We are getting closer to our October 2024 readathon, and it is time to start really flexing those reading 'muscles' From now through this Saturday night , October 18th, how many books/pages/hours can you read? Make a TBR or just read what you feel drawn to this week, but let us know what you are reading.
Also, check out the pre-readathon challenge Cynda has created for our Goodreads, and the bingo boards for this readathon, posted on facebook, discord, and in our photos for this group. (And, if I can remember how to post photos using html here, I'll post them in a thread in the pre-readathon folder. )

Just (almost) catching up on group and buddy reads & pre-readathon challenge has been quite a warmup. I was behind on annual reading goal, now caught up. So now on to concentrating on eye exercises and one last buddy read. . . . .Looking forward to the Big Day.
