It's no problem at all, I really enjoy doing the readathons.

The June readathon will be taking place from the 28th June to the 30th June, I wish I could say I would have distractions that weekend, but fingers crossed I will have a litter coming that Saturday.
For once, I've actually copied my spreadsheet over, just waiting on some last minute totals before I can give the final number. The final day to do this will be Thursday.

*An easy way to keep track is using the Currently Reading feature on Goodreads, entering your page number at the end of each day. **For those who read by eReader, take the page number which shows for paperback/hardcover here on Goodreads for your total. Calculate by percentage to work out your page number read.
***For audio listeners, check out how many pages the book has on Goodreads, then divide that number by how many CDs or hours it is to give you an idea of pages per time. Don't forget to post your totals of daily or full weekend tally on the thread.
