My self-imposed goal for #Easterextravaganza was to finish all the books I was reading at the time the readathon started. And I finished my goal! They were all picks but Shadow Land and K-129 were the best. @Andrew65 - Loved this idea for a readathon. No stress with a goal we set ourselves. Thanks for the great idea!

Andrew65 That‘s great, well done! 🍾👏👏👏🙌⭐️ I need to read 5y
Andrew65 Thanks, we do need to do more ‘open‘ readathons as they are more inclusive of everybody. 5y

We are now halfway through the #EasterExtravaganza Readathon. Where did those four days go?

How are you progressing towards your goals?

Andrew65 Page Count : 1913 / 3000 pages read, so above target. Books Read : 3 / 7, slightly off target on this one. (edited) 5y
Birdsong28 I am currently on my 4/5 books so I am on track! 📚 📖 5y

Andrew65 @AnneCecilie Fantastic 👏👏👏🙌 5y
Laughterhp Seriously! Where did those days go! I finished 1 book. Might be able to finish 1 or 2 more (if I focus and stop picking up new books)! 😂 5y
Andrew65 @Laughterhp That can be my problem too. Think got 4 on the go at the moment. 🤔 Good luck with the rest of the Readathon. (edited) 5y
Bookzombie You are doing great, Andrew! I‘m at 525/1098 pages, just shy of halfway. I now have tomorrow off and plan to read a lot. 5y
Andrew65 @Bookzombie Thanks, and that‘s great. Looks like you will get to your goal. 👏👏👏 5y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I feel a bit behind due to some unexpected bookings at work, but I caught up on my daily chapter of Little Women. I finished STAGS but I'm still a little short on the 50 additional pages daily. I should be able to make it up over the weekend. 5y
Andrew65 @Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Good luck, and that‘s not far behind given work, good luck with the rest of the Readathon. 👏👏👏 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 Did a lot of reading last night. 5y

EadieB @Andrew65 Yes doing audio so that makes for an easier read. 5y
Andrew65 @EadieB Yes, if I get to this one will also be doing by audio. 5y
EadieB @Andrew65 Classics are not always an easy read but audio is the best way to go. 5y
Andrew65 @EadieB That‘s how I prefer my classics. Loved the Tim Rice (and others) version of Dracula, and Frankenstein was also good in this format. I enjoyed Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton, but not so much Summer. Still need to write reviews for these. 5y
EadieB @Andrew65 I liked Ethan Frome too. I had a copy of that Summer Before War book but got rid of it. Knew there were way too many books that I would read before that one. Looks like it was a good decision. The library had a copy so if I ever wanted to read it, I could. (edited) 5y

Jumping into the #EasterExtravaganza hosted by @Andrew65

I‘m still struggling with reading so my goal is going to be very simple - read at least a chapter or two every day.

Andrew65 Great goal to get you back into a reading habit. It has been difficult for all of us to focus on reading where the world has shifted off its axis. Good luck. 😊👍 5y
janeycanuck @Andrew65 thanks... I spent almost my entire day reading yesterday so off to a good start but who knows what the news will bring! Thank you for organizing!! 5y
Andrew65 @janeycanuck I‘ve spent today totally ignoring news and have had the best reading day in a while, helped by a very good book. 5y

Since I am working 4 days of this week. I am going to set a goal of 4 books. I am struggling to read and struggling to sleep...not struggling to eat though! Maybe this will put me back on track @Andrew65

KristiAhlers I‘m struggling to sleep too. I‘ll set my goal of reading 5 books. 5y
Reecaspieces @Katbooklover which is why I am up and 1 am on Litsy 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️! Good luck!! We got this!! 5y

I will be reading these books this week for the Readathon. Hoping my concentration will return!

Andrew65 Great choices 👏😊👍 5y
EadieB @Andrew65 Didn't know for sure if you were doing these group reads - Stone Cold (15th) or Chestnut Street (19th). 5y
Andrew65 Yes we will start Chestnut Street on 19th, I have lost most of the last month! 😳🤪🤯 Will still be doing Stone Cold, think we said to start on Wednesday, but need to check. Thanks to the National Emergency Library I have got hold of a copy. 5y

I‘m setting up a Readathon to help see us through Easter and the worldwide lockdowns! #EasterExtravaganza

This will run from Easter Sunday, until the following Sunday. Set your own goals to work towards on the Readathon whether it‘s the time you will be reading, the number of books you want to read, the number of pages you want to read or a mixture of these or other ideas.

Hope you will join!

Please share this post to get it spread widely. 😊

sudi I want to join, but wanted to now if it's compulsary to track time. 5y
sudi *know 5y
Andrew65 @sudi Most definitely not, no need to track time at all as I know this can put some off. Just set your own target, it could be to read a set number of books, it could be to read every day, read books of a particular author, read books off your TBR. The world‘s your oyster. Very relaxed and low key Readathon to suit your own circumstances. Hope you join us and have fun. 🥰 (edited) 5y
EadieB @Andrew65 Happy Easter! I'm watching Montalbano on the TV same as @Crezeedi. It's in subtitles so I'm learning Italian too! I'll have to start reading the books. Crazeedi suggests audios and my library does have the audios so that's a good suggestion. 5y
Andrew65 @Cupcake12 You‘re welcome. 😊 5y
sudi @Andrew65 that's great, i'm definitely joining in now. This seems fun, especially finding the easter eggs 😊. Thank you for hosting ❤ 5y
Andrew65 @EadieB I‘m rewatching some classic cricket on YouTube. Hence delay in some responses today. 🐣 The books are wonderful! A real treat ahead! Never heard the audios so will have to try them. 5y
Andrew65 @sudi That‘s the most important thing to have fun. 5y
EadieB @Andrew65 Good way to relax watching something that you enjoy! The 1st video was called A Diary from 1943 but that is not a title of any of the books so I don't know what book it is from. Oh well! I'll just have to listen/read them and find out! 5y
Andrew65 @EadieB No I can‘t think where that fits. Possibly a question for @Crazeedi as she has read them more recently than me. 5y
EadieB @Andrew65 I will check with @Crazeedi. Thanks! 5y
Crazeedi @EadieB really? On Mhztv episode 1 is the snack thief. The one you said is episode 34, and I think it's something extra done on the tv, it's not a book, at least not one translated to english yet. Theres like 6 or so that havent been translated. Are you watching them in order? 5y
EadieB @Crazeedi Only watched episode 1 5y
Andrew65 @Crazeedi Thanks for that information, good to hear 6 untranslated books, hopefully they will be. 🤞 5y
GHABI4ROSES YAY! Joining, DUH! Thanks for including me, I will post my reading goals. @SquidgetsRoom 5y
Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES Good luck. 😊 5y
gradcat @Andrew65 I‘m sorry—I messed up as usual. I think I‘m out for a bit...I‘m really not feeling well, and I‘m struggling to read & type at the moment...I hope you had a lovely Easter. 🐣 ♥️ 5y
