Dewey's 24 Hour Read-a-thon
·OnlineOnline30 attendees from 15 groupsDewey’s 24-Hour Read-A-Thon (https://deweysreadathon.wordpress.com/) is back!! I love doing this event because I get through a book or two in one day.
On April 18th, the Challenge of reading ALL DAY long starts. During the bi-annual read-a-thon, we will read books, post to our blogs, Facebook, The StoryGraph, or Goodreads about our reading, and check in here. We will also participate in mini-challenges throughout the day. This event happens twice a year, in April and October. It was created by a book lover named Dewey. The first one was held in October 2007. Dewey died in late 2008. The read-a-thon was renamed to honor its founder in 2009.
On April 18th the Dewey’s 24 Hour Read-A-Thon (https://www.instagram.com/deweysreadathon/) will start at:
