**Feel free to post any books you're looking to read soon and see if anyone is interested in reading it with you!**

Anyone want to read books together? I made myself a "To Read Soon" shelf so I could easily keep track of what I actually want to/need to read in the near future. Anyone interested in reading any of them with me?

Here's my shelf!

Feb 17 sounds great! I'm #42 of 10 copies on the e-library but my local library has it available! I'm going to snatch it tomorrow just in case! :)

Hi, I would love to read A Prayer for Owen Meany together. That has been on my list for ages! Also, I just got To All the Boys I've Loved Before. Once I finish that I can request P.S. I Still Love You.

I'm #7 of 1 copy on Overdrive for P.S. I Still Love You. So +-14 weeks. lol. My local library does not have it. But the Keene Library does! So let me know when you can start it. :)

And I'm #3 of 2 copies for Owen Meany so that'll be soon! I wanted to get to it last year but it didn't end up happening.

The library had the audio of To All the Boys I've Loved Before and I have an online copy of the book so I decided to re-read since it's been 4 years since I read it. Halfway through now!

Rachel Joy Hi Elyse,
I own My Lady Jane and have been thinking it would be nice to read it with someone. I can read it now or later sometime, not in any hurry in case you are in the midst of other books at the moment. Anyway, would love to read it with you whenever you would like ;).
Thanks, Rach

Joanne, I just put the audio book the shape of water on hold. MY library system does not have a book or an audio book(!!!), so I did an extended search and found an audio book in my state. I cannot see how many people are in line for it in front of me (yet). I hope to read it by early or mid April. Look forward to doing a buddy read with you. Did you see the movie yet? ~Carol

You just enter your email address on the website and every Thursday starting 4/26 they send you an email telling you what 2 audiobooks are available, then you click the link, enter your name and email address, and download them. You can also go through the whole program on the site and see what's going to be available ahead of time. It's usually an educational audiobook and then a fiction one that's sort of relatable to the educational one. It's fabulous!

Oh and the best thing is once you download them, you have them forever or until you delete them! I'm still getting through last year's. lol. I *was* going to be done by 4/26 but now that I found the other 12...not so much. haha
