I ordered a copy of this recently so I can do a read-a-long with my son who is currently stationed in Hawaii. He chose the book so I am interested to see if we both enjoy it. Does anyone else do read-a-longs with friends or family aside from book clubs? #readalong

TrishB Sometimes, but I read really fast, so its usually me finishing it and waiting for others to catch up and discuss! 8y
bookishbitch @TrishB I am like that too for book clubs. When I do a read-a-long we decide where to stop along the way. That way nothing gets spoiled when you chat about the story so far. 8y
