"I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound and stab us." Franz Kafka
For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.
Are you planning on participating in the upcoming readathon? Why not tell us a little about your plans: reading solo or with a partner/group? How long to do plan to read? Do you have your books chosen? If not reading, do you plan to be a cheerleader?
As in the past, I do have plans to participate in the read-a-thon. Unless something unavoidable comes up. I am a solo reader. I need only myself and books to be in commune. No one else. I plan to read for 10-13 hours. More if I can manage. I have not chosen my books, but I will concentrate more on crime fiction. Those are fast readers and sustain interest for longer periods. I was planning to read romances but I don't have any right now and don't plan to buy any either! Although officially not a cheerleader, I will go around visiting readers to encourage them. As I like visitors, I think I ought to reciprocate!

I am still uninformed.Will have to look into it.Truth is, I don't understand it. What makes it different from any other reading week? Here's mine.
I will be sure to stop by and cheer you on!! It is always so much fun.
Good luck to you, however I think I read enough to not participate in a read-a-thon.
I won't be participating, but I hope you have fun!
Have fun! The Girl and I are participating again, and though we definitely won't stay up the full 24 hours, we'll have a lot of fun trying.
