Monthly Challenges discussion

Our 1st ever Read-A-Thon will take the 3rd weekend of this month. More details will come later this week. :D

Our READ - A - THON will take place Friday, July 17 - Sunday, July 19, 2020

(Starting 12:01 am on Friday and ending on Sunday at 11:59 pm)

There will opportunities to earn some extra points but its a weekend for us to encourage each other with our reading. : D

There are 3 ways to earn extra points during our read-a-thon.

1. The average books read during a weekend Read-A-Thon are 3 to 5 books. So if you read 3+ books, you will receive 1 point

2. The average pages read during a weekend read-a- thon are around 800+pages. So if you read 800+ pages, you will received 1 point. If you read over a 1000+ pages, you will receive another point.
REMEMBER All Pages Read during this weekend count. So give an account of pages read each day.

3. If you completed 2 originial tasks (bonus points don't count) during our Read-A-Thon, you will receive 1 point.

Have Fun this weekend and I hope we all find time to read. :D

I better get started. 😁

I know I didn't earn any extra points but I really enjoyed this. I hope we continue this. I haven't done much readng this month so far and this helped me make some progress. 😀

I enjoyed it too! :D

Thank You Everyone for making our first read-a-thon a success! : D
Everyone who participated will get a extra point :D

Woo! That was fun, all!

Not sure I followed the rules for a Read-a-thon. Looks like you enter the number of pages read each day in whatever you are reading. I'll know for the next one.
However, this worked out OK since I read a different book each day and just completed the whole thing and recorded it.
I'm all for doing it again.

Lets have our next read-a-thon in September. :D
