Happy Holidays, fellow bloggers!
I’m excited to announce a read-a-thon I have been planning. The holidays are great because school and jobs generally settle down and we are able to read our little (or large) hearts out! In the cold, when there isn’t as much to do, the holidays are the perfect time to cozy up next to a fire and…read! This challenge is a perfect way to cherish this time of the year and participate in a read-a-thon for 12 days leading up to Christmas.

Questions?
I created a FAQ page that explains the entire read-a-thon which you can find HERE.
The sign-up link has all the information for the prompts/challenges. You can earn points by completing your prompts and recording how many pages you read each day.
If you have any other questions, Bre will be following the hashtag #12DaysofReading very closely on Twitter. You can always e-mail us, too, if you’re not on Twitter (*cough* *cough* ME). We hope you’ll join us!
OMG – what a super fun themed readathon!

Thanks! I participated in the Bookeyman-A-Thon and figured a Christmas-themed one would be fun!
