I am officially announcing my first readathon. It will be taking place on December 4 & 5 and will not have a specific time limit. You can read for as much or as little as you wish to.
One thing I would like for people to do is to donate either some money or toys to your local Christmas Bureau. You can donate as much or as little as you wish to.
If somebody can make a tag for the readathon, I would appreciate it. Also note, this being done for the pure enjoyment of reading over a couple of days, while the hectic Christmas season is under way, and to take some time to enjoy a book. Please sign up and I look forward to seeing the first weekend in December. The tag can be found here.

Hi Melissa--I'm signing up for your read-a-thon (YAY....another read-a-thon!) and I made you a button, but I don't see an email address on your profile. Please email me at truebookaddictATgmailDOTcom and I'll reply back with the image. I will donate a toy to my local Toys for Tots program too. Thanks for hosting!

Thanks Michelle for posting. I love read-a-thons/Challenges.
I need to get back to writing, but right now I'm having too much fun reading. With the upcoming holidays I rather blog, read and relax. Oh yeah, and give lots of stuff away!

I'm doing two-for-one...Two great Read-a-thons on the same weekend. Lots of good reading for a great cause! I linked up above.
I will do it, although I am working all day Saturday.
This sounds great, and I love the toy donation idea. Thanks for hosting!
I'd love to do this! I'm not sure how much I'll actually read, as exams will be looming by then, but I'll do my best. :)
The URL listed #6 for me is no longer active. I had to move my web address. The #15 link is the correct link :) Thanks

Hoping to finish up The Life and Times of Sugar Ray Robinson by Wil Haygood and The Road by Cormac McCarthy in-between putting up Christmas decorations. Busy, busy weekend!
I should add as for as my charitable donations this season, I donated to Toys for Tots and sponsored 3 Angels.
I just started and I am the host! Late night and too much caffeine. Anyways off to start reading; will be putting up a post soon.
