•REG OPENS: Sun., Nov. 24 @ 6pm (EST)•
#AuldLangSpine is an annual reading event, which technically begins January 1 but there‘s a lot of lead-up. 🙃 Space is limited.
When sign-ups go live, you‘ll fill out a Google Form including a list of 7-20 of your favorite reads from the past year. I play matchmaker & very intentionally pair you with another Litten (based on genre preferences, etc). You begin the New Year by reading from your match‘s list.
monalyisha It‘s designed to be a cost-free way to connect. Once I send you the list, you put together your stack on your own (whether you visit the library or purchase the titles is up to you). This is a labor of love! I don‘t make spreadsheets for just anything or anyone. 😅 I know our community enjoys it, so the work continues! I get a lot out of it, too…even if I usually forget the finer details of what I‘ve read by the time January rolls around. (edited) 1w

Billypar Very exciting! I feel like both my reading and Litsy time hasn't been at the usual level lately, so hoping to reverse both of those trends during this year's event. Thanks for coordinating again! 7d

KadaGul This was my first time participating in #AudLangSpine2024, and I had a great time exploring a whole new world 🌎 of literature by checking out someone else's reading list. It‘s wild how finding new authors in genres I already know can bring so much excitement and fun! I can't wait to sign up for #AudLangSpine2025. I'm so glad I was paired with @Read4life. #AudLangSpine2024 4d
