dabbe's blurb on Dissolution

Dissolution: A Shardlake Novel | C. J. Sansom

#ShardlakeSeriesBR

Hi, everyone. I've begun putting together a buddy read for C.J. Sansom's Shardlake series (he passed away in April). There are 7 novels with an average page count of 660. 😳 I need some input. Does reading a book a month seem feasible? Or every 2 months? Or any other ideas? I'd like to keep this as low-key as possible with a Q&A session at the end of the month(s). Thoughts?
Tagging those who were interested; all are welcome! 😀

kwmg40 Every two months sounds good to me. I sometimes have trouble keeping up with monthly buddy reads, especially if the books are longer ones. 11mo

bthegood @kwmg40 @dabbe agree😊 11mo

RaeLovesToRead I'm in. Love Shardlake series 💙 11mo

Mollyanna I‘m in and I‘m with @kwmg40 every other month would be perfect. I‘ve always wanted to read this series and own at least the first two. 11mo

lil1inblue @kwmg40 I agree. I'm afraid I would fall behind quite quickly if it was a book a month. 11mo

The_Book_Ninja I started book 1. I doubt if I‘ll read it in a month. But I‘ll do my best 11mo

Librarybelle I think every two months is best! 11mo

LiseWorks It depends on how I get it but, if it's the library and I can't renew it I'll have to read it in 21 days, if it's kindle, it's at my leisure. But let's do every 2 months. Just in case there is a wait list at the library.. I love new series. 11mo

Deblovestoread Every two months sounds good to me. 11mo

Daisey This is tempting. I‘ve read the part of this series and truly enjoyed it, but I‘ve never finished it. I think I can fit in another book every two months. Please add me to this list as well! 11mo

Now, what should we call ourselves? The Shardlakes? (sounds like a 60s dance band! 😂)

One book every two months. Thanks, everyone. I'll post the schedule soon! 🤍🌹🤍 (hope you can see the emojis!) 11mo

kwmg40 @dabbe Great, thanks for getting this set up! As for a name, how about The Dissolute Readers, as a nod to the first book? 😂 11mo

OutsmartYourShelf First I‘ve seen of this. I have some of the books just sitting on the shelf so why not - @dabbe add me to the list or whatever please. 11mo

Karisimo I would like to join! 11mo

jenniferw88 2 months sounds good to me (as I've committed to a Ducks, Newburyport buddy read, too, forgetting that I've signed up for this!) 11mo
