From Juliababyjen's Reading Room:
Dana from Danasquare and I are hosting a read-a-thon! It is called the End of the Year 2013 Reading Cram, and will run from Dec. 9-22nd!
If you are anything like me you have a huge stack (or even bookcases) full of book you haven't read. Did you have a goal for how many books you wanted to read during the year? Are you behind like I am?
Then this is the perfect time to read as much as you can before the new year!
Why should you participate?
1. To chisel off some of your TBR pile.
2. Do all the fun challenges and win some prizes.
3. Encourage others to read like a speed demon (and yourself) + reading with others is loads of fun.
So let's get in our last books of 2013 together in the #ReadingCram !

I'm always a sucker for a good readathon. This one has sufficient days for me to actually focus on reading while prepping for and traveling back to Indiana for Christmas. Overall, I'm aiming fairly low as I imagine my life will be super busy after the 15th. My list of books to read is more of pile of suggestions. I definitely will not get to all of them in two weeks.
Goals:
- Read three books
- Read 1000 pages
- Review all books read
- Knock out 5 reading challenge spots
TBR Pile:
- Boneshaker by Cherie Priest
- Tanglefoot by Cherie Priest
- Sandition by Jane Austen
- Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray
- Any of the 4 nonfiction library finds
