MM Everyone,

I know that it has been spoken about in the past, but Laila and I were wondering what do you all think about a read along and discussion type thing held in the chat room? Everyone reads a chapter at a time (say over a month) and then has a discussion about it in chat! sounds like fun to me!!

There are few options in the poll but if you have any other suggestions please add them on, all help grately received. The E Books suggested were very kindly passed onto Laila by Carra and are for everyone to share!

Anyhoo, let us know what you think!!

blessings

I voted for the God of The Witches, simply because I own the book in real time.. I very much prefer to hold the book I'm reading - something in the sensory experience of holding a book that aids the reading!

I prefer holding the books too Haitsu, but i'm sure you will agree this is the easiest option for getting as many folks as poss access to the books. :)

Ok I'll maybe leave to poll up for another few days, and see if anyone else votes. We can read all of the books, no problem! but i think we should begin with the most votes, is that fair?

I'd be up for that! Sounds like fun and a good time frame for those that have busy lives.

Great idea!

I'm looking forward to it to. I never get to talk about the books I read with people so it would be nice to discuss it.
