I was supposed to buddy read three different books and all of my buddies backed out. I'm sitting here not sure what to read :( I was so ready for House of Leaves too.
Maybe it's time to finally pick up Absolution by Jeff Vandemeer
They didn't like the books? Or just not big readers?
It was a mix of things really. One had her grandma unexpectedly pass, one found out they were pregnant, the third did just decide they didn't like the book (who doesn't like Lord of the Rings though?)
I still might get two of them eventually back but no idea when.
Ah, life happened. Nothing can be done about that.
