Hi Reed, this readathon ended about a week ago. We'll have another one soon. :)

Hi, friends! It's time for another readathon! I meant for this to happen a week or two ago, but... c'est la vie. 😄 We had a poll in the discord a few weeks ago where the winning vote selected for URTs to start being announced with a little more notice, so I'll try to start posting these 5-7 days pre-readathon, instead of a day or two beforehand. :)This readathon will begin at 12:00AM (your time) on Friday, September 3rd and will end at 11:59PM (your time) on Monday, September 6th!
I'm really excited that fall is right around the corner for those of us in the northern hemisphere, so there are two optional prompts:
🍁 read a book with yellow, red, or orange on the cover
🍁 read a book that gives you cozy vibes!
Post your TBR and progress updates whenever you're ready, here or in the Discord server (or both)!
If you would like an invite to the Discord server, please message me here on Goodreads or comment below and I'll DM you an invite link!
Hi, friends! It's time for another readathon! Since our last several have mostly been a week long, I thought we could do a lighting round readathon this weekend: just from 12:00AM Saturday, July 31st to 11:59PM Sunday, August 1st!Since this is such a short readathon, we only have one optional prompt:
💖 read a book that you think will make you happy! 😌

Hi, friends! It's time for another readathon! I know I normally start these at the end of the week, but I thought it might be fun to do a week-long readathon to close out the month of June!We'll start at 12:00AM (your time) Thursday, June 24th and end at 11:59PM (your time) Wednesday, June 30th.
In honor of Pride Month coming to a close, I have just one optional prompt for you:
🌈 read as many queer books or books by queer authors as you can! ♥
That's it! I know this announcement is one of those last-minute ones, so feel free to join the readathon at any time, even if you can't participate until the weekend. Post your TBR and progress updates whenever you're ready, here or in the Discord server (or both)!

I'm not sure! Probably Volume 5 of The Way of the Househusband, and maybe Revenge? I'm kind of in the mood for a horror collection and it's translated from Japanese IIRC!
Sionna wrote: "I don't think I'll be following the prompts at all because I read so much manga the week previous haha. I'll see if I can sink in some AAPI books, but I'm in such a weird reading mood that I don't ..."That's okay if it doesn't! I'm just excited to have you joining! 🥰
