Strictly Sequels Read-A-Thon!

ETA: The readathon has been postponed until Thanksgiving week. I've had some personal things come up that won't wait, so this had to wait instead. :( Look for more information (and hopefully more challenges) coming in November!

It's getting closer! Are you ready to clear your shelves of some of those sequels sitting around? I know I am!

The Strictly Sequels Read-A-Thon will begin on September 1 at 8 am (MDT) and go through September 3 at midnight (MDT).

To participate, just fill out the linky below, linking to your participation post. Share which sequels you're planning on reading (you know, so all of our TBR piles can continue to grow) in your post so that we can encourage each other.

I am planning on reading Bloodrose, The Savage Grace, The Last Echo, A Million Suns, Surrender, and Spell Bound. I'm hoping that I can get all of them read during the read-a-thon.

I'll be doing update posts throughout the weekend on my progress, and Tweeting with the hashtag #StrictlySequelsReadAThon.

Everyone who participates and updates (blogs and/or Twitter) will be entered into a giveaway for a $20 Amazon gift card. The winner will be chosen by random.org. In order for your participation to count, you MUST link your participation/goals post up here and if you're going to Tweet, use the hashtag (#StrictlySequelsReadAThon). I need a way to track, yo! (also, please make sure that your Tweets are public so that you're counted)
I'd like to make this an annual event - let's see how it goes the first time around, and then make improvements for next year. If anyone is interested in co-hosting next year, let me know!

I can't wait to get started, and I hope that we'll have lots of participants. We can get through all those sequels together!
