Oh no, I missed this one :-( I can’t keep up with my GR newsfeed anymore, but I’m friends with many of you here so if someone could ping me next time, I love to join in. Hope you smash the target!

I can most certainly let you know when our read-a-thons are coming up, Tracey. I'll put it on my calendar right now to remind me if you'd like. They are quarterly so the next one should be the first weekend of June or thereabouts.
Our fearless mods, Brenda, Phrynne, and Sally, can give you the proper information.

I'm thinking that you can still participate, Tracey, as there is still time remaining in this one and all the pages you read will count!
Happy reading! =o)
