Allie (captiveheart) | 58 comments Hey,

There's been some demand for another readathon in the group.
So here's a thread to get one going. Proposed date is 30th Oct-1st Nov for a quick little weekend readathon.

I'll probably host another week long one in November.
If anyone is interested in doing a readalong for a particular book, check out the readalongs thread in this folder too!

Hope you can join us :)

message 28: by Allie (new)

Allie (captiveheart) | 58 comments My TBR for the weekend is:
Illuminae (The Illuminae Files, #1) by Amie Kaufman Because omg the hype for this book is so real right now! I've already read 200 pages of it this morning and I'm totally getting this one read by Sunday!
Harley Quinn, Vol. 1 Hot in the City by Amanda Conner Already mostly finished with this one. Illuminae has put everything on hold for the moment.
Suicide Squad, Vol. 1 Kicked in the Teeth by Adam Glass Another graphic novel that I'm excited to start.
And if I finish Illuminae and have some time I'll continue on with The Book Thief by Markus Zusak

Desiree Are there any reading challenges so we can choose our books based on that?

I've personally gone with new releases and graphic novels really. But I thought if people did want a theme you could do spooky theme: Conspiracy, thriller, sci fi, etc.

message 41: by Athena (new)

Athena Greek (athenagreek) | 6 comments I am reading Dracula, and I seriously want to finish it before NaNo.


message 42: by [deleted user] (new)

I'll be finishing Need by Joelle Charbonneau, then starting How I Found You by Gabrille Lepore.

Not sure what I'll get to if I finish both.


message 43: by Mary (new)

Mary I am currently finishing up The Selection by Kiera Cass then I will be trying to read Wicked:Witch and Curse by Nancy Holder and Debbie Viguie that I started like a week ago. I'm just not feeling this book though. Has anyone read this book or had this problem with Wicked?


message 44: by Desiree (new)

Desiree How many books are you planning to read this readathon weekend?


message 45: by Michelle (new)

Michelle Okay, I wasn't planning to do this since I had a hectic work schedule, but I got sick so I ended up reading a bit more.

I read a few novellas - The Little Android by Marissa Meyer, it was about 35 pages as well as Carswell Thrones Guide to Being Lucky also by Marissa Meyer which was about 45 pages and then I read Fairest also by Marissa Meyer which was about 240 pages I believe. So I've read about 300ish pages.

I also have started Between The Pages by Jodi Picoult & Samantha Van Leer. So far I've only got about 40 pages into it and I'm really enjoying it. I still have a day left and however much I read before I fall asleep. But I'm going to try to go to work tomorrow without having to come home half way through!

Athena Greek (athenagreek) | 6 comments My TBR for the week-end is Dracula.I have passe from 30% to 75% of the book. I am also happy that I found an audio version of it on Spotify, read by Christopher Lee.


message 49: by Desiree (new)

Desiree No way. That's so cool. Maybe I'm going to read it soon with the audiobook by Christopher Lee accompanying me. Is it also available for people who only have free spotify?


message 50: by Athena (new)

Athena Greek (athenagreek) | 6 comments yes I also have the free version. I still have chill from it, I just finished it.
