November Group Read: Kick Off Post

[glinda]

It’s November the 1st! Ready, steady - read!



In exciting news we’ve got lots of new participants this year - thank you to everyone to promoted it to their reading lists! - so just a couple of brief housekeeping notes. Check-ins will be every Friday, with a final sneaky wee extra check-in/round up post on the 30th to share the joy/commiserate! Don’t worry if you forget to check in, there’s no penalty, commenting late or checking in for two weeks at the same time is perfectly fine! Also some people find making a list at the start and sharing it helps with accountability, so if that’s something you’re into then feel free to use the comments on this post for that.

And most importantly: have fun!

I'm not at home, so digital only for me.

Current candidates:
The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern
A Memory Called Empire by Arkady Martine
The True Queen by Zen Cho
Because Internet by Gretchen McCulloch
The Future of Another Timeline by Annalee Newitz
+ a couple of the new Ms Marvel trades and some team comics Kamala's been in.

I hope you enjoy your November reads. I read A Memory calledEmpire and found it interesting not too long ago. A Starless Sea is on my wish list for when I’m further down the TBR pile.

Good to know! Fingers crossed for Starless Sea :)

Yay Kamala! Did you read G. Willow Wilson's run? I really liked that one.

[goodbyebird]

Oh yes, I read that as it came out. Really loved it. But as it usually is when a run completes, I drop out. Saladin is a great writer though, I've enjoyed loads of his stuff, so high expectations.

Just recently played the new Avengers game, and they did real good by Kamala! Now I'm thirsty for more of her adventures hehe.

I heard her story in that game was really good! (I suck at gaming, I have no hand-to-eye control)

Ooh, that is a lovely list. The top three are ones I've read and I absolutely adore all of them.

Oh yay, that's great to hear :D
