24B4Monday Readathon discussion

Happy New Year! How is everyone doing?

Our first #24B4Monday readathon is scheduled for January 29 - 31, 2021. New year - new reading goals!

What are your goals for this first readathon? 24 hours? Page goals?

A few things to remember:
These readathons are for you and your goals. While the goal may be to reach 24 hours in 3 days, it is more important to set your own readathon goals. It can more or less time, or a page count goal or number of books to finish. Whatever works for you. Remember the goal is to have fun reading!

Note: The readathons no longer take place on Litsy. There were a few issues, and Tamara decided to leave Litsy. We now have the groups here on GR, Discord, and FB. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or Tamara.

Thanks and have fun planning your goals!

JB #24B4Monday Readathon Goals:

I would like to stretch my limits and really shoot for 24 hours this time. I am not sure which books yet as I am currently in the middle of a few which I hope to finish before the readathon.

I’m going for 16 hours again since I’ll only have 2 days to read.

Setting my goal at 500 pages.

I have a test on Monday so I can't read for long. But I'm gonna aim to complete Digital Minimalism. I have about 300 pages left

I believe this is the first time I have joined this readathon. I doubt I will make it for 24 hours, but I think it will be fun to see how many hours I do get in. I would like to complete my current book and finish one more book.

Yay! Looking forward to this one :-). First time in months I have both the mental space and time available over the weekend. I’m looking forward to finishing the books I had planned for January, which should work out perfectly.

I highly doubt I’ll be able to do the full 24 hours. My goal this time is 9 hours. Crossing my fingers that I have more time.

Happy New year :)
I have been in such a horrifying reading slump for the last few months but I hope to finally pull myself together this weekend.
I want to finish at least one book, hopefully two.

I always forget to track my time, so I'll aim for 500+ pages. I want to make some progress on Robert Jordan's The Eye of the World, and maybe start some sort of mystery or thriller.

This will be my first time participating, so I have no idea wat is a reasonable goal for me. So I will aim for 12 hours this weekend.

this will be my first time participating as well, and since I had a rough week, I'm just going to see if I'm able to finish a book!

Ha! Leuk om jullie hier te zien, Sassy en Elke!

Hi! I'm new here (@maich on Litsy, Maja in real world). Join here because find out that readathon is not on Litsy anymore. I participated last year (not every month) but didn't reach goal 24hours. My record was 22h. I'm a mother of a small girl and a slow reader. Usually reading in the morning orbefore bed time. Will try to read at lest 500pages. Will try to finish The Bright Side of Going Dark which I started today and I also prepared 4 books under 240pages in my native language (slovenian). These readathons help me to stay in reading motivation.

I'm definitely hoping for 24 hours this weekend! I don't have anything planned so I'm really just going to spend time reading. I'm currently reading Rock Chick by Kristen Ashley so I will continue on with the series once I finish!

I think I’m going to try for 16 hrs! I’ve got a lot of free time this weekend, so we’ll see how it goes

I want to complete 2 books this weekend and start Mama Day for Black History Month. That should be about 350+ pages, all in all, that I hope to get through by Monday.

I'm finishing up The Book Thief and One Crazy Summer

I'm hoping for at least 12 hours before Monday.

Great to see ya too ;)

For this readathon I'm just going to try to read as much as possible instead of trying to reach a specific goal.
