Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments Hey Guys,

This is my first time hosting a Readathon so I would like some co hosts to help me and any post ideas to go along side the Readathon and the reading challenges :)

Hope you enjoy this idea!

Heather | 34 comments I would love to cohost with you!


message 3: by Tanya (new)

Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments Thanks Hannah :)

@Heather Yay!! Do you have a blog where you can do a discussion post like 10 most anticipated reads?


message 4: by Victoria (new)

Victoria Scott I have a blog, and I'd love to co-host! But you'll have to tell me what to do, I've never done something like this before :)


message 5: by Tanya (new)

Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments Me neither :) I see what I can come up with!


message 6: by Victoria (new)

Victoria Scott Oh cool, we can be lost together then :P


message 7: by Tanya (new)

Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments Lol :p

I think one of the posts should be most anticipated reads for January, another one could be books with red on the cover because garnet is the birthstone for January.

Top 10 Winter Books... Just something that might go along with January, Winter or maybe to do with one of the challenges :)


message 8: by Tanya (new)

Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments The posts will not be posted everyday, it will be scattered throughout the two weeks but hopefully you will like my ideas so far....

I've also thought of Top 10 Series/Books you would like to finish by the end of the year.


message 9: by Victoria (new)

Victoria Scott Those are good ideas :) I love the birthstone idea! Maybe for the challenges we could recommend 5 books to fit each one? I don't want to do a winter post though, because it's summer over here, but you still should :)


message 10: by Tanya (new)

Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments You can do a summer one while we do a winter one :)


message 11: by Tanya (new)

Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments That's a great idea to choose 5 books :)


message 12: by Victoria (new)

Victoria Scott Yeah, good idea :)


message 13: by Tanya (new)

Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments But I was thinking of one post per host and not all of us doing the same post.


message 14: by Victoria (new)

Victoria Scott Yeah, that would make more sense. So there are at least two of us, maybe three? Should we sort out who's doing what closer to the time?


message 15: by Tanya (new)

Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments I think so because we might get more host requests but if there is one you want to do then you can sign up for that post and no one else can take it.


message 16: by Victoria (new)

Victoria Scott I'll do the summer one, but other than that I don't have any preferences


message 17: by Tanya (new)

Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments Okay :) We need to wait then :)


message 18: by Victoria (new)

Victoria Scott Okay :)


message 19: by Heather (new)

Heather | 34 comments I honestly don't have a Top 5 Winter books but oh do I have the series! My blog is www.pinkzebrareads.blogspot.com I haven't posted on there in awhile but I am ready to get it back rolling!


message 20: by Tanya (new)

Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments If you don't have any p, you could do books you haven't read yet or books that just look wintery. It could be anything.


message 21: by Heather (new)

Heather | 34 comments okay :)


message 22: by Tanya (last edited Jan 01, 2015 05:11AM) (new)

Tanya (bookaholic22) | 46 comments If you want me to change it, I could swap it with one of my ones :)


message 23: by Heather (new)

Heather | 34 comments I can 5 Five wintery reads! Did you mean post our TBR for the readathon on the blog or for January?


message 24: by Tanya (new)
