Hello!!! So, I’ve decided to join another Read-a-Thon!!! This time is the Tackle your TBR Read-a-thon, hosted by Wishful Endings. This might be totally crazy, given that this week I have a presentation about the progress of my PhD, and I’m leaving on Friday to go home, and I expect the next week to be a little hectic! Between friends, my brother in Lisbon, my nieces still on vacation,…, I don’t know how I’ll find the time to read. But I need to finish my TBR for this month and then some, so I decided that maybe this is exactly what I need.
The Tackle Your TBR Read-a-thon begins Monday, September 14th and ends Sunday, September 27th, with a wrap-up (including giveaway winners) on September 28th. You do not have to be a blogger to sign up. Just use your Goodreads, Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, or Tumblr, or leave a comment stating that you’ll just post updates on my blog commenting on my updates instead (just pick a place you’re going to post updates on). For the linky, you need to leave a link (so if you’re going to post on my blog, then leave the link to my blog, but your email so that I have a way to reach you). When the read-a-thon officially begins, you all will have a chance to add a sign-up/goals post (or leave it in comments in response to mine when that goes up on September 14th).
What can you read as part of the read-a-thon? Anything. It can be an audiobook, ebook, physical book, published, ARC, etc. There are no restrictions. The idea is to lower our TBR piles and any way you want to do that is just fine by me.
My Goals:
- Finish my September TBR, which means reading Queen of Shadows (doing a buddy read – check the GR group 😀 ), An Infinite Number Of Parallel Universes and Finding Perfect. (Because I’ll finish The Assassin’s Blade today)
- Read at least 2 other ARCs – which ones will depend on my mood;
- Participate in 5 challenges;
- Find some new exciting blogs to follow.
I’ll keep this laid back, because I don’t expect to have that much time this next couple of weeks, and I suspect that most of my reading will be done on the airport and planes while I’m going to and from home. Let’s see how it goes 😀 !!!
Good luck! 🙂
thank u 😉
Oooo a lot to do! Good luck 🙂
thank u 😀
And you still find time for your blog! You’re awesome! 🙂
And you still find time for your blog after such tight schedule! You’re awesome! 🙂
it might be that I neglect some other stuff at times 😛 lol, next week I won’t be working, just being with the family though
Have loads of fun! 🙂
thank u XD
Looks like a great goal.. Good luck
thank you 🙂
You’re not totally crazy–you’re a reader! LOL, we’re all a bit crazy like that. Have fun shrinking that TBR pile.
lol 😉 good to know
This sounds like a great idea! I keep staring at my TBR list and then picking something not on it to read! 😉 Good luck!
thank you 🙂
Reading on planes and airports is a good idea. I’ve got a busy week of the Norwich Crime Festival (Noirwich) after which I might catch up 🙂 Have fun!
thank you 🙂
Ahh this reminds me—I need to do one too! Haha it’s been only a few weeks since my last readathon, but I have so many arcs to read 🙂 Good luck, although you won’t need it 😀
Great goals! I love how you incorporate what you already have going on. Buddy reads are fun! 🙂
thank you 🙂
it’ll be my first buddy read 🙂
I’ve got Finding Perfect on my kindle to read, but didn’t add it for this RAT. And I’ve got to read Queen of Shadows as well, but probably later this month. Happy reading even with all the hectic craziness!
thank you 🙂
