I read about 10 books a month--on average, so 3 designated books isn't really so many and I have been introduced to so many authors I never would have thought of. I can't think of much I like better than discussing books and book clubs and blogs like yours are about the only way.Annie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04988251466307015858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3891836148334813580.post-53944193271180920322018-05-02T13:57:35.828-07:002018-05-02T13:57:35.828-07:00Not misleading at all!

I am always a little hesitant about jumping into a series after the first book and will likely end up reading the other books first anyways for that reason. And wow that's a lot of book clubs! I'm just in the one at Sundance and I'm hesitant to get involved with any others because I don't want too much of my reading to be not my own choice. It is nice to go every month and get to actually talk about the books with a wide range of people!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16161977012468397219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3891836148334813580.post-26195381453910026692018-05-02T13:14:30.288-07:002018-05-02T13:14:30.288-07:00Sorry, I didn't mean to mislead you.

Barker always get high marks for her writing so I should move her up on the list. I belong to three book clubs and am considering a fourth, so those books are read first and then I read what I want each month.

Would it work without reading the first two or are the first two good enough that I should look for them and read them before Ghost Road? And I know re TBR disaster...so many books, so little time. Especially now that it's getting nice out again!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16161977012468397219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3891836148334813580.post-6560254052850981792018-05-02T09:01:12.386-07:002018-05-02T09:01:12.386-07:00Circe's definitely on my list, and I almost pi...Circe's definitely on my list, and I almost picked it for my Book of the Month Club choice last month!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16161977012468397219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3891836148334813580.post-69241772328879382112018-05-02T09:00:05.006-07:002018-05-02T09:00:05.006-07:00Thank you!

I'm glad it doesn't release until August because my TBR is a disaster.
