"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.
So the Read-a-thon is here! As yet I have not picked up books or made a list. I am both a reader and a cheer leader. Except for the first one, I have participated in all the other read-a-thons. When I signed up this year, I forgot that Diwali is round the corner and I would barely have time. I still need to clean the house, decorate it, put up lights, buy gifts etc etc. And this being the last weekend before Diwali (26 October), I have to do all that and more.
But now I am committed for the read-a-thon and will stick to it at my own pace and time. I will read books on my computer, picking at random. (Remember, I downloaded lots?!!) and cheer up my allotted group of readers! Yay, Yay!

Do what you can and have fun!
I've signed up for the first time but like you, won't be able to do a full 24-hour read/participate. Have fun with Diwali and with the read a thon too!
Enjoy and good luck! better to do things as they come to you in your own time.
I've signed up too and my parents are here to take care of Gage. I'm going to see if I can make the whole 24 hours, but we'll see if my body lets me :)
I am just cheering from the sidelines. Enjoy.
Have fun and good luck getting everything done. I'm participating as a reader and this year I'm cheering for the first time. Happy reading!
Looks like you did great!
