Beat the Heat Readathon - Kickoff and Goals!






Welcome to the kick off for the Beat the Heat Readathon that's being hosted by the wonderful ladies at Auntie Spinelli Reads and Phantasmic Reads! I'm joining in at the last minute because I seriously need to get some review books read and what is more fun that a readathon?

There's still plenty of time to sign up - so what are you waiting for? Here are the official rules for the readathon, taken from the hosts themselves:


  • The Beat the Heat Readathon runs from July 29th through August 11th. What does this readathon entail, you ask? Well, read as much or as little as you want – the main point is to READ! You set your own goal, and for two weeks you read as many books as you can/want to reach your goal!
  • There will be mini-challenges throughout the Readathon for participants, along with a grand prize giveaway at the end!
  • Sign up at Auntie Spinelli Reads or Phantasmic Reads. You may join whenever you like, but to be eligible for our grand prize giveaway, you must sign up by August 5th.
  • To join, all you have to do is make a sign-up post – even if it’s just a “Let’s do this!” thing – and add your post URL to the linky below! You can put your goals and progress (will be required for the final giveaway) in your sign-up post, or you can make it separate. Totally up to you! Feel free to copy and paste this handy little list for your post. We don’t mind. :)
  • In order to enter for the grand prize, you must have a post to keep track of your progress so we can see that you participated.


Normally I have a list or picture showing what books I hope to read during the readathon, so here's a small taste of what I hope to read:
