Repost for @Andrew65 :

Almost time for the #24B4Readathon For Oct - can‘t wait. Hope you‘re ready to play along, if you are please post below or repost to let us know.
I will be sponsoring #TeamSlaughter during the #Readathon, simply because I love her books more than I like the Bram Stoker books. Not a fan of horror or scary books so will be reading my usual fare of mysteries, suspense & thrillers, alongside my other eclectic reading choices.

Come-read-with-me @Andrew65 Thanks for the info! 5y

Bookwormjillk Can‘t wait for Friday! 5y

Clwojick Yeahhhhhh! 5y

Andrew65 @Clwojick 😁 5y

Andrew65 @Bookwormjillk Should be a great weekend, now to get there! 5y

ATB I am in. This will be my first #24B4Monday. 5y

Andrew65 @ATB Be great to have you with us. I‘m sure you‘ll enjoy it and get hooked like the rest of us. 😁👍😊 5y

tdrosebud I'm playing! Unlike last month, I couldn't take the weekend off and will be working. My goal is to get in the double digits. 5y

Crazeedi Wint be joining in, just getting home, unpacking etc... 5y

Andrew65 @Crazeedi You‘ll be missed. 😔 Hope you have a good and uneventful journey. (edited) 5y

Andrew65 @tdrosebud Great to have you with us and good luck with the target. 5y

ravenlee I‘m in! Sponsoring #teamstoker though I will likely only be reading Friday and Sunday. Family time on Saturday. 5y

Andrew65 @ravenlee Great to have you playing along. Good luck. 😊👍 5y

Lizpixie What time zone do you guys normally start at? I‘ve been following my Australian time zone but I wanted to play along with everyone else this time 5y

Andrew65 @Lizpixie Most people do it in their own time zone. Obviously we have a few who tend to play along in Australia small group playing along on the GMT time zone in the UK (like me) and European time zones (especially Germany and Finland). Then the majority who do it in the US/Canada time zone. It works well with me leading from the U.K. and @TheReadingMermaid and @jb72 leading from US. This means usually someone commenting through most time zones. (edited) 5y

Andrew65 @Lizpixie I tend to answer posts until 1 am GMT most days, possibly later in the morning on Saturday / Sunday morning. Then just a small fallow period ( 2 or 3 hours) after our US friends go to bed and before I get up. Luckily I am a night owl. Not sure if this helps you or not. 😂 5y

TheBookDream I want to participate in 24B4Monday! 5y

Andrew65 @TheBookDream Will be great to have you with us. As I said in the other post all you need to do is do some regular posts telling us what you‘re reading and how you are progressing time wise. I look forward to seeing your posts. 😊👍 5y

The July #24B4Monday Readathon is rapidly approaching, just over 48 hours to go. Leave a message below to let us know if you are taking part and what your target is.

This is great fun every month, no matter what total you get to, it is very informal so why not join us whether new to the challenge or one of our regulars! You know you want to. 😊👍😎🥳

Feel free to repost.

Andrew65 I‘m off work and on a reading holiday, so I am targeting 30 hours and finishing 4 books, although not sure I can get to that total! 6y

jb72 @Andrew65 wow! That is an amazing goal! 6y

Andrew65 @jb72 Going for it this month! 😳🤞 6y

ShananigansReads I am in. Not sure what my target will be yet but thinking it‘s a good idea to tell the family I‘m going to hermit this weekend so I can participate. 😉 6y

wanderinglynn I‘m in! Just going to try to hit the 24hr mark, however many books that may be. 6y

suzie.reads I'm going to join in this weekend 😊 got a quiet weekend planned as we go on holiday the following week. 6y

Andrew65 @Bookjunkie57 😂😂😂 Sounds a plan! 6y

Andrew65 @wanderinglynn Good luck with that target. 😊 6y

Andrew65 @suzie.reads Great to have you with us. 😊 6y

Rissa1 I am in! I seem to never hit the 24 hour mark, the most ever was almost 14. I am shooting to beat that. 6y

rjsthumbelina Totally in this time. I only work 17 hours during this one! It sounds like more when I write it out, but the last few I have worked ALL weekend, so maybe I can come close this time! 6y

Andrew65 @Rissa1 That would be a great achievement! 😊 (edited) 6y

Andrew65 @rjsthumbelina Good luck, I look forward to seeing your progress. 👍 6y

LogiKitty Sure am thinking about joining this weekend! I'm thinking I'll aim for at least 15 hours (: 6y

Andrew65 @LogiKitty That‘s great 😊👍, hope you do join us. (edited) 6y

rwmg So, how do these readathons work? 6y

DGRachel I‘m going to try again with a goal of finishing Vengeful and at least two of my library books. 🤞🏻 6y

CocoReads I‘m off this weekend but have things going on but I‘ll shoot for 12 hours and 2 books finished. 6y

Butterfinger I am doing it. 6y

JazzFeathers I'm in. I'll be bold and say l want to read two book (the one l'm starting today and another one)... though l'll probably just read one. 6y

Andrew65 @rwmg This is a fun Readathon and quite informal. Just post over Friday - Sunday about the books and time you have read using the hashtag #24B4Readathon. If you get to 24 hours great, but many just set their own target time and see how far they can get. Key thing is to have fun doing it and sharing your progress with other Littens. Hope you will join us. 😊👍 6y

Andrew65 @DGRachel Great targets. 😊👍 6y

Andrew65 @CocoReads Great targets, good luck. 😊👍 6y

Andrew65 @Butterfinger Great to have you with us. 😊👍 6y

Andrew65 @JazzFeathers Good luck with getting to your target. 😊👍 (edited) 6y

rwmg @Andrew65 Do I use my time zone or are we all following the same one? 6y

Andrew65 @rwmg No we all use our own time zones, makes it much simpler. Hosts in both U.K. and US so works well. 6y

La_Cori I'm in! I'll aim for 18 hours, at least, and 3 books (the one that I'm reading and two from my july TBR)🤞 6y

AnneCecilie 🙋‍♀️ I haven‘t decided on a time yet. I just want to read as much as possible 6y

Andrew65 @La_Cori That‘s a great target. Good luck with that. 😊👍 6y

Andrew65 @AnneCecilie Great to have you with us, and that‘s a great aim.😊👍 (edited) 6y

TheAromaofBooks I've never tried a Readathon before, so I am aiming for the 24 hours and we will see what happens!! 6y

Andrew65 @TheAromaofBooks Good luck, and great to have you with us. 👍😊 6y

rwmg @Andrew65 OK count me in. Never having done one before I have no idea what is a realistic goal but I will say 14 hours. 6y

Andrew65 @rwmg Great, good luck, being involved and having fun is far more important than the tine got to. 😊👍 (edited) 6y

tammysue It‘s been awhile since I participated and I‘ve missed you guys!! 💖 I‘m in and going for the full 24 hours.🤞🏻 6y

Andrew65 @tammysue Great to have you back with us again. 😊👏, good luck with the 24 hour target. 👍 6y

I already deviated from my #24B4Readathon. I‘d forgotten about hVing not yet finishing this one. Tonight I finished. It‘s an epic with lots of interesting themes. I‘ll likely not forget these characters anytime soon, but it wasn‘t a book I couldn‘t put down. Only 3:5 ⭐️. But the writing is lovely. #mayMadness

Finished #2.

Clwojick, RadicalReader, Andrew65, BeansPage

BeansPage Nice!!! 👍😃👍 6y

Andrew65 Same for me, I started this a few months ago but not felt the desire to pick it up and finish it. So well done. 👏 6y
