Though a little late, what genre do you think we should read for the remainder of this month? :techie-studyingbrown:

Absolutely! Life gets in the way sometimes :doh:

I would say murder is a crime, so murder mysteries definitely counts. :)

Looks like we're reading Crime/Thriller for this month! I have a book I started that I think would be great for this one!

Thank you!

I'm reading The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides, and I'm really enjoying it so far. :techie-studyingbrown:

Nice! I'm about halfway through now, and I want to keep reading more! The chapters are super short, which I like, too.

@gali, did you want to try to do a read-a-long with The Silent Patient? I promise I'll be better than the last two read-a-longs... :oops:

True, but I was thinking since you are a faster reader, you would probably catch up pretty quickly to where I am. :D

We can also just wait until the next book, if you'd like. :)

I will finish my current book and start this one in a couple of days. :)

@hsimone have you finished the book? I started it. If you still read it, I will open a thread for it.
