Over Christmas we are looking to do a number of different Buddy Reads, starting on different dates over a two week period.

Feel free to join any ones that you want to, or all of them if you want to. You can read them at your own pace.

#BuddyReadathon #ChristmasBuddyReads
All welcome. The start dates are on the books.

Tove_Reads It feels like we‘re reading 🥶 books, and then we‘re taking the Southern Hemisphere into account with Summer Island 😁 2y

Andrew65 @Tove_Reads 🤣🤣🤣 Hopefully something for everyone. 2y

eanderson I‘m in for the Christmas Killer and Snowdonia! I‘m excited! 2y

Andrew65 @eanderson Great 😍 2y

PageShifter Yes! I wasn‘t first sure if I would read Pig Island but I was intrigued and I put it on hold. But there seems to be some problem with my copy: status went ‘in reparation‘ after I put it on hold so it doesn‘t look too good with it now. 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 I got them all marked on my calendar ready to go! 2y

Andrew65 @EadieB Great, hope you are well. 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 I had a sinus infection but getting over it now. 2y

Andrew65 @EadieB Good to hear you are getting over it, had a few of the same issues too. 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 At least it was not Covid. 2y

Andrew65 @EadieB That is a big plus. One week of school to go and my job about to be advertised, ready for me leaving at Easter. (edited) 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 That great news! 2y

Crazeedi @Andrew65 not sure how many I will be able to do. Thanks for tag, I'll see what I can find and if I can work them in! I hope you are well 2y

Crazeedi @EadieB sorry to hear you weren't feeling well! ❤❤ 2y

EadieB @Crazeedi Thanks! These are on sale for the kindle on Amazon - The Christmas Killer (.99) and Snowdonia (2.99). 2y

andrew61 Great idea Andrew, I can't promise that I will join in but pig Island is from memory exceptionally weird and reminds me what a great author mo hayder is and what a loss to writing . If I can find one of the others in the library I'll try and hop on. 2y

Andrew65 @Crazeedi Feel free to join any 😍 2y

Andrew65 @andrew61 Loved her Jack Caffery series. She was a great talent and a great loss. 2y

Gissy I will see how many I can read because I don‘t have the books and I use to read with physical books. Let‘s see if they arrive on time, 2y

Crazeedi @EadieB thanks Eadie!! 2y

Andrew65 @Tove_Reads Still one I haven‘t read. 2y

Tove_Reads Any Coben‘s you haven‘t read? 2y

Tove_Reads Death by the Thames by Greta Mulrooney is read now on NG 2y

Tove_Reads Nicci French? 2y

Tove_Reads Been meaning to read The Snowdonia killings, but it‘s not a standalone 2y

PageShifter I am always down for BRs! I actually read everything so I am eager to read whatever others want to read. But best would be something wintery now 😏 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 How about this one which is .99 for Kindle on Amazon:

The Christmas Killer

Andrew65 C L Taylor has written a lot of standalones but not ready any. 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 I've read this one by C. L. Taylor:

Before I Wake

Andrew65 @EadieB Did you enjoy it? 2y

Andrew65 Happy to read

The Snowdonia Killings

EadieB @Andrew65 I've read Don't Let Go by Coben. 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 The Snowdonia Killings does look good. @Tove_Reads (edited) 2y

Andrew65 How about some Mo Hayder?

Pig Island

Andrew65

Tokyo

EadieB @Andrew65 Yes gave Before I Wake 4 stars. 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 I're read this one which I think is the same book as Tokyo:

The Devil of Nanking: A Novel

EadieB @Andrew65 I've read this one too:

Christmas Train

Andrew65 @EadieB It as the same as Tokyo, why do they give different books the same titles! What about Pig Island then, if you can get it. (edited) 2y

Andrew65 The Snowdonia Killings looks like one goer. 2y

Andrew65

Winter Garden

EadieB @Andrew65 Loved

Winter Garden

Andrew65 @EadieB I really need to read more by her. 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 I've read 9 of her books. They are all pretty good. 2y

Andrew65 @EadieB Only the one we read together for me. 2y

Tove_Reads So, Snowdonia is a go then? @EadieB @Andrew65 2y

Tove_Reads Did we ever end up reading

The Tea House on Mulberry Street

Tove_Reads Or how about historical fiction? Any suggestions? 2y

Tove_Reads Haven‘t read The Christmas Killer @EadieB @Andrew65 2y

Tove_Reads Works for me

Stay Close

EadieB @Tove_Reads I just found some books by Mick Finlay

Arrowood (Original)

Andrew65 Many years ago read the first book in the Matthew Hawkwood series which really enjoyed. Happy to read it again as want to continue series and forgotten it. Set in early day of Bow Street Runners.

Ratcatcher

Gissy Yes! Let‘s what are the recommendations!🤗 2y

Crazeedi @EadieB @Andrew65 all Hannah's books are worth reading. Her early ones might even be better than her later ones 2y

Andrew65 @Crazeedi Thanks fir the recommendation 😊 2y

Crazeedi @Andrew65 if you come up with what you're doing let me know I might be able to join, not sure but hopefully 2y

Andrew65 @Crazeedi Will do. 2y

Clwojick I might be interested, depending on what book is chosen! 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 I have a copy of

Pig Island

EadieB @Crazeedi @Andrew65 The Hannah books that I own that I haven‘t read are: Summer Island, Distant Shores, True Colors, Home Again and On Mystic Lake. 2y

Andrew65 @Tove_Reads Are you able to get hold of Pig Island and do you have any of Hannah book‘s in @EadieB ‘s post above. Other options at the moment seem Stay Close by Harlan Coben and either The Snowdonia Klingon and The Christmas Killer. 2y

Crazeedi @EadieB @Andrew65 I'll have to look at my goodreads to see what hannah books over read 2y

Tove_Reads Happy to read all four of them. I will most definitely read Stay Close and Snowdonia in any case. I can get hold of all Hannah books. In fact, I could read the four + one Hannah book, so just tell me which will be buddy reads 🙂 2y

Andrew65 @eadieb @Clwojick @Tove_Reads @Crazeedi @Gissy @PageShifter So the book choices are :

1. Stay Close by Harlan Coben
2. The Christmas Killer by Alex Pine
3. The Snowdonia Killings by Simon McCleave
4. Pig Island by Mo Hayder
5. A Kristin Hannah Book
2y

Andrew65 Let me know who would be interested in what book and we can set those ones up. 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 I would like to read

Summer Island

Andrew65 @EadieB Works for me. 2y

EadieB @Andrew65 Ok great! 2y

Crazeedi @Andrew65 @EadieB from reading the blurb I dont remember reading that one 2y

Crazeedi @Andrew65 so I'm good for it!! 2y

EadieB @Crazeedi I checked on Goodreads and you didn‘t have it marked as read. 2y

Crazeedi @EadieB you're way ahead of me!! Lol 2y

PageShifter I want to read at least The Christmas Killer & The Snowdonia Killings. But I have those three others on hold now as well in case I can't resist 2y

Tove_Reads I‘ll read all five, but mostly interested in Stay Close and Snowdonia. 2y

Tove_Reads Will @eanderson @Butterfinger @gradcat @AnneCecilie join? 2y

eanderson @Tove_Reads I‘m definitely interested! I‘ve had the Snowdonia Killings on my kindle for a long time! 2y

Clwojick I‘m going to try to get my hands on a copy of The Christmas Killer. Hopefully my library will get it in. 2y
