Mark your calendars: Readathon Nov 2011 edition

[Athira]

Are you guys ready for 2012? Or close to your reading goals? If not, you have one last chance this year to get a lot of reading done! The November readathon will be held from Nov 19 Saturday 10 am US Pacific time to Nov 26 Saturday 10 am US Pacific time. As always, you can start earlier or later depending on what works for you.

This time, feel free to do the one day readathon on any day of the week. A weekend or a weekday, whichever works for you!

I'll send out an email as we approach the week of our readathon. The sign-up thread will be opened two weeks prior. There will be a discussion thread, where all participants can post their progress and cheer others. And YES, there will be mini-challenges (to be posted a week in advance)!

Make the most of it, fellow-readers!

Oh great, already looking forward to the marathon. I am doing ok with my reading goal for this year, but War and Peace is coming soon (with a reading group), so that will slow me down a lot, plus I am not sure I will finish it this year.
So with the marathon I hope to get a good head start before I get to Tolstoy. :-)

I have been waiting for this!

Happy early bday, Amber! Our birthdays are pretty close :)

I am looking forward to the RAT as well! This will be my 3rd and they're always great fun. I enjoy reading all the updates.

[Zakiya]

I agree, Ann.
