I'm so sorry for your loss :( My thoughts are with you and yours <3

I got sick yesterday and ended up reading NOTHING. 😬 I did finish Club Dead on my lunch today, though, and I'm about to start an audio reread of Captive Prince and play a game.

It's absolutely okay! :D Welcome to the group!

I didn't end up reading anything else today. 😂 We got back into our cleaning mood and finished de-cluttering the kitchen instead. I guess I'll make this my page-counting comment:

Sunday is usually our errands-and-cleaning day in my house, and we spent almost the entire day de-cluttering, cleaning, reorganizing, and shopping, but I've gotten to read a bit more of Club Dead! I'm about halfway through and I think I might put it on hold for the rest of the evening and focus on knocking out a few more of the graphic novels I have out from the library.

It's 1:52AM here on Sunday, and I decided to kick off the readathon by chipping away at Club Dead 😏 I think I've read about 60pg so far!

I hope June treats you better, love ♥♥

Yaaaaaay I'm loving seeing all of your TBRs! I swore I was just focusing on current reads but I def started a new book already today (Club Dead), though on the other hand I'm so hooked I might finish it today, too lmao.

ohh that's awesome, I didn't even realize smutathon was this week! 😂 I wish I could join it!

Aurora Rising has queer rep, too! :D Fin is pan and he's precious ♥

Yaaaay, so glad you're all joining! (except Evelyn - I'm sorry you can't, but good luck with your exams!! ♥♥)

I'm just gonna try to wipe out as many current reads as I can, and I miiiight also reread the Captive Prince series again. 😂

Hello, everyone! Since so many people said they loved the week-long readathon we had last time, how about another one?!

This readathon will begin at 12:00AM (your time zone) Sunday, June 2nd, and will end at 11:59PM (again, your time zone!) Saturday, June 8th.

In honor of June being Pride Month here in the US, the only challenge for this week's readathon is to read as many books with LGBTQ+ rep as you can!

Post your TBR whenever you're ready, and have fun, lovelies! ♥

Sorry that I'm not very good at replying to this thread, but welcome to the group, everyone! ♥♥ I promise I read every introduction and I'm so happy you're all here! (I'm just not always the best at verbalizing that 😂💕)

Way to go, everyone! 😍😍😍 These numbers are incredible!

Here are my final counts:

Sunday: —

Monday: 290pg (Wilder Girls, In Darkness Delight, A Girl Like Her)

Tuesday: 1,286pg (In Darkness Delight, This One Summer, Spinning, Regression V.2, Rendez-Vous in Phoenix, Lucky Penny)

Wednesday: 100pg (Living Dead in Dallas)

Thursday: —

Friday: 1,048 (Joe Hill: The Graphic Novel Collection, Fresh Romance V.1, My Brother's Husband V.2)

Saturday: 612 (A Girl Like Her, My Heroes Have Always Been Junkies, Winnebago Graveyard, Goldie Vance V.1, Living Dead in Dallas)

TOTAL: 3,336pg

For Friday, I read...

472pg: Joe Hill: The Graphic Novel Collection

224pg: Fresh Romance, Vol. 1

352pg: My Brother's Husband, Volume 2

You guys are seriously killing this readathon! I think this is the most I've been able to read in any of the readathons since starting this group, too. Maybe these week-long ones will have to be a more frequent thing, if you all liked it being a bit longer? :)

I didn't get to read much today, but I did enough cleaning that I'm hoping I can justify doing nothing BUT reading after work tomorrow! 😂

I forgot to update last night because I accidentally fell asleep super early, but here was my day 3 (tuesday) progress:

- 150pg of In Darkness, Delight: Masters of Midnight
- 320pg of This One Summer
- 400pg of Spinning
- 128pg of Regression, Vol. 2: Disciples
- 80pg of Rendez-Vous in Phoenix
- 208pg of Lucky Penny

It's midnight here, so day 2 has ended for me! I read:

141pg of In Darkness, Delight: Masters of Midnight

99pg of A Girl Like Her (reread)

50pg of Wilder Girls

I work 10-4 or 5 (not sure yet) today, so I won't be reading much until later, but I do have some commuting to do that should let me work on my reread of A Girl Like Her! I also read 50pg of Wilder Girls after midnight last night.
