From Monday 18th January 2021 at 12.01 am (in your local time zone) you start keeping track of how many pages you read until Sunday 31 January 2021 at 11.59 pm. However, you can start the readathon at any time during these ten day, make it as flexible as you can. In the January 2021 Read-a-thon thread you will post your progress, telling everyone what you're reading and how many pages. Then all readers' totals will be tallied throughout the week to reach the goal of 10,000 pages. This is a relaxed read-a-thon; it doesn't matter if you read 20 pages or 100, it also doesn't matter if we reach our goal, it's just having fun doing what you would normally be doing anyway:) Once the January Read-a-thon thread is posted, make sure to put your name on the thread if you would like to be included. If you simply stumble onto the thread, then please, join in!

*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

Rift Vegan (riftvegan) | 52 comments Jumping in. Thanks for hosting, Alannah! Also a goal for this round of Readathon... write a few book reviews! I've been very bad about adding my read books to GR for the past couple years, and want to fix that!

Wed 20 Jan == 28 pages
Finishing up Rising Out of Hatred: The Awakening of a Former White Nationalist
Good writing, but terrifyingly un-hopeful, if you think about it. :\

Thur 21 Jan == 49 pages
Rosalie Edge, Hawk of Mercy: The Activist Who Saved Nature from the Conservationists
I've had this book for a while. Not terribly interesting yet, hopefully it will get there!

Fri 22 Jan == 41 pages
Getting interesting! Rosalie gets married in Japan and she and her husband travel all across China and then Malaysia. Some time in England before they settle in New York. And this is where Rosalie gets involved in women's suffrage!

Sat 23 Jan == 40 pages
Rosalie starts a garden and gets interested in birds! But then there's this terrible scene with her husband, and she forgets about the birds for many years. And then there's this interesting but way weird history of early Audubon Society. crazy.

Sun 24 Jan == 17 pages
oh my gosh, the early Audubon Society, then called the National Association of Audubon Societies... dang, corrupt and evil. I'm glad Rosalie Edge will eventually save the day! Wish I had time to read more today!!

Mon 25 Jan == 50 pages
Audubon evil continues. But Rosalie Edge is chipping away at it.

Tues 26 Jan == 40 pages
Saved the Yellowstone Waterfall. Bought Hawk Mountain! Association of Audubon has a change of leadership, but then they Demand that Edge hand over Hawk Mt, after she has envisioned it as an independent sanctuary. Tells Audubon to go to hell. :D

Wed 27 Jan == 45 pages
Fought to get Olympic National Park set up... The park goes from the mountains all the way down to the ocean! Also saved old-growth sugar pines near Yosemite!

Thur 28 Jan == 112 pages (finished)
Lobster Is the Best Medicine: A Collection of Comics About Friendship Liz Climo
Needed something different today. Liz Climo is my FAVORITE! ♥♥♥!


Fri 29 Jan == 94 pages (finished Rosalie Edge. pages include endnotes and bibliography, which I did skim!)
Saves a couple more parks. and then after Rosalie Edge dies, she gets overshadowed by Rachel Carson (another hero of mine!)

Sat 30 Jan == 88 pages
Tomorrow Will Be Different: Love, Loss, and the Fight for Trans Equality by Sarah McBride
I could not put this down, and I was crying almost constantly... the support she gets when she comes out is just amazing. I'd almost forgotten that there are good people in the world and sometimes good things happen.

Sun 31 Jan == 38 pages
Trying to get anti-discrimination bills passed. It's just scraping by, very edge of the seat!

TOTAL == 642 pages from four books

Rising Out of Hatred The Awakening of a Former White Nationalist by Eli Saslow Rosalie Edge, Hawk of Mercy The Activist Who Saved Nature from the Conservationists by Dyana Z.

Jade | 246 comments I have updated my post for now. I don’t see me reading anymore but if I pick anything up tomorrow, I will make sure to add it. Is there usually a deadline with this?

I usually give people about a week, so I will tally up the page totals probably next Sunday evening around tea time in the UK. I would have come back and kept checking, if anyone had added their totals. I would have added them into my spreadsheet, now I just add them all up together, a lot easier for me. I will usually comment to hopefully remind people if they still need to update. But if they have some page numbers in their post, I will add them into the total.
