Will there be a place to track our progress or do we post here?
We will probably set up another thread specifically for people to chat/track their reading for each readathon.
Yes, this week is a little hectic at the moment, but I will definitely get around to that well in advance of the marathons.
Always love redathons. I'm in :-)
Elizabeth, Trisha, and Laura: you've all been added.:)
Yes, provided your book fits in the categories and rules for each challenge, you can count it. For the readathons, your books can only be counted if read within the challenge dates. All pages read during the readathons will be counted.:)
I'm in! Sounds like we have a ton of fun stuff planned for May!!
Yes, we're super excited and glad you guys are too!:)
I'm in! I love Readathons...they push me to read more!
Yay! I don't know if I have any concrete opinions on readathons.
Never done a Readathon yet...sounds like fun. I'm in.
Okay, my goodreads notifications are officially being weird. I just got the notification that Bunnita commented on this thread 3 minutes ago, though it was actually 3 hours ago. Also, this has been happening on other threads, so something is up and is probably why I've missed some of the comments.

Yes, goodreads is definitely glitching with updates. It's driving me crazy!
I'd like to participate please. =]
As part of our Mega Mad May we will be hosting a couple of readathons! They will be really relaxed and mostly for us to have fun as a group, so it won’t be added reading pressure. And there may be a few surprises thrown in, so stay tuned!
Those who participate in the readathons (commenting as they go) will receive five bonus points toward their overall challenge score. You will also receive a bonus if you complete one of the associated challenges.
Readathon One
This readathon will run from the 4-11th. The goal is to read what you can during this time, checking in and chatting with the group as you go.
*Challenge: Read at least 200 pages
*Challenge: Complete at least one space on the bingo board
Readathon Two
This readathon will run from the 18-25th. The goal is to read what you can during this time, checking in and chatting with the group as you go.
*Challenge: Complete at least two spaces on the bingo board
*Challenge: Read at least 300 pages.
