Dr. Andy | 10321 comments October Read-a-thon!

This will start on October 21st (starting at your midnight time zone) and will end on October 24th (ending at your midnight time zone). This will be a spell out challenge.

The goal is to try and finish all the spell outs!

What you need to do in order to participate:
Step 1 - Sign up on this thread!
Step 2 - Post your progress each day in a new post!
Step 3 - Have fun and read lots of good books!

Halloween is almost upon us. To celebrate we'll be spelling out Halloween, All Saint's Eve, and Samhain. The twist is you can only use the first letter from a title word. You can use any edition. So for example:

The Heartbreak Bakery by A.R. Capetta
If you posted this you could use T, H or B. Since there are no other titles you could only pick between T, H or B.

Incendiary (Hollow Crown #1) by Zoraida Córdova
If you posted this you could use I, D or M. D or M would come from Die Mächte der Moria this edition and you would have to include this link or the cover in your completion post.

How to post:

Every time you FINISH a book, you will need to make a completion post like so:



Completion Post
The Heartbreak Bakery by A.R. Capetta
Halloween: H or Samhain: H
If you use an alternate edition, please include that link or switch the cover you post to that edition.

The words will be in the comments after this and I will be keeping track of what is logged for each letter

Anyone is welcome to join!

Alicia (aliciajb) | 1405 comments Random question: are we trying to spell it all out as a group or individually? Because it's a lot for one person in a four day time frame, but probably not enough for everyone...

It is a team effort to spell out all 3 words.

It is a team effort, not individual.


message 46: by Hayley (new)

Hayley | 606 comments So is it a group effort?
