Jonel Welcome to our week long read-a-thon. This read-a-thon runs from April 5-12/15. That's right, at Hooked on Books we've decided that there aren't enough hours in a day, or days in a week, so our week long read-a-thons run for 8 days! Each participant reads from 12:01am on April 5/15 to 11:59pm on April 12/15 in their local time zone.

Please Note: We're doing things a little differently this time around. This post with be for both the reading lists & for chatting while the read-a-thon is going on!

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.

I've linked everyone's names to their original posts for ease of access during the read-a-thon.

*Please do not delete a post once created. Doing so will disrupt the links in the 'participants' post. If you can no longer participate, that's no problem, feel free to edit your original post but please leave your post there.

thinks but since I happen to love to read Clive Cussler and he's one of 2 all time favorites of mine, then its easy to get lost in his work, like I do when ever I read his book series.


message 30: by Elizabeth (new)

Elizabeth I just realized that my first four books that I've got down are all mysteries, so lets hope that my next ones arn't.and on that note i'm almost done with my 2nd book The Bootlegger (Isaac Bell, #7) by Clive Cussler .I'm 316 pages in the 435 pages of the book.and i'm loving it.
