right?! Me too! I hoping to beat my record this time :D
Good luck Amanda!!
I didn't get much done last time either, but I knew that would happen since I was in Hawaii. LolI'm definitely going to try to beat my other read-a-thon points, number of books/pages if I can accurately figure out what I did previously. Lol
Thanks Trisha. Hopefully we can all get a lot of reading done this time around. That's a good idea Vicki, I should check how many points I got the past rounds to try and beat.
Yay! I want to do this again! I'm in Central time.
I wanna try. This will be my first Readathon ever. I'm in Central Time.

Good luck you three! <3
This read-a-thon I'm just gonna go and read for fun, no beating any records and anyway I already planned to read just 5 books, don't have time for more and I can't go behind with my shows, not this time. When there is another 7-days read-a-thon I'm gonna try to beat my old records, last time I beat my points record, it's now around 52, I think and pages somewhere around 2200 or more LOL ...and 8 books. It will be hard to beat that!

I probably wont do so well..but im in. Est
We currently have 38 participants! Yay! :DTomorrow is the last day that you can sign up!
YESSS I CAN READ ALL DAY FOR THIS ONE :D I'm in, lol! EST
To be a participant in this readathon you must be signed up by July 6th.
We will be having a point system that for every book you read you get some points! This is a way to add some competitiveness into our readathons (we all love that!) and a way to push ourselves to read more!
Our point system will look like this:
Pages:
450+ : 5pt
300+ : 4pt
200+ : 3pt
100+ : 2pt
Under 100 : 1pt
Sequel: 4pt
First In Series: 3pt
Standalone: 2pt
Prequels & Manga: 1 pt
*Everyone will start at the same time. Since I am in EST time I will start at midnight. So please post what time zone you are in so I can get you the time you will want to start at, depending on what part of the world you are in! :D Thanks!*
