Beat the Heat Readathon

07.29.2013

So sorry for not posting!  I was on vacation!  I did get to read a bunch so today I’ll be posting several times to make up! 🙂

I just signed up for this short summer readathon!  I’m hoping that it will drive me to read at a bit of a faster pace, considering the amount of books already stacked on my nightstand has managed to spill beyond! 🙂
The Readathon starts today, but first I’d like to share my goals!
Goals:

  • Read Roughly 1 and 1/2 books a day.  That’s really a stretch for me, but some of my summer activities are winding down so I might have a bit more time on my hands.  The List consists of:

The Miseducation of Cameron Post by Emily M. Danforth

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
Camp by Elaine Wolf
Trash Can Days: A Middle School Saga by Teddy Steinkellner
Animal Farm by George Orwell
Geektastic: Stories from the Nerd Herd (Edited) by Holly Black and Cecil Castellucci
Through the Skylight by Ian Baucom
Rebel Angels by Libba Bray
Divergent by Veronica Roth (Re-Read)
Jaws by Peter Benchley
Nantucket Blue by Leila Howland
Pieces of Us by Margie Gelbwasser
Messenger by Lois Lowry
Tiger’s Quest by Colleen Houck
Revenge of the Girl with the Great Personality by Elizabeth Eulberg
Level 2 by Lenore Appelhans
The Book Theif by Markus Zusak
Accomplice by Eireann Corrigan
Starters by Lissa Price
Bewitching by Alex Flinn
Insurgent by Veronica Roth
This list is mighty long!  Don’t count on my getting all the way through, but I bet I’ll get pretty darn close!
Progress:

Here’s how I’ll track my progress this first week!

    Wow that is certainly a lot of books. I have yet to read Divergent and Revenge of the Girl with the Great Personality even though I own both of them.

    Good luck getting through you pile.
    Happy reading!

    Oh my goodness! I wish I could read that much in such a short amount of time! My goal of 10 books will be a push for me. Good luck and thanks for joining! 🙂
