Good work! I’m trying to finish up my first book: Mossad: The Greatest Missions of the Israeli Secret Service.
Rachel I’m about 200 pages from finishing ACOMAF and I’m about to make some coffee to keep me going. It’s pretty cold where I live right now.
Question for everyone: do you plan your books around the bonus word or just read what you want/planned and hope it works out?
Plan around the bonus word or if they haven’t posted the bonus words I choose one that best fits books I’ve already completed
Leane wrote: "Question for everyone: do you plan your books around the bonus word or just read what you want/planned and hope it works out?"I just read what I want and hope for the best. Having too strict of a plan for what I read tends to put me in a slump.
How about you?

The most you can have for any one book is 3 bonus points, 1 for title and 2 for author.
For example (if WINTER were our bonus word):
Nothing Lasts Forever by Sidney Sheldon = 1 point for title
OR
Fire in the Blood by Dale Ibitz = 2 bonus points for author last name
OR
Winter Swans by Danica Winters = 1 point for title, 2 points for author = 3 bonus points
Be sure to tally your pages and bonus points separately. The top 3 people with the most bonus points at the end of the challenge will get to choose a bonus word for the next quarter. NOTE: Bonus point winners cannot win in two read-a-thon's in a row, to give more people the chance to choose bonus words.
To sign up simply start yourself a post to track what you've read during the read-a-thon. Edit your post throughout the read-a-thon to let everyone know which books you've read & your total number of pages.
