I love the timing of this one!I'll be celebrating Christmas the 24th, 25th, and 26th. I'll be expecting books, so it's great that this will give me a chance to read the new pretties!
Also, last chance to read AS MANY BOOKS AS POSSIBLE for the year of 2015!
Yes, the timing is great! I'll be between semesters, and I have plenty of reading I want to catch up on!
Right?! I have such a HUGE PILE still to finish for 2015!I'm so excited for this!
I have a few 12 hour shifts that week, but will read as much as I can
What a FUN time to share our love of reading!! I'm so excited since I'll be OFF!!! I will hopefully get more read since I won't be working. Woo hoo!When does the read-a-thon end? I assume it's a weeklong one?

Ha ha, no you were perfectly clear. I was just a bit overly excited! I think something is majorly wrong with me. I need Clementine to do a psych evaluation on me! LOLThanks, Bookbuyer. :o)

lol. NP. ^-^
This is perfect! I recently received some books for review, so this is perfect timing. Hopefully I will finish some of those, and some of the million library books I have checked out! :)
Hi. This will be my first read-a-thon! I hope I'll get to read a lot of books! :D
Also my first read-a-thon.I wanted to participate at one for at least two years but at first one couldn't enter groups on the app and I always forgot searching for one when I was on my laptop.
Perfect timing that I found a group today that is about to do a read- a-thon!
I'm super excited for another read-a-thon. I'm on winter break now so I will have more time to read. Yay! For the last read-a-thon I was super busy so I definitely plan to read more. :)
Just found out that I'll be babysitting my cousin during the read-a-thon. Meh. At least I'll be getting paid. Maybe he'll just play video games the whole time and I can read...

Well, he's at that age now! XDSadly, he usually wants me to play the game with him!
OMG I'm so excited for this!!I'm so behind in my reading. I'm excited for a reason to catch up ! :D
Less than 12 hours until we start!! Is everyone ready?Have that pile of books read to go?? :)
I can't wait for tomorrow! Last time I joined I read only one book, was busy and couldn't read more. Now I'm all ready!
I will not force myself, planning to go easy and just enjoy in this read-a-thon. ^^
My first book to 'kick-off' this read-a-thon will be
Yay! I'm so glad the timing works better for you! and good idea, 1st book all planned.
I think I'll plan mine just before I start :)
I have 4 to finish today before I am ready!
You go Trisha!! Good luck!!9 hours and I get to start!! Yay!!!
I guess I should spend the afternoon deciding on which books I'm going to read.
I have to plan out my TBR tonight!I got tons of new books for Christmas as well as awesome and beautiful new shelves! I also just got a new (so COMFY!) reading chair. I love it so it looks like I am set for this readathon.
I have an alarm set for 5, I still haven't finished the book I am reading now but it's too late to finish it, I just got off work and I need sleep
I'm trying to get all my book reviews typed up so I'll have plenty of time to read this next week!

I have 2 more books to finish up.:) and 3 hours to do it! LOL
Good luck, Trisha!! I'm going to go into the readathon with books I've begun, but I'll probably put them on hold until it's finished. I hate to do that but I also hate not getting my full points. LOL

Good luck everyone!! Just read a few pages of I'll Give You The Sun and I think I'll have a very good time reading it. I'll go to sleep and then I'll continue with the read-a-thon.
I love read-a-thons and I am really happy to get started! (I just need to close goodreads....)

Actually I'm finishing up What We Saw and also reading this little book my sister-in-law gave me called Don't Forget to Sing in the Lifeboats. Tomorrow I'm starting on Oblivion, I think. Lol My son is giving a sermon tomorrow so I'm going to listen to that at 7:30 in the morning online and then I serve in the nursery at my church so I won't be able to start reading until about 1:00 in the afternoon.
