Jonel Welcome to our 24 hour long read-a-thon. This read-a-thon runs on March 21/15. Each reader reads from 12:01am on March 21/15 to 11:59pm on March 21/15 in their local time zone.

To sign up simply start yourself a post to track what you've read during the read-a-thon. Edit your post throughout the read-a-thon to let everyone know which books you've read & your total number of pages.

I've linked everyone's names to their original posts for ease of access during the read-a-thon.

*Please do not delete a post once created. Doing so will disrupt the links in the 'participants' post. If you can no longer participate, that's no problem, feel free to edit your original post but please leave your post there.

Please Note: We're doing things a little differently this time around. This post with be for both the reading lists & for chatting while the read-a-thon is going on!

message 13: by Kayla (new)

Kayla (kaylaschwae) | 399 comments Well I'm not going to get any reading done this weekend:( I'm on a cleaning spree:)


message 14: by Jonel (new)

Jonel Be sure to update your totals!


message 15: by Jonel (new)

Jonel Question to those who participate in the 24hr read-a-thons. Would we prefer to change them to 48h & have the whole weekend?


message 16: by Kayla (new)

Kayla (kaylaschwae) | 399 comments I personally love 48 hours ones because If I get noth I ng read one day I still have a chance the next. :)


Adrianna [SypherLily] (sypherlily) | 276 comments I would love the 48hrs !


message 18: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth I would love it either way. one because its fun,2 because I'm reading like I use to do, 3: either way will help cut down my kindle TBR book list which has about 135 books on it.


Ashley (JaffaCaffa) (jaffacaffa) | 166 comments I'd do 24 and 48 hr read-a-thons.

I agree that it'd be nice for when I'm not up for reading one day I could still participate in the other day, but at the same time I like to feel like I've read a lot so my "average pages read" would prob be much lower during the 48 than the 24 (reading all days makes me exhausted the next day).


message 20: by Jonel (last edited Apr 28, 2015 05:00AM) (new)

Jonel Alternatively, we could leave the 24hr read a thons for quick sprints , & week long ones, & add another weekend which is 48hrs.
