There are so many good read-a-thons going on during June and July that I'm going to sign up for all of them in this post. Please take a peak and sign up. Keep reading because I have an announcement at the end of this post.

Official Blurb: Summer Solstice Read-a-thon is a 24 hr event taking place on the longest day of the year...June 21, 2013. It was created by Rie @ Mission To Read and is cohosted by Melissa of Harley Bear Book Blog, Lindsay of The Novel Life, Kathrin of StackedNPainted, and Melina of The Pretty Nifty YA Reader. The goal of this read-a-thon is to take advantage of all the extra daylight and read as much as you can! Mini challenges and a giveaway will be happening this day so make sure to check out any of the host's blog's the day of for more information. Don't forget to chat with us at the twitter party 12pm CST #SSRead.
My very first read-a-thon that I will be hosting. Please help me make this one a success because I have another one planned, but it won't happen if this one doesn't at least get a couple of participants. It is a very laid back read-a-thon where the goal is to read as many library books as possible. I'm not going to be picky if you want to read your own books that is fine.

Once Upon a Read-a-Thon is Hosted by Pure Imagination
The High Summer Read-a-Thon is hosted by Seasons of Reading
As you see I have lined up a full two months of read-a-thons which I love. Now I have some exciting news for all of you. I told you all I graduated a couple of weeks ago. Well I got a letter in the mail that I could take 3 college classes in July at my University. After careful consideration I decided to go for it. I start college on July 1st and will be done with those 3 classes by July 26th. I will be taking Speech, College Algebra, and Leadership (just a class I have to take to be apart of the program). The other two classes I need to graduate. Getting these classes out of the way let me take fewer classes my first semester at college as a double major. It is pretty insane that just two classes helps me so much.
The bad news for you guys is that the blog is going to be pretty quiet in July. I'm going to be busy working to pass these classes so there might be occasionally posts, but not at the capacity I'm posting right now. I'm going to try to premake some posts and schedule them. The Summer Lovin', Once upon a read-a-thon, and High Summer Read-a-thon are all during this time so I will be participating in them. I just don't know to what capacity yet. I'm going to have to test the waters and see what college summer life is like.
Thanks for reading

Congrats on the college classes! Wow, I am impressed that you are working toward a double major. That is awesome!
ReplyDeleteIt is going be busy, but I think I'm up for the challenge. It is only going to take me about 4 and 1/2 to 5 years. For two degrees that is amazing. I hope you will join my read-a-thon. If you want to read your own books I won't be picky.
