Have you read the other 2 in the trilogy? I am already looking forward to reading the second trilogy with everyone lol.

Yep and the new ones. The first one was in a category of its own in terms of world building and themes.

Fun fact:

I have the second book on Kindle, but not the first.  I looked for it on Libby, and found it!!!! Somebody else had it, but it would be available soon.

And lo!!! It was....a week ago. So I opted to have someone borrow it before me, and hopefully I should get it by the sixth of July!

Still unsure whether I'll have time for this, but will try my best not to get too far behind!

I'm so excited for this! I've wanted to read them for a really long time now. It should be fun to discuss as a group, too!

I’m busy, but going to make time for this one. Never having read this puts a big hole in my reader status.

How do you join this book club? Or do you just read along with the schedule?

u/firejoule Jun 21 '25

Will be joining. I don't have that much expectations for this book, as this was advertised in our place as a movie generally. Looking forward to enjoying it.

I just got it on Kindle.
