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. 😊

BeansPage Andrew this is a great idea but you should make it a scavenger hunt! have people find little items in the books that they read or on the covers 😉 That would be super fun! 5y
Andrew65 @SumisBooks That‘s a great idea! 👍😊😍 5y
Andrew65 @SumisBooks How are you today? 🥰 5y
BeansPage If you want to, I can create a list for a week-long readathon. That way you can have a readathon Easter egg hunt! And I am doing well. Just really tired lately. 5y
julesG @SumisBooks Great idea! 5y
Andrew65 @SumisBooks Yes by all means have a go at that. Make sure you get plenty of rest. So many emotional stresses at the moment. 5y
CocoReads Looking forward to it! 5y

tracey38 I will see what I can do with reading Sunday and next weekend and then during the work week in the evenings! I'll think about a goal for myself tonight and tomorrow. 🙂 5y
Andrew65 @tracey38 I‘m trying to do the same. 5y
JacqMac Yay! I was just thinking today, it would be a good time for a readathon. Sharing. 💕 5y
Andrew65 @JacqMac Thanks, timing hopefully good for people. 5y
TheAromaofBooks Thanks for the tag, Andrew!!! I'm always up for another readathon! 😁 5y
Andrew65 @TheAromaofBooks Be great to have you with us. 😊👍 5y
ravenlee I‘ve been rubbish at timing my reading lately, but I will use this as a challenge to get myself reading every day. I‘ll set my goal as three books, at least one of which is for #bookspin (double or triple). 5y
DieAReader @JacqMac I had a similar thought earlier today myself! I‘m really behind on catching up today so I‘m just seeing this now lol! 5y
DieAReader @Andrew65 I‘m in! 🥳🥰 Thanks so much for the tag! This is definitely what the doctor ordered right now. Pleasurable distractions (books) & focus! Now to think about goals 🧐📚 5y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick I'm in! I'll determine my goals tomorrow. 5y
gradcat @Andrew65 Thanks for the tag! I have to think about goals now...are we supposed to post them? 🤷🏽♀️ 5y
nelehelen I‘m in as well! Can‘t wait! 5y
Cupcake12 I‘m really look forward to taking part as this will be my first “Read-a-thon”. Is there anything I need to do apart from read? 📚 5y
Crazeedi Good morning from PA Andrew! Sorry I havent been on the last while, dizzy spell again, just couldn't. I'll join in for sure! I hope you have a Happy Easter my friend 5y
Crazeedi @EadieB I hear you Eadie 5y

Andrew65 @Cupcake12 Great to have you with us f#or the Readathon, especially if it is your first.Good luck. All you need to do is post what your goal is and possibly some of the stack you hope to read and do some regular posts during the week telling us how you are going. Up to you how regular these posts are, some do one a day others do more regularly, down to individual choice. If you can please tag me into the posts @Andrew65 so I can respond to all👇 5y
Andrew65 @Cupcake12 👆 all posts to encourage you and celebrate your successes and use the #EasterExtravaganza hash tag. 🥰 5y
Andrew65 @Crazeedi Hope you quickly get over these dizzy spells, my wife had a big with these for about a week. So 🤞. Th is have a happy Easter too, and pleased to have you with us. Might help us all with some focus. 🥰 5y
Andrew65 @EadieB Happy Easter to you as well Eadie. 🥰 5y
sudi I want to join, but wanted to now if it's compulsary to track time. 5y
sudi *know 5y
Cupcake12 Thank you @andrew65 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
