Hi gali, just letting you know that I have to postpone reading this book due to a personal issue. So, it might be best for you to read another book for now and I will get back to you when I'm ready to resume the book "And Every Morning...".

@gali and @Gravy

I wanted to let you know that I requested an e-copy of Circe by Madeline Miller from my library. Apparently, I'm 33 in queue, so it might take a little time. I'll let you know when I'm closer to getting it and maybe we can hold a read-a-long once I have the book. :)

It sounds good. A pity it is just the first book in the trilogy. Do you know if it stands on its own? I dislike starting unfinished series, as they tend to end in a cliff-hanger.
Oh, I forget to include that trilogy bit. Hmm, flipped to the last pages and it looks like it can be a standalone. :D Annnnd, I know how it ends now, :lol:
I didn't mean to spoil it for you. Do you still want to read it?

If you do, I can start it after I finish my current book or whenever you want.
I can start the book in a couple of days once I finish my current book. if you still want to read it together, I will let you know once I am ready to start it. :tiphat:

Sounds good! I'll keep you two updated. :)

Says about 7 weeks, but hopefully it'll be quicker than that!

Ms Vinkel wrote: 07 Mar 2020, 00:04 Hello! :tiphat:

Anyone interested in reading Blood Heir by Amelie Wen Zhao with me? :techie-studyingbrown: It's a good fit for this month's genre, falls under fantasy. It has 42 chapters starring a princess, who is falsely accused of murdering her father, trying to clear her name with the help of a conman while also preventing others from finding her dangerous magic.
@Ms Vinkel I finished my current book. Do you want to start Blood Heir or have you started it already?
