Princess 35 Posted July 21, 2011 I was just talking to someone and we came up with a great idea that should really stimulate some discussion. Since there aren't many new books coming out right now, it's time to re-read the EU. Anyone who wants to participate can sign up in this thread. The goal is to re-read the books in a specified order (I'll try to do it chronologically) and really get in depth about them besides just "I liked the book" or "I thought it is the SUXXORS!!!11!!1" Each book will have it's own thread and you can read at your own pace, but I'll try not to set the pace too fast. First book will be announced on Monday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Princess 35 Posted July 21, 2011 Okay, even though there's only 3 of us right now, I'm going to post the first book because it may take some people a little while to find it and dust it off, and may want to get started reading over the weekend, the first book is... ..... ... The Truce at Bakura Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jake Durron 23 Posted July 21, 2011 Rawr! *looks at crates of freshly packed books* Damn... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bad furday 57 Posted July 21, 2011 I remember that one! I think it's one of the few SW novels I have in hardcover. Guess I'll just have to sign up for this one ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy 60 Posted July 21, 2011 Interesting idea. Don't think I have that book, and I also have a massive list of things to do at the moment. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Radioactive Isotope 29 Posted July 21, 2011 I don't think I've ever read that one. *gasp* I need to finish Conviction first and then I'll try to get to TAB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandora 77 Posted July 21, 2011 Wow that is an oldie. I'm in. I'll be slow but if I can find it I will read it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ana 15 Posted July 21, 2011 (edited) Oh what the heck, I'm in! As long as there aren't punishments for, uh, falling behind occasionally. >_> Edited July 21, 2011 by Ana Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted July 21, 2011 Nope. The only reason that we're reading books in somewhat of an order is so that we can get real discussion going, but do it at your own pace. That's why I announced the book early. Gives people time and then we won't do the next one for at least a week, most likely 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUnknown 39 Posted July 21, 2011 I'll give it a whirl. Once class starts back and I'm having to read for three classes and teach two more, all bets are off. Hopefully, this'll give me an excuse to write some reviews on Epinions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jake Durron 23 Posted July 21, 2011 Haha I forgot to pull it out before I left. I suppose I shall have to buy a new one. Lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mara 29 Posted July 21, 2011 (edited) Depending on how long you give us to read it, I might be in. I have two books at the moment to get through first, and I'd have to wait on the library. (Of course if you really wanted to do chronology, you should start in the Old Republic, or at least pre-ANH). Edited July 21, 2011 by Mara Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted July 22, 2011 There is no set time limit to read them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pandora 77 Posted July 22, 2011 Maybe you should repeat that again because I'm not sure we got it... to be clear... there is not a set time limit? :p 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Princess 35 Posted July 22, 2011 Well that's what people keep asking! :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drake 53 Posted July 22, 2011 So, say I want to finish catching up on LotF first before starting this, you're saying I can start reading these whenever I want? Or am I bound by some kind of unbreakable internet rule? :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUnknown 39 Posted July 22, 2011 You will be killed slowly if you don't go in the correct order. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Drake 53 Posted July 22, 2011 So, what you're saying is, if I keep asking pointless and obvious questions, I will be in danger of some kind of virtual internet punishment? I am trembling in my virtual internet boots. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anakin Solo - Potted Plant 0 Posted July 22, 2011 You guys are cracking me up. Btw, obviously we have gone over that there is no set time limit! But is there a set date to start discussion, or do we just start discussing in the TAB thread whenever? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
