New: Upcoming Read-Along of Scott Lynch's Republic of Thieves

Scott Lynch's long-awaited third novel, Republic of Thieves, came out yesterday, and I think that a read-along is a terrific way to greet it!  If you recall, I (and many other people) participated in a group reading of The Lies of Locke Lamora and Red Seas Under Red Skies.  This time, I'm going to be one of the five co-hosts of the group reading of Republic of Thieves, along with Little Red ReviewerOver the Effing RainbowDab of Darkness, and Lynn's Book Blog.  

The read-along will begin on October 28th, so there's plenty of time to get a copy of the novel and join in!  If you're interested in receiving an email of the discussion questions each week, then you can sign up here or at any of the blogs linked above.  The discussion of each section will kick off with blog posts each Monday, and the tentative schedule is:

  • Week 1: Prologue through Intersect 1, hosted by Dab of Darkness
    • Questions will go out on Oct. 25th, and discussion posts will go up on Oct. 28th
  • Week 2: Chapter 3 through the Interlude "Bastards Abroad", hosted by Over the Effing Rainbow
    • Questions will go out on Nov. 1st, and discussion posts will go up on Nov. 4th
  • Week 3: Chapter 6 through the Interlude "Aurin and Amadine", hosted by Lynn's Book Blog
    • Questions will go out on Nov. 8th, and discussion posts will go up on Nov. 11th
  • Week 4: Chapter 8 through Chapter 10, hosted by Little Red Reviewer
    • Questions will go out on Nov. 15th, and discussion posts will go up on Nov. 18th
  • Week 5: The Interlude "Death Masks" through the Epilogue, hosted by me!
    • Questions will go out on Nov. 22nd, and discussion posts will go up on Nov. 25th
I am really excited to finally be able to get my hands on the next book in the series, and I'm looking forward to discussing the novel with everyone!
