Chai Time at Cinnamon Gardens sounds like a nice read!

I hope you're enjoying it Bonnie! It is definitely looooong! One of the longest audiobooks I've listened too I think

Unfortunately I had to DNF this one, the stories were too weird for me!

Oh no, sorry to hear that Sharon, but at least it's off your TBR pile now! And you know what? I had the same experience with my buddy pick this month too 😬

Tracey Allen at Carpe Librum (carpelibrum) | 1222 comments Thanks for choosing Chai Time at Cinnamon Gardens for me Eden, after 30 pages it just wasn't for me so I'm going to DNF it and move on. Would someone like to pick another one for me? 😃

Finally finished Stephen king Fairytale. Took me like 2-3 months to finish it 🤣


message 27: by Tracey Allen (new)

Tracey Allen at Carpe Librum (carpelibrum) | 1222 comments I’ve started Psykhe and I’m loving it so far! Glad you enjoyed Fairy Tale Sharon, I loved it up until he discovered what was in the shed.

Tracey Allen at Carpe Librum (carpelibrum) | 1222 comments Hi Jenny, how did you go this month? And hope your husband is recovering well Eden 🤞

I'm loving my (second) buddy pick and should finish it soon. Can we sign up for November?


message 30: by Tracey Allen (new)

Tracey Allen at Carpe Librum (carpelibrum) | 1222 comments I finished reading my second buddy pick before the end of the month, woohoo! 🙌

Tracey I am not a fan of the ending at all. Enjoyed the captive bit. The first 3rd of the book was amazing. I think the narrator made the whole story better. If I was reading the physical book might have put it down
