As Lynnette says there’s no right or wrong way to do it. Some like to just go with the flow, others (like me) like to plan/make a schedule. I recommend easy reads, enough books to switch between and if you like those, some audiobooks for when the eyes grow tired or for taking a walk, making food etc.
Oh, and the most important thing: have fun!
I appreciate the feedback Lynnette and Susy!!!

Jaime has kept the last two readathon threads open. Look over our Closing Surveys where we say what did/not work for us as individual readers.
And continue to ask questions as it does help you and ot goves us an opportunity to chat ;)

How exciting!! Will check out your updates :)
This Readathon is proving once again how slow of a reader I actually am lol. It’s all good though, I’m just happy to spend the day getting through some of my TBR and enjoying the process.

But we enjoy our day (we rent a small place somewhere in or nearby the woods) and I love to see how everybody’s doing!
Having fun is the important part!
Finally finished my first book of the Readathon “The Book on Rental Property Investing”. Taking a little breather until 1am and then I’m going to pick back up with “Tuesday’s with Morrie”!
Good luck for the remaining hours, Kyle!
Hope you enjoyed your first read a thon! Looks like you had a good one!
See you in the new year!
