Anyone in for a New Year‘s Readathon?

Join me for #26in26 - the aim is to read 26 hours, 26 chapters, 26 pages, whatever works for you!

LiseWorks I'm in 3d

ShananigansReads I‘m in. Excited to kick off the new year of reading. Mostly so I can use all my new trackers. 😊🤦🏾‍♀️ 3d
ChaoticMissAdventures I am in!! I did pretty well on #25in25 getting old books off my shelves! 3d
coffees Oooo, sounds fun! #bookmarkscrim 3d
TheEllieMo I will be working for 3 of the 5 days but I‘ll give it my best shot! 3d
Ruthiella Love it! I‘m in! 👍 2d
Dilara I'm in, why not! I'll be working on the 2nd, but it should be fairly quiet... 26 hours might be overoptimistic, so I'll aim for 26 chapters 😜 2d
Bookwormjillk @Dilara I‘m working on the 2nd too but hoping for a peaceful day so I can still get some reading in. 2d

I‘ve been struggling with reading from a list so I haven‘t done well with #10BeforeTheEnd
Being a mood reader is tough on challenges. 🤦🏾‍♀️

ChaoticMissAdventures I have been struggling too!! End of year is hard but it looks like you ticked a few off so bravo!! 5d

Doh! I completely forgot to post my wrap up for #CandyCaneReadathon. I read a total of 589 pages. I read from 3 different books but only finished one. At least it was a good one. I hope you all had fun too.

Thanks @LiseWorks for hosting.

A correction for Wednesday's number, I forgot to include my ebook totals. Not much read yesterday. I'm trying to finish a challenge and learning that I don't enjoy “having to read“ so even though they are books I picked and am interested in I'm not feeling much reading joy. If I ever needed proof that I am a mood reader I have it. I'm not sure what I'll do for future challenges or even if I'll be able to finish this one.

Chocolate is in the lead with an astounding 43 votes!
Pumpkin and Apple are very close at 14 and 11 votes respectively.
Poor candy corn only has one vote.

Can any snack catch up to chocolate? We shall see!

Wrap up for #Pages4Rest

My weekend ended up being more social than I planned but I managed to finish Undead Girl Gang, start and finish The Weight of Blood and start Lover Forbidden.

All three of these books have proven to have twist that I never saw coming. I love it.

I hope you are feeling better and more rested @DieAReader and I hope everyone else is well rested and had some great reads.

September was super hectic and stressful, but it feels like things are finally starting to calm down and find their equilibrium again! And I'm finally feeling like picking up some books!!! So join me this weekend (Friday-Monday) for a lil readathon. And if you're a part of #HauntedShelf, enjoy a little point stacking as well 😁

ReadingInTheRealWorld @Kiwidragonnerd Just post your tentative reading goals on Thursday or Friday (books, number of pages and/or hours). Then after the readathon, drop a post about your results. (If you are participating in #HauntedShelf, make sure to track the number of hours read between Friday - Monday for extra points.) It's all just for fun though. I'm sure @TheAromaofBooks can give a more thorough explanation. 🤗 3mo
TheAromaofBooks @Mollyanna @AmyG @peanutnine @Seabreeze_Reader - Yay!! Enjoy your reading!! I am hoping to finish two books!!! 3mo
TheAromaofBooks @Kiwidragonnerd - Like @Seabreeze_Reader said, most of the readathons on Litsy (like this one) are pretty low-key - you set your own goals and they can be anything: a certain number of pages you want to read, a certain amount of time you want to spend reading, a certain number of books you'd like to complete, etc. But it's no pressure - just a way to try and inspire people to pick up a book instead of something else over the weekend 😁 3mo
Kiwidragonnerd Ok thanks @TheAromaofBooks and @Seabreeze_Reader for letting me know! I'll definitely be joining :) 3mo

Bookwormjillk The way it works is that in October tag your reviews with the tag that corresponds to your favorite fall treat. The one with the most tags at the end of the month is the official fall snack of Litsy. 3mo

Bookwormjillk @CSeydel You are so right! Who can we write to about this??? 3mo
Bookwormjillk @Faranae I may need to sample some chili chocolate before I can vote responsibly. 3mo
Faranae @Bookwormjillk @CSeydel Marketing departments dropped the word “pie“ and all hell broke loose ever since. It's “pumpkin pie spice“, as in... the spices you put in a pumpkin pie!

And we shall all eat spiced chocolate, for science and/or responsible voting purposes. 😁

Joining in this #TurnThePage readathon that @Bookwormjillk is hosting to end this month on a reading note. I love these readathons.It gives me comfort knowing other Littens are reading along with me. 📚

Repost for @Bookwormjillk

Anyone interested in a #Readathon at the end of the month? October through December are like the reading Olympics for me so I have a few (dozen) books I‘d like to clear out before then.
#TurnThePage starts September 25 and ends September 30. Make your own goals and participate however much feels appropriate to you.
