From Colorimetry:

The Tackle Your TBR Read-a-thon begins September 8th and ends September 21st. You do not have to be a blogger to sign up. Just use your Goodreads, Twitter, Facebook, or Tumblr profile instead (the place you're going to post updates on).

Please sign up by using the linky at the end of this post.You MUST be signed up in the linky to enter the giveaways and participate in the challenges.The linky will close half-way through the read-a-thon, on September 16th, so sign up before then.

You're welcome to participate as much or as little as you'd like. The read-a-thon is to encourage us all to read so that we can tackle those TBR piles, not to cause extra stress. ;) You will see requests for updates about every other day at the end of specific posts, but again, there are no requirements that you do it.

Tressa will be posting daily updates on her blog and you can come and leave a link or comment to update on her post as you would like. We will be using hashtag #TackleTBR on Twitter for updates and tweets. This is also a great way to find others participating and give some encouragement. There will be a grand prize giveaway with multiple winners sponsored by the hosts that will end on September 22nd.

A low-key long readathon to focus on my stacks... I love the idea!  My actual TBR pile is hundreds of books packed in boxes, but I'm going to focus on a more manageable pile from my short bookcase.

Goals:

  • Read at least 7 books
  • or Read at least 2000 pages
  • Knock out at least 10 reading challenge spots

TBR Pile:

  • Storm Glass by Maria Snyder
  • Bachelor Girl by Betty Israel
  • Cotillion by Georgette Heyer
  • Gale Force by Rachel Caine
  • Gulliver’s Travels by Jonathan Swift
  • Winnie the Pooh by A.A. Milne
  • The Angel's Game by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
