In order to increase interaction and participation within four of the perpetual reading challenges I host, I've decided to host this MEGA read-a-long event. Although this event was designed around the four respective reading challenges, you do not have to sign up for any of them to join in on the read-a-longs (although I would welcome anyone to sign up).
The hub for the entire event will be here at The True Book Addict, but the individual read-a-longs will be hosted at their respective blogs (I will list those below) and The Fantasy Project read-a-long will be dually hosted at its blog and at its Goodreads group. As the hub for the event, I will create a page listing all the reading schedules and links to the blogs which can be accessed in the menu bar at the top of the blog.
Here is the awesome button I created for the event:
So, here is the schedule of read-a-longs and their respective blog urls:
June 2015: A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray - hosted at Goodreads group and at http://101fantasychallenge.blogspot.com/
July/August 2015: The Covenant by James A. Michener - hosted at http://themichenerchallenge.blogspot.com
September 2015: The Wolf Gift by Anne Rice - hosted at https://annericeneverends.wordpress.com/
October 2015: Salem's Lot by Stephen King - hosted at http://skchallenge.blogspot.com/
Stay tuned. I will be posting the read-a-long schedules in the menu page up top in a few days.
I hope you will join me for one, or all, of the read-a-longs!

I will think about joining in on one, Michelle. As you know, I'm signed up for your Goodreads read-along but no one seems to post on Goodreads, they use twitter which I don't use anymore, so I feel that I have no one to talk to. If you can get more people to either comment here on your blog or on Goodreads, I will be open to reading along :) Please don't take this as a criticism of you-- no way! You are trying hard to keep everyone happy and I appreciate it.
ReplyDeleteOh goodie - just the kick in the butt I need to get back to Michener!
ReplyDeleteHi Michelle! I was included in your Christmas exchange with my Daughter - Tasha. I think the person that sent a gift was Carol. I would like to tell her "Thank You!! for the gift. If you can, please let Carol know that I did enjoy my gift!!
ReplyDeleteHi Chris, I will definitely let her know, but if you're on Facebook, you can post it in the Facebook event here: https://www.facebook.com/events/1525338461118335/
