High Summer Read-A-Thon Monday, July 18 - Sunday, July 24, 2016



I learned about the High Summer Read-A-Thon from Vonnie at Vonnie's Reading Corner. I love participating in read-a-thons so thought I'd go ahead a sign up for this one as well.

The High Summer Read-A-Thon is hosted by Seasons of Reading. It's a pretty laid back read-a-thon, which suits me just fine! Here's a brief overview of the High Summer Read-A-Thon from the Seasons of Reading website:
Dates are July 18 - 24, starting at 12:00am Monday and ending at 11:59pm on Sunday. That's central time (U.S.), but you can adjust your times according to your time zone. Of course, like most read-a-thons, the books read must be novels or novellas, adult or young adult are fine, and you can read children's books too (as long as you do read some novels too). Note: Non-Fiction is also okay! You DO NOT have to participate the entire week. Join in when you can, start in the middle, end early...whatever works best for your schedule. As with all of my read-a-thons, it will be a week of relaxed reading during which we can personally challenge ourselves and whittle away that ever looming TBR.
Since I have three physical books I've begun reading, but haven't finished reading I'm choosing to finish reading them during the High Summer Read-A-Thon. The books I'll be finishing (hopefully) are titled:

1. Hard Cold Winter by Glen Erik Hamilton
2. The Fortune Cookie Chronicles: Adventures in the World of Chinese Food by Jennifer 8 Lee
3. Eat Dirt: Why Leaky Gut May Be the Root Cause of Your Health Problems and 5 Surprising Steps to Cure It by Josh Axe

  1. Good luck on finishing your reads. I have a feeling that I'll be doing that with two books for the read-a-thon. I don't think I'll be able to finish them today.

    1. Thank you for the support. Having fun so far with this read-a-thon even if the 1st book I've read for this read-a-thon wasn't mentioned in my read-a-thon goals.
