Reading Sprints and Readathons discussion

Hi, all! Welcome to the group. Hope you're all able to get a lot of reading done and get motivation from our many reading sprints and readathons. Please introduce yourself here. :)

I'll start. My name is Michelle, reading sprints and readathons are two of my favourite things in the world and I wanted to have it all in one place together and happy where other people who love these things as much as I do can also join the fun. (:

That's the goal! haha hopefully one day we'll have non stop sprints so that we can all join and read when we're able to :D

Imagine all the different sprints going on over the different threads XD What a mess. I'm going to try partake in all of them so I'll have different tabs in my book relating to which length of sprint each page was that I started on XD

That's great. I definitely plan on procrastinating in real life so I can participate in all the sprints, too xD.

Hello! I'm Trinity, living in Florida. It's been awhile since I've been able to read due to just well life lol but I'm ready to be back and get through lots of books with the help of these sprints!

Hi! My name's Amanda. I'm 34 & live in New Brunswick CA. I am a major book nerd who lives to read & listen to music. I am currently off work for health related issues and therefore have more time than I know what to do with as far as growing my obsession for both books & music. I love doing sprints and Readathons. I have only ever done a few buddy reads (most in HS, a long time ago lol) but would be interested in getting more out of my books (so to speak) by discussing them with people. Bring on the Sprints!

Hello everyone! My name is Katie and I live in TN and I love readathons and sprints!

Hey everyone. I'm Hope form PA. I'm excited to tackle my huge TBR during the sprints and readathons!

Hi I'm Stephanie. I'm from Mass. I love trying to tame my TBR shelf with sprints and once in a while, readathons. I can almost never pick my next read, so i doing monthly Pick It For Me Reads. I'd love to host one if the mod says it's ok.

Hello everyone. I am Ashley and I am new to reading sprints and readathons but I am really excited to give it a try.

Hi everyone Im Thabiya if thats a mouth full you can call me Tabby. I am from Australia. Im happy that i came across this group. Having just participated in the Reading Rush Readathon im excited for this.

Hi! I have just found this group :) I'm Pauliina, 24 years old, originally from Finland but I have lived in the UK for 6 years now. I love sprints and readathons (I'm also a cohost of Currentathon where I aspire to do a bunch of sprints hah). Can't wait to sprint with you all!

Hi people! I’m Isabella, but you can call me izzi or Bella. I am 13 years old currently, but I would say that I have a fairly mature mind. I look forward to some nice sprinting with everyone, and you will mostly catch me on medium sprints. I occasionally like long sprints but only if I have time which is very rare. I also go to short sprints, but I feel that it isn’t enough time to sink into a story. So medium is my choice. Anyways, see ya!

Hi everyone! I'm Jade! I'm 20 years old and I'm a broke college student who spends way too much money on coffee. I've recently developed a love for reading sprints! A few of my other friends are in this group and I thought I would give it a try!

HOORAY! Welcome! I am with you on the Coffee AND Sprints. I use the Sprints for studies, too, so try it out with us sometime!

Hi folks. I go by Aptasi in fandom but you can also use ECH. I love readathons, challenges, and sprints and am looking for a place to do them on goodreads because right now other social media stresses me way out.

Hey ya'll. My name is Autumn, and was referred by Susan to join. I am greatly motivated by reading sprints (one of the only ways to stay interested in a book imo), and excited there is a group on Goodreads dedicated to it!

I am 25 years old, from Seattle, WA, attending college, and love to cook. My favorite genres are fantasy, suspense, historical fiction, occasional nonfiction, and a sprinkle of romance. I prefer my read sprints from 10-30 minutes, because after that my mind starts to wonder.

Can't wait to read with ya'll!

Hooray and WELCOME!

Hiiiiiii! My name is Keianna, but some people call me Kei or Kitten. You can call me either of the three. Reading sprints and readathons are the only thing that will push my ass to read a lot lol.
