A Winter's Respite Readathon: Wrap Up

After a week of mini challenges and lurking on Twitter, A Winter's Respite Readathon hosted by Michelle over at The True Book Addict is over!

I remember posting a list of books that I would want to read during this week... And I didn't finish any of those. Oops! It's because something awesome came into my mail this week, and I read that instead.

My goal was to read at least 400 pages during this pretty busy week, and I'm proud that I actually went over that. In the end, this is what I read:
That makes a total of 677 pages during Winter's Respite!

I also won a book during the challenge:


I've seen this book around on some blogs, and would like to give it a try. Thank you Michelle for hosting the readathon and making it a fun week!

A Winter's Respite Readathon: Sign Up

So I'm signing up for yet another readathon...

The True Book Addict is hosting the Winter's Respite readathon. It runs from January 23rd to 29th, with a big bunch of mini-challenges and giveaways. You can also converse with other readathoners using the #wintersrespite hashtag.

You can still sign up, so go over here and join in!

I might not have as much time to participate as I usually have when doing a readathon, because I have a bunch of things to do this week. But I have some books for review that I want to finish or at least get a big dent in, and a readathon might be the motivation I need!

So here's what I'll be reading this week (my goal being to read at least 400 pages in total):


If you are participating in the Winter's Respite readathon too, leave a comment! (:
