I originally heard about this readathon on iloveheartlandx @ bookloversblog, though it is hosted by Val @ The Innocent Smiley and Ely @ A Book So Fathomless. I’ve never done a readathon before but this one coincided perfectly with my library hold hiatus (basically I don’t take out any library books for a two week period so I can concentrate on books I have purchased). And I also recently joined Twitter (late to the party, I know) so I really wanted to try this more interactive challenge!
- When is it? July 20th (8am) until July 27th (12am)
- Tag? #MakeMeRead
- How does it work? Make a list of books you want to read and then have your friends vote! You will then read the books in order of highest to lowest votes.
- My Goal: Read 5 of the below books!
- Why I need your help? I need your help voting for what books I should read!
Here are the books I randomly selected from my TBR jar:
You may have never heard of some of these books but I ask that you please vote anyway! Just vote for your favourite cover 😉
RESULTS (In Reading Order):
If you are doing this challenge, leave a link to your post and I will gladly vote for your picks!
Thank you in advance for you vote! I really appreciate it!
I’m new to read-a-thons myself! I voted for Love, Rosie, as it’s on my to-read list as well. Lady Thief looks cool, so I threw in a vote for it, too. 🙂
Thank you for voting! I hope your readathon goes well!
I’m doing this readathon, too! I really like the concept and I love the voting part 😀
Me too! The voting is a great spin and what really drew me to do this one! Good luck with yours!
I’m participating! I’m getting excited about it. https://theohiboka.wordpress.com/2015/07/15/makemereadit/ Here’s my post about the readathon.Waiting for your votes 🙂
Best of luck with this readathon! I’m going to vote for yours right now!
Lady Thief is the only one I’ve heard of so I voted for it 😀 I’ve only done 1 readathon and I don’t have any tips haha. Just read and have fun!
Having fun sounds like a great tip—and one I will probably need to be reminded of so I don’t focus too much on the stats of it all 😀
Torrent is the one I voted for mainly because that cover is hot! I’m a sucker for men with tribal tattoos haha I hope you enjoy this readathon 🙂
Here’s my poll.
Right? I love the cover for Torrent too!
Good Luck with yours as well!
I voted for Torrent because…..well that’s obvious lol!! Here is a link to my post if you get a chance to vote. I’m late to the party lol.
