Note: This time of year is always very busy for me. Last year, I hadn't really started blogging yet, so I was able to keep myself above the craziness. This year, I am. My blog is slightly inactive due to the holiday craze. Hopefully will return to the regular posting after the new year. :)

Readathon!

  On June 4th, Tiffany King, Missy, Rachel, Jaime, Patricia, and I are hosting a readathon. We've tried to make this as fun as possible, so there will be prizes, trivia, and more! Below is the signup sheet.






For the Prizes:

We will be giving away several prizes. Each hour, we will be asking trivia questions. The first response we get to said question will win a prize.

Also, for a few determined people, there are a few other ways to win stuff.

These people will win something:

The person who reads the most.
The person who reads the longest.


The Grand Prize winner:

One lucky readathoner will be randomly selected from the signup sheet. This Person will get to pick first, from all the stuff. 

How Prizes will be divided up:

The Grand Prize winner will be the first to select a prize. Then the person who reads the longest, and then the person who reads the most. After that, the trivia winners will select in the order of the trivia questions.

Ex.
Sally won the first trvia question. Jim won the second. Sally will pick before Jim.


RULES:
  1. You can read anything you like, including ARC's.
  2. NO SPOILERS! Please don't spoil a book for the rest of us.
  3. You MUST sign up. If you do not sign up, then you are not eligible for the giveaways.
  4. You must be at least 13 to participate in the giveaways. Also, please have your parents permission if you are under 18.
  5. All prizes are being donated. The person who donated said item will decide where they will ship. It will be added to the list.
  6. If you donate something, please make sure it is book related. (Ex. Don't donate a pair of shoes.)

Remember to have fun and spread the word!



    What I'll be reading

    So, I shockingly did not buy anything. Since I did not buy anything, I can't really post an IMM. But I want to post today. Therefore, this is what I came up with.

    I have quite a lot I'd like to finish soon. Here they are, in order from when I'll be reading them.

    I'll be reading(finishing..) this one first because I'm the furthest into it.

    I'll be reading this one after Half-Blood, because it's the one I'm second furthest in.

    I have a galley of this, so I'm trying to read it before time runs out.

    Another Galley.

    For review. I only have access to this while I am at home, so I'll be reading it while reading other stuff.


    What are you planning on reading?
