When would you like to have our next read-a-thon?

Notes:
- We are considering the idea of having a week long read-a-thon where there would be ongoing activities throughout an entire week, allowing members to read whenever schedules allow. So it would not be nonstop reading for a week (that would be insane!) but would hopefully accommodate most of the group.
- If we decide on a single date, then we can nail down a time of day/time zone closer to December
- The poll will remain open until closer to the dates so feel free to change your answer according to popular times.
