I have several books planned. They change every day as they are also just part of my April reading so I'm checking off books every day.
(maybe only one novella from here)
(Again going to pick and choose from the novellas)

I love all your options. I'm going to try to figure out my list tomorrow. I am so behind on the Magical Readathon and so will be basing my picks based on catching up with that.

Thanks! Most are books I have read previously but never finished the whole series so I am prioritizing those books over newer books no matter how shiny they are. lol.
Possible reading plans:- Kitchen
- The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie
- The Heart's Invisible Furies
- Career of Evil
- The Magic of Motherhood: The Good Stuff, the Hard Stuff, and Everything In Between
- Get a Life, Chloe Brown
- How to Be a Woman
- The Night Circus
My reading plans are pretty narrowed down this time and am hoping to get to 1000 pages...Bringing Down the Duke
Farmer Giles of Ham
The Invisible Man
Gentleman Jack (Movie Tie-In): The Real Anne Lister
The Doll: The Lost Short Stories
But knowing me I might dip into another section of my TRB!

I don't really have a TBR - I just gonna finish reading the books I'm reading now. There are like 8 of them, so I don't know if I succeed

I'm going to finish the Inheritance cycle, or at least try to do it! I'll read-Eldest
-Brisingr
-Inheritance
I just finished Eragon, so I'm really excited!
Since the start of the COVID-19 shutdown a month ago, about all I’ve been reading is the newspaper and more newspapers and Facebook (and playing games on my phone). So if the Readathon gets me to actually read a BOOK it will be a win.Both of the books I'm reading are related to upcoming online bookclub meetings
The Secret Garden
The Third Daughter
I'm also likely to read a story or two from
How Long 'til Black Future Month?
I think my potential stack is going to look like this:
No particular theme to my TBR, but just books that I hope can hold my attention. I definitely won't get to all of them, but it would be great to finish even 2!

Hello everyone!For the first time in years, this readathon is happening after my winter finals! I will finish these two books first:
I want to read+finish these two:
And maybe one audiobook (HP1) for when I take my walks, cook etc, and a poetry collection to switch things up. I probably won't read for 24 hours... so I try to keep this TBR reasonable.
Good reading!
S.
My TBR is The Unusual Suspects Gregor and the Curse of the Warmbloods Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix My Sister's Keeper Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's LibraryHarry Potter and My Sister's Keeper are books I will be finishing, but I also want to attempt to read the other three. Wish me luck. The readathon starts at 8 am for me and it is 2:38 am right now. Hopefully I will be able to get some good rest because I really want to kill this readathon considering it is my first Dewey's Readathon and readathon in general and now my last.
This is my planned reading list:The Summer Book
The Priory of the Orange Tree
Life, the Universe and Everything
The Snow Child
My Sister, the Serial Killer
The Governess Was Wicked
Some are books I am currently reading, some chosen for RAT. I hope to finish as much as I can.

Interested to see what you make of 13 Ways of Looking at a Fat Girl, it keeps catching my eye but I haven't picked it up yet.

The Snow Child and The Summer Book are both beautiful, I hope you enjoy them!
I will finish The First Mrs. RothschildHopefully will finish late today. Then my next read chosen for me is Your Perfect Year by Charlotte Lucas.
I'm going to go for some quicker reads, including some cozy mysteries. Probably just keep going with "next in series" of the Witchless in Seattle books because what's in progress for me (starts with Witch Slapped) and spacing the books out with desired short stories in anthology Fantastic Hope and Strange Brew.
I use iPad VoiceOver which reads books out to me.
Here's my list on my blog: https://justkatherineblog.wordpress.c...
I want to listen to more if there's time.

PERCY JACKSON AND THE OLYMPIANS . Good choice . Which book in the series you reading ?

I pulled a few books that I've been wanting to spend time with and wrote up a quick post detailing them. One of them is Dickens by Peter Ackroyd. Given that it's nearly 1200 pages I clearly don't plan to finish that one. :) I'm looking forward to spending time deep diving into a number of books. I'm having to start my site over from scratch after two malware attacks last year. Lost all my work but it's a chance to start anew. So this gives me a chance to write about readathons again.
