[Kassandra]

This is the thread where you can discuss which books you are planning to read for the December readathon. The readathon will run from 12:01 a.m. on December 25th to 11:59 p.m. on December 31st. Happy reading!

[Ed]

Hmmm. Maybe some discworld novels by Pratchett

[caitlin;]

I'm probably gonna read the books I get at Xmas but I don't know what they are!

[Alessandra]

I either gonna try and finish what I'm reading now (depanding on how much time I'll have for reading until then) or just simply read the books I'm going to get for christmas :D *already knows which they will be*

[Stephanie]

I'm just gonna read the books that have been on my TBR pile for months now.

[Becca]

I doubt I'll make any special effort for this readathon. Probably will just finish out the year with whatever strikes my fancy.

[Salma]

Trying to go read every book on my need-to-read-soon shelve, but there are 20+ books... Wish me luck haha

[Renee, Mistress of the Mini-Challenge]

I'm quite excited to finish out the year with this. I have some time off from work and my ever growing tbr. So thick socks, hot cocoa, a cozy blanket, and off I will happily go!

[Kassandra]

I'm excited too! I doubt I will plan anything specific as I plan on getting books for Xmas but I don't know specifically which. I provided a list to my family so it will be a little surprise as to which they choose!

Renee, I love reading with soft, thick socks and a comfy blanket in the winter. Add a roaring fire and life can't get any better!

[Gavin]

I'll just focus on finishing my planned reads for December.

One of my all time favorite series :)

It will be a busy time for me, with kids being off of school, so I'm going to set a goal of 3 books-

but I don't know which ones yet :P

[Janet]

I want to finish up the books I've been working my way through and have put down-- I'm also tempted to snuggle up with a few of my favorites :)

[Amber]

Right now I am reading The Name of the Wind then will get to other reads. I'll be on this one for a while as its a long book.

[Tahlia]

Hm I haven't yet decided but i'm thinking of completing all the books that i've been meaning to read this year but haven't had the time to do so. This will be my first readathon, so excited!!

[Sue]

There is something about the holidays that makes me want to read high fantasy. I'm not sure why, but I've neglected Robin Hobb's Farseer series. I'm going to rectify that.

[Happy]

Jim Hines' Rise of the Spider Goddess: An Annotated Novel for the lulz, and then I'll start on my 2015 Diversity Challenge.

[Amelina]

I'm going to be reading Outlander.

[Tahlia]

I'm having trouble reading lately but at the moment I'm reading Cat's Cradle

[Audrey]

I'm planning on reading The Carrie Diaries, Top Ten Clues You're Clueless!
Depends how i feel, i will like to read Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone or Legend
Hope I can finish both & more. I'm also planning on doing a 24 hour readathon by myself tomorrow or in two days :)

[Gavin]

Well, already finished my planned reads for December already, so looking at my shelves, I decided I'll read:
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and Rip Van Winkle
Poirot Investigates
Peter Pan
Lord of the Flies
Persuasion

[Holly, That Geeky One]

Okay, looking at my challenge, I need to read 7 books during the readathon to complete it. So my Iist is:

The Iliad, by Homer (just over half way through, need to finish)
The Chimes, by Charles Dickens READ 26/12
Heat Rises, by Richard Castle
Coriolanus, by William Shakespeare
The Taming of the Shrew, by William Shakespeare
To The Lighthouse, by Virginia Woolf
The Trial, by Kafka

Hopefully I can do this!
