Hello all THWTRD members!
I wanted to break in the new board with a challenge, a book challenge that is. Just to give everyone sometime to get acclimated we will start the challenge in July. Tell us how many books you would like to read for the month of July. We can discuss the process and how we are enjoying the books.
I want to read four books in July. I haven't decided which, I have to go through my "To Be Read" pile first. I'll post them here once I decided which books I want to read.

I pledged 24 books this year on Goodreads, so I need to get through two each month. I was way ahead of my pace until last month and now I've fallen to being right on track. I'm starting it now, but I'm still counting it for July, so my first book will be Bloodline, the newest Star Wars novel.

Unless I finish Bloodline in the next week, probably three. But I might finish it, it's soooooooo good so far.

I hadn't read any until Episode VII came out, since Disney said the old books weren't canon and restarted the new canon with new books, so I jumped in at the right time! Some of them are really good and some of them are really...not

I will join this challenge! I used to read a book a week, but lately I've been all internet/all the time, and it has to stop. I'll choose my books.

I'm halfway through The Dragon's Path by Daniel Abraham, its quite good.
I think I will join the challenge, but my reading varies. If I really love a book I can demolish a book in a few days, if a like a book, might take a few weeks. Think I read all the ASOIAF books in a month when I first read them hehe.
I will go for 2.5 books.
The Dragon's Path by Daniel Abraham The King's Blood by Daniel Abraham Golden Age by James Maxwell
Any of you guys write?

I got the Eragon book set for Christmas a few years ago, I think it's collectively the Inheritance Cycle, and I've always wanted to read them. I don't like to commit to things, so I'm on the fence if I want to do this July Book Challenge.

I think I'm going to have to lower my goal to 2.5 as well. I didn't realize How much project I was going to get at work. Oh well. I do write, essays mostly. I'm trying to work on this story so I'm hoping to do NaNoWriMo this year. I got the Eragon book set for Christmas a few years ago, I think it's collectively the Inheritance Cycle, and I've always wanted to read them. I don't like to commit to things, so I'm on the fence if I want to do this July Book Challenge. Just one book, you can totally do it.
