It’s time to sign up for COYER again! Obviously Michelle and I are in, seeing as we’re hosting it (Along with Stephanie from Once Upon a Chapter this time). But here’s our official goal post! If you missed the details, go sign up now!
Michelle’s Goals
Since I am sucking big time as a human, I am going to do just regular strict COYER. Sorry I wont be able to buddy read, however I do plan to do all the readathons. I am hoping COYER will kick me back into the reading mood I deserve 🙂
I had a hard time picking what to recommend because I had two books in mind. However, I figured I would pick one and if you really wanted to know the other one, while it wont count, you can totally ask and I will tell you, maybe read it for a readathon.
My recommend book is LifeL1k3 by Jay Kristoff. I LOVED this book and currently have the second one that I plan to read before the end of the year. I am trying to see if I can get it to fit in the Rats and I think I might know exactly which one to fit it into. 🙂
Berls Goals
So my plan is to mainly do normal COYER But I’m setting up a few buddy reads and I’m going to go through all the sign up posts next week to see about finding about 5 book recommendations to read. I’m really excited about the Friends elements this time, for sure. I will also try to do the readathons, though I tend to suck at reading on demand (at least in the past year or so). I did pretty well with the #HoHoHoRAT though, so maybe!
I struggled picking a book to recommend – do I go with my all time favorite or a lesser known, recent read? I decided to go recent because I figure, if you’re going to read Pride and Prejudice you’ve probably already read it, right? I mean it’s a classic and required reading for so many of us in school anyway. So my recommendation is, one of my favorite, lesser-known urban fantasy authors, Diana Pharaoh Francis’s Bitter Night. It’s book 1 of a 4 book series. She’s a great author and I think more people need to be exposed to her talent.
Michelle & Berls are ready for #COYER with friends. Are you? Share on X
Good luck with COYER dudes!! 🙂
Thanks, Greg! 🙂
Yay, Christmas themed blog page.
I love Lifel1ke. cool pick and I’ll be doing strict COYER with you though Anne graciously asked me to do one buddy read so there will be a bit of that. 🙂
Wishing you both well on the challenge.
I think a good mix is perfect. If I can do one I would be ok with it but I think I will try and just do the Rats and Reg COYER
I love the new header! I’m just planning to do my one-sheet plan for COYER today to write in the RAT and buddy reads I have planned. I am doing buddy reads with Berls, Linda (Lexxie) and Sophia Rose. I’d do more but I think one a month is all I can handle. I’m excited to get started.
Thank you! I couldn’t wait to put it up.
I need to write out my calendar for what I am doing, i am not buddy reading but I can’t wait to see what you all read together.
