Original Read-A-Thon
RiverMoose’s ARC TBR Takedown Read-A-Thon
Sign-Ups –
May 14th – end of Read-A-Thon (July 31st) 2017
When:
June 1st – July 31st
What:
Read as many arc/review copies off your TBR as you can.
I’m starting this Read-A-Thon because I have an avalanche of arcs to get through (I have an over requesting on Netgalley problem) and I think it’ll motivate me.
I also really love participating in Read-A-Thons, its fun to motivate each other, but most Read-A-Thons are inconveniently timed for me – so I thought by making my own, it would fit my problem and my timing. I figured i’m not the only when, so I’m making a real Read-A-Thon.
What do you think?
Please join me!
All information below!
Leave me a comment down below with a link to your blog if you want to join me!
Rules:
-Each book that counts must be an arc or review copy sent to you by an author, publisher, bookstore or review site like Netgalley.
-Can be ebook or physical or audiobook.
-Any genre.
-Must be reviewed within the Read-A-Thon time frame (or, confirm review written and scheduled for release day).
-Everyone welcome to join.
-Non-review copy/arc reads will only count if you are COMPLETELY caught up on your arc/review copy TBR AND they are backlogged books (out a year +) (Also applies for those who want to participate but don’t have any ARCs).
-Leave a comment on this post to sign up – will edit with masterlist.
-NO REQUESTING NEW ARCS DURING THE READ-A-THON, IT DEFEATS THE PURPOSE. I mean, if its one you’re dying for I guess I can’t stop you but seriously.
