Once Upon a Read-a-Thon [day 1]: intro & goals

Well I have a glass of wine in my hand right now. So maybe that explains why I am signing up for ANOTHER read-a-thon right on the cuffs of ending the first. I mean, I just typed up my finale post for Summer Lovin'. Or maybe it is because I still have goals that I need to reach (I did sign up for a two week challenge and I only have 2/10 books read)...so here I am signing up yet again for (my now 2nd ever) read-a-thon.

Okay, okay... I am not fooling you. They're a lot of fun too!

So I am entering the Once Upon a Read-a-Thon. It lasts from July 8th - July 10th. If you are interesting in signing up too, more information can be found here.

Hello hoppers! Thanks for jumping by!

  • Start Mind Games byKiersten White.
  • Write a review for I'm Not Her.
