2024 Buddy Reads with Reading Beyond the Book Cover - Buddy Reads (Book Picks)

Starts: Thursday, 01 February 2024

Ends: Tuesday, 31 December 2024

Hello and Good Day!

Thank you to all who have participated in voting for our 2024 Buddy Reads with Reading Beyond the Book Cover Book Picks. Here are the final picks.

The current plan is to have options for private and public discussions. Either way, I want everyone to be comfortable.

The goal is to create space for discussion here via the readalong feature, and a LIVE discussion or stream that will post to YouTube. Links to the StoryGraph Readalong Forums will be included in the notes area of each Challenge Prompt.

Each challenge prompt will be the current month’s book pick. There’s no pressure to finish in that month, as the forums and other spaces online will be either be available for you all to chat until the end of 2024 in StoryGraph and indefinitely until said otherwise in the Discord group and private Facebook group.

If you plan to buddy read with us, get your books ready!
