November Read-a-thon!
With the holidays right around the corner, it’s time to prepare the Challenge Corner Feast! From turkey to mashed potatoes to pumpkin pie and everything in between, we’re not going to stop until we’re too stuffed to do anything but sit back and read.
The read-a-thon will take place from November 24th to November 30th (starting/ending at midnight in your time zone).
How to add to the feast?:
Using any edition of the book you read, you can:
1. Use any food on the book cover
2. Spell out a food by using the letters in title, series, and/or author first/last name (in any order)
3. Find the word in text (include page/percentage and the sentence)
After finishing a book, please make a completion post as follows:
