Hi Tim, welcome back to the ROOTers.

Welcome back and have a great reading year!

Welcome back!

Good luck with your 2024 goal!

Happy reading!

Finished: The Book That Wouldn't Burn by Mark Lawrence 560pp (hardcover)

Good job, Tim. This book is one of our RL-bookclub read for this year.

Hi I've just joined your group. I have separate lists for my yearly TBR's. I only have 2 leftover from 2022 but I have 183 for 2023. I'm a sucker for new releases though and am hoping that half of my 2024 reads will be from the 2022 ans 2023 stacks.

Hi Tim. I've read the book in >9 bumblesby: and loved is. I have part two on the shelves too and it will not be long before I will read it. I hear there is a book 3 too. But not yet available in the Netherlands. Patience, patience. Maybe on my list for buying in June.
