[Andrea]

How many books are you aiming for during our first read-a-thon of the month of January?

[Andrea]

I'm going to try for five.

[Abigail]

I am shooting for 2-9.

[Hannah]

Trying for 10.

[Marlene]

At the rate I'm going these days, I would be happy with one or two!

[Abigail]

I am just going to say I hit my goal for this week since I've read 4 books over 150 pages with 5 books shorter than that.

[Andrea]

We’re into week two!

How many books are aiming for Jan 10-16?

I’m going for 4.

[E.F.]

I'm still shocked I managed to squeeze in 2 in the first week-ish. If I can get 2 again this week, I'll be happy.

[Andrea]

Great job!

I got my first book yesterday.

[Hannah]

I'm going to try again for 10 because I totally missed it in the first week.

[Erika]

I read 8 books in the first week! I believe seven were over 150 pages.

[Andrea]

How many books did you get last week?

I got three.

How many are you aiming for Jan 17-23?

I’m aiming for five but only have one so far. Trying to push a bit.

[E.F.]

I didn't finish any last week. But this week I'm confident I'll finish one, if not two.

[Marlene]

I am so jealous of those of you who can finish multiple books in a week! Wow!!!!! :-)

[Andrea]

Final week!

What number are you aiming for?

I’m way behind on books but over the line on pages. I’ll try for four more books.

[Angie]

I'm seriously behind too. I would have to read a book a day to meet my goal, so probably not going to happen, but we'll see. ;)

[Andrea]

How many books did y'all end up getting that last week?

I blew right past my goal of four books and ended up getting thirteen to pass my grand goal of seventeen books for the month (ended up getting twenty-one).

[R. L.]

I got one 🤣

[Andrea]

Great job! Which one was it?

[R. L.]

O To Be Like There by Kassie Angle 🥰🤩🇺🇸

[Andrea]

Lovely! I haven't yet read any of her books. That title is such a throwback. I love it.

[R. L.]

Oh, you so need to!! She gets better with every book!!!

[Andrea]

That's so great to hear! I love author growth from book to book. Fantastic!
