October Readathons
I love a good readathon. Nothing beats reading books, and connecting with other book lovers to share the joy of reading.
Life can be so busy that sitting down with a book can be a struggle. Readathons help me make sure I find the time to read.
With this in mind I thought I'd share a list of upcoming readathons with you so you can mark your own calendars with the ones you want to participate in.

Excellent list. I am doing #BYOBthon this month.
ReplyDeleteI'm having fun doing the BYOBthon too. I missed the zombie crawls on Twitter this week, but I'm doing a Hydra for the creature challenge and adding a head for each book I read. Already finished one book. Currently reading my second.
DeleteI must try one of these some time.
ReplyDeleteI'm doing BYOBthon and ebookathon :)
DeleteThat is a lot of challenges! I saw a Frankenstein one somewhere too... I love Frankenstein but my TBR Is way to long to take on anything else this month! Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThere are loads of readathons. There's lots of 24 hours ones that pop up last minute too. They might be doing another DEARathon too towards the end of the month. A Frankenstein one sounds interesting. Not heard of that.
DeleteWow - my regular calendar is challenge enough for me ;)
ReplyDeleteI love readathons. They're a fun way to help me get through my TBR.
DeleteI have so much from the library to finish. Let's wait until November and see what that's all about.
ReplyDeleteThere's lots of readathons in November too (I'll do another post for those soon ;)).
DeleteI haven’t ever tried something like this! I want to get through the ARCs I promised to review, and then I’ll look into these more.
ReplyDeleteYou could always see if any of your ARCs fit with the challenges of any of these readathons. I always try to fit books from my current TBR to the challenges of the readathon I want to do.
DeleteI don't really like them :(
ReplyDeleteReadathons aren't for everyone. They can be lots of fun though. I particularly like no pressure one's like DEARathon and BYOBthon.
DeleteI would like to join one of them. But first I need to finish my TBR pile
ReplyDeleteUse books from your TBR to fit the readathon challenges- That's what I do ;)
DeleteOhh great list I have heard about some of these readathons challenges, thank you so much for sharing your awesome post.
ReplyDeleteI love a good readathon. Currently enjoying BYOBthon :)
DeleteWow that is a lot of readathons. And ashamed to say I have never taken part in a readathon ever. What do you say, should I try it?

Readathons can be a lot of fun. If you've never taken part in a readathon before I suggest trying one of the more relaxed ones like DEARathon where the only challenge is to read as much as possible. BYOBthon is pretty relaxed too. There are challenges but they are optional. You just pick the ones you want to do without the pressure of trying to do them all. Others like Booktubeathon tend to be more demanding as they have fixed goals and daily additional challenges on top of the big challenges for the month.
