Fall into Reading Read-a-Thon Day 3 Update

Managed to complete my goal for 3 books read for this week's Read-a-thon -

Created and hosted by Allison and Mallory @AllainSisters on twitter #FallintoReading if you'd like to check out what others are reading

Tender Mercies have been explored cover to cover - thanks to warm-hearted author, Mary Manners,  for keeping me in tissues! =)
There has been a Tuesday topic posted at the Bibliophile Sisters hosting this week, but we do know life can take new directions.

• "TUESDAY: This day we are planning a fall tag. We have created some questions for this and will be talking about our favorite things for fall."

Sounds interesting... as do the following scheduled events for the week: *

• WEDNESDAY: We  will be pairing books with music.
  We are going to put together some books and songs/artists that go well with the book.
  Start thinking of some ideas now - we want to hear from everyone!
• THURSDAY: Tea talk!
  We will have a Q+A and you can ask us questions we will answer during this talk!
• FRIDAY: Banned books essay and reviews.
  The week we chose for the read-a-thon ended up being the same week as banned books week so we definitely needed to make this a part of the read-a-thon!
• SATURDAY: The finale!
  Today we will be announcing the winner of the giveaway, 
• as well as some other things we'll be posting at a later date.
• SUNDAY: This day isn’t officially part of the reading days,
   our day to wrap up the week and talk about how the challenges and our goals went!

*
Looking forward to seeing more and doing more - Maybe even get another read in under the wire ?!

HapPy 1st Day of Autumn! Fall into Reading Read-a-thon 22.9.13

HapPy 1st Day of Fall Everyone!! Still very green around here, but a few yellow touches let us know it's Autumn as do the chilly nights! Perfect for celebrating with some reading ...

Thanks to Allison and Mallory for creating and hosting ! I have been consumed with so many new 'to do's' and xtra commitments, reading has really become a momentary treat. I almost hate to commit for realities soon replace my wishes! Even if I accomplish 1 or 2 books this week I will feel victorious, thus my participation to acknowledge the accomplishment! My go to for easy reading refreshment? Starting with Rosamunde Pilcher's apropos The END of SUMMER !

Next?  As time and interest dictate....
Are you joining in? Sign up at The Bibliophile Sisters to participate. HapPy Fall ! HapPy Reading ! Yes, an afternoon of Autumn sunshine relaxing with  a book and I've knocked down 1 ! The End of Summer is DONE ! Unsure what will capture my attention next,  Which will be book #2 ?
Thinking possibly a Hamish Macbeth?
MC Beaton's inimitable red-haired Scottish Sergeant's humorous hijinx in the Highlands... sounding good to me !

Yes! managed to finish this one by end of day. Knowing tomorrow's busy schedule, that's probably a good thing! * Let us know what's on your week's reading hitlist.

Link up with Sheila and friends [she's away camping without internet for 5 days] just check for her post at Book Journey *
