kungtotte Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 If you have dozens you should try getting some of them signed, maybe you can shift them on eBay or something and make some money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BlackBear Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 So during week one, we can mention anything that happens in the first hundred pages, or only after the first week? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crown Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 We got 46 chapters in The Blade Itself. Perhaps we can do two chapters a day, starting tomorrow? I got a schedule in the spoilertag, including chapter titles, but they don't contain any spoilers as far as I know.Explanation: the dates correspond with the chapters you read that day, the day after you'll be allowed to discuss them without spoilertags. Example: you read The End and The Survivors on Monday, and you can discuss them on Tuesday.Monday, January 7thThe EndThe SurvivorsTuesday, January 8thQuestionsNo Choice at AllWednesday, January 9thPlaying With KnivesTeeth and FingersThursday, January 10thThe Wide and Barren NorthFencing PracticeFriday, January 11thThe Morning RitualFirst of the MagiSaturday, January 12thThe Good ManOn The ListSunday, January 13thAn Offer and a GiftThe King of the NorthmenMonday, January 14thA Road Between Two DentistFlatheadsTuesday, January 15thThe Course of True LoveHow Dogs are TrainedWednesday, January 16thTea and VengeanceWhat Freedom Looks LikeThursday, January 17thThe King's JusticeMeans of EscapeFriday, January 18thThree SignsThe Theatrical Outfitter'sSaturday, January 19thBarbarians at the GateNextSunday, January 20thBetter than DeathSore ThumbMonday, January 21thQuestionsNobilityTuesday, January 22thDark WorkWords and DustWednesday, January 23thThe Remarkable Talents of Brother LongfootHer Kind Fight EverythingThursday, January 24thShe Loves Me . . .

a free shadow Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I suggest to be quicker. Who takes a month to read a book, if it is interesting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juli Greyjoy Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Do we have to have 2 chapters a day? I have exams for the next two weeks, and a few other people do to from what I've heard. I liked the idea of 100-150 pages a week better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crown Posted January 6, 2013 Author Share Posted January 6, 2013 I suggest to be quicker. Who takes a month to read a book, if it is interesting?I agree, I could manage up to four chapters (or more), just let me know what others think. Should we be quicker?Do we have to have 2 chapters a day? I have exams for the next two weeks, and a few other people do to from what I've heard. I liked the idea of 100-150 pages a week better.2 chapters a day equals about 150 pages a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamSongs Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Sounds amazing gang! But I am determined to finish Dreamsongs V1 and V2 before I start anything else. Joe Abercrombie's books sound good though! Are any of his stories in Warriors? That's the next thing I'm planning. I've been far away from short stories for far too long. I had forgotten the delights of reading anthologies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
