IT'S A PERKS CONNECTED READ-A-THON
![]()
As a group let's see what we can read in the month and have a Read-A-Thon with a twist!
How this works...
* Each book needs to "connect" to the last one posted
* "Connects" can be based on by genre, author, title, character names, colour of cover, same award won or number of pages
* As soon as you have a book that you have read in the month that can connect to the last one, post it with the reasons it "connects" and the running tally for you, and for the group for the month, and let's see how many books we can read and connect in the month!
EXAMPLE
Post 1:
Kristie posts:
Mr. MercedesKristie's tally - 1 book
Perks Group tally - 1 book
Post 2:
Karen Posts
The Girl Who Saved the King of SwedenConnected by: "King" (author and then title)
Karen's tally: 1 book
Perks group tally: 2 books
Post 3:
Kristie posts:
The Girl with the Dragon TattooConnected by: Cover colour is yellow
Kirstie's tally: 2 books
Perks group tally: 3 books
.... hopefully you get the idea....
NOTE: You can read any book of any length, children's books and graphic novels also count. Please just remember to check the tally of the book ahead of you and add up the tally as you post
Books need to be marked as "read" between September 1 and September 30, 2016. (It doesn't matter when you started)

When we send out our newsletter in a few days there will probably be a few more people stopping by here
