IKR! I have completely lost my sense of time...lol

I am so excited! I am trying to make a huge list of books I can pick from! WOOOO

Sarah wrote: "IKR! I have completely lost my sense of time...lol"

Same here. :)

I am too! I will post mine later to pick through it once the readathon starts :)

Finished one of my books today. One more left to finish before the readathon starts. I'm excited.

do we have to finish a book for it to count as a book we read?

Good luck! Me too!

Chantae wrote: "do we have to finish a book for it to count as a book we read?"

Yes. If you start a book before the readathon and finish during it you can count the pages you read towards your final page count but you can't claim any points. If you start AND finish it during the readathon you can count all pages and claim points.

Okay, so I have finished Thanks Mandiann, it was a fast read!

I need another book to read tomorrow now though! I have no plans tomorrow so if I don't have a book I won't have anything to do! LOL

Jacque, you just bought a bunch of new books. LOL

Hmmm well which books are you debating starting? I have a the opposite problem. Too many on the go and not enough time to read. Too many distractions.

LOL! Vicki, I am looking for a short book. I would read the books I bought but they are too long for me to read them in a day. haha!

Well I actually think I am going to start It sounds super good and there are lots of photographs that will quicken up the pace!

I hope you get them all done! Do you have any plans for tomorrow?

I knew it was something like that. Just giving you a hard time. LOL Just like we girls who "never have a thing to wear," we readers "never have a book to read for that SPECIAL occasion!" LOL

LOL! Exactly! ;)

That's the link to where you will claim your points throughout the week.

So excited! Less than a day to go! :)

I need to finish up today! I have 231 pages left!

Good luck Jacquelyn. :)

Thanks! (: Do you have any ideas on what you are going to read first during the readathon?

You're welcome. And yep, I want to read this: before I head to the library tomorrow. That way I can get some more new books, stupid 6 books max limit. :(

Ooh! That seems like it would be an interesting book! I couldn't imagine a limit on the books! I wish I could put you in with our no limit, lol!

I hope you like the book! I am not sure what I am starting the readathon off with yet. I will decide that later tonight.

Indeed, and I find WOII books very interesting to read, so I can't wait to start it.
I couldn't imagine it either. :( Just 2 years ago their biggest subscription was like 60 books every time. Now the biggest subscription there is 6 books max, and the bad thing other than the book limit? That they kept the price the same.
I would love that, if that was possible. Sometimes I wish I lived in the US. Just for the books, the libraries and some other things. :)

Thanks, I hope so too, like I said, it seems like an interesting book. I am not sure if I am around then (since your tonight means I am probably sleeping), but I will see it tomorrow then. :)

Hope you enjoy!

That really stinks!

Yeah, most likely, when I pick, you will be asleep! (: I am super excited! :D

Do everyone needs to do that Scavenger hunt? *I don't like that* :/

You don't have to if you don't want to. :)

oh, ok :) that's good (Thanks for fast answer :P)

I still have a hard time to decide which book will I read tomorrow, first one. From 14 really good books and those that I really want to read... uhh but I think it will be one of those:

1 book down, 2 to finish up before that readthon starts. I will probably only get 1 done and have to pause the other for a week.

I will start the readthon with my team challenge book, probably .

Today I'm hoping to finish up , and I'm still thinking about what I'll start with :/

ok, I just need to check this one more time (I need to be sure):
Because I will read all my books on tablet, that means when I finish my book, I go to amazon, check kindle edition and see how many pages that book have, right?

Like this:

Pages: 501 (5 points)
1st in series: (3 points)
total: 8 points

is this ok? ;)

Looks good to me, Miodrag.

Exactly. :)

That's exactly what you would do Mio! :)

Good luck everyone with your books!

I really hope I can finish my book today but if not, I will finish it next week, like Mandiann may do.

ok, now I just need to wait tomorrow morning and... Let the 5th read-a-thon BEGIN! Good luck everyone and Happy reading! It will be one really good week, with lots of books and just books. :D <3

Yes, it really will be an awesome week! This is one of my favorite things that happen in our group! (:

I almost forgot I have to charge my Kindle! I have been reading lots of physical books lately so my Kindle has been dead for a while! Putting it in the charger now!! (:

Yes, I will be charging mine soon and updating it with all of my new ebooks. Thanks for the reminder!!

Can't wait to start!!!!

I'm on the same page as you Jacque. I won't be reading half books, except if I don't finish Harry Potter today because I have to return it Wednesday.

Harry Potter #1?

I have to charge my kindle today too, the battery is dead right now.

but I can get points for the pages just not the book, right.
(sorry for asking so many questions)

Not if you started before the readathon. You can only get points for the pages and book if you started and finished during the marathon.

You're welcome! I should get some ebooks from my library tonight so I can read on the go!

Thanks Jacque!

Right now, it actually looks like I WILL finish my current read! WOOHOO!

I have 54 pages left of Safekeeping!

Congrats Jacque!
