Heylo!

Are you guys interested in signing up for the August Reading challenge? Ignore if you've already been tagged and have declined.

Hey! Thanks for the tag. I so wish to participate but August looks like a busy month for me to get time to read. So, I'll stay out.

I have been travelling and have been unwell too, I’ll try and get the buddies paired up today.

If you have any preferences among the ones that have signed up for Buddy Reads let me know. Indicate your top 2 choices and I’ll try my best to pair you up based on that but no guarantees. Also let me know what genres you mostly prefer to read and if you have any triggers

Take care Lizzie! smiley31

Genres: Historical Fiction (eg. Ken Follett, Khaled Hosseini), Social Fiction (eg. Sunil Ganguly, Ashapoorna Devi), Literary Commentaries (eg. N. P. Bhaduri, S. Bhattacharji)...also I am planning to start reading Mr. Debroy's translation of Ramayana on my own time, so if anyone wants to hop on that too! smiley27

(^^P.S. These authors I've already read, just noting them as examples smiley43).

I'd be open to other genres too, just no Colleen Hoover please. I've heard a lot of stuff about it being ingenuous, so I am kinda unsure of it (but then I read a biography on Mandodari, where 'Mandodari' was misspelled thrice so I like to think I've built up immunity to most stuff smiley36).

What genres do you usually read? Do you have any triggers? Do you want to be paired with someone specific? How many books are you signing up for?
