Once Upon a Read-a-thon Goals and Updates
Although I have lots of review writing to do, it’s time for the Once Upon a Read-a-thon and I just can help myself so signing up. Thanks to Create with Joy for tipping me off on this read-a-thon. The Once Upon a Read-a-Thon is hosted by Candace’s Book Blog, Pure Imagination and Reading Angels and runs from today through Wednesday, July 10th. There are a couple mini-challenges each day, lots of giveaways on these blogs and a chance to win a $100 Gift Card during the read-a-thon…amazing!
My goals for this read-a-thon are pretty simple:
* Read Devil in the White City by Erik Larson for my book club. I’m only about 1/3rd of the way through it so I think that’s all I will be able to read.
* Participate in the Twitter chat, Wednesday July 10th at 9pm, hashtag #OUReadathon.
* Update and schedule 6 more reviews using Ultimate Book Blogger Plugin.
Won’t you join us for the Once Upon a Read-a-thon? I love meeting new bloggers during these events and getting caught up on my favorite “me time” hobby…reading!
Are you participating in this readathon? If so, leave me a link to your post and I’ll be sure to stop by! What are you currently reading? Have a great night, time to snuggle up with a great book!
I’ve never even heard of a “readathon” before. Sounds like fun! Good luck with the gift certificate. I have my fingers crossed for you! –Lisa
Good luck with your goals 🙂 I looooved The Devil in the White City
I’m enjoying it more than I thought I would. Although I thought of you last night because I started describing to my husband right before he shut his light off to go to bed, the various warning signs Holmes exhibited, he kindly had to tell me to cut it out cause I was going to freak him out. heehee…maybe I could’ve picked a better time to tell him about the book.
Ahh, so glad to see you signed up – I knew my Read-a-thon buddy couldn’t resist! 🙂
I hope you do well in the read-a-thon and I hope we catch up during the chat on Wed.
Hope to be there if DH doesn’t have me scheduled for other things!
Yea, I tried to resist but I just can’t, it’s a compulsion really. I’m too late to sign up officially but I did the post and will try to accomplish my goals anyway because they are what I wanted to get done this week anyway. Hope to chat with you on Wed, I always love to hear from you!
