Read-A-Thons?

    I've never actively participated in a read-a-thon before, but there are two that have peaked my interest! So here is where I plan my books to read for both of those read-a-thons!

    The first read-a-thon is #FrightFall which goes from September 29 - October 5. This does occur along with some of my college exams, so my TBR might not be so expansive, but we'll give it a shot.
I'm hoping to read the following books.

The Graveyard Book - Neil Gaiman
The Imperfectionists - Tom Rachman
Lord of the Flies - William Golding
Graphic novel (to be decided)
Sequel to graphic novel.

    And after I've strained myself on that, the following month I'll be doing #HoHoHoRat which goes from November 9 - November 13. Which may or may not also occur during exams. So again, it may seem like a small TBR, but dat exam doe. My prospective TBR for this (books should be Christmassy or take place in snowy magical place) is as follows :

Frankenstein - Mary Shelley (snow duh)
White Fang - Jack London (reread)
The Garden of Eve - K.L. Going (also a reread)
Killer Frost graphic novel?
Sequel to Killer Frost Graphic Novel (are there Killer Frost graphic novels?)

   And that's that. Also, I haven't done this before, so if I've utterly screwed it up, don't be afraid to tell me!

   Thanks, many excite!!

  1. Welcome, Rockett! Glad to have you with us. You have a great line up. I need to read The Graveyard Book someday. :)

    I also host a Christmas read-a-thon at the end of November and I've been hosting The Christmas Spirit Reading Challenge during the Christmas season...this will be my fifth year to host!!! I have a Christmas blog so Christmas is a big deal over there. Haha!

    Anyway, sorry for rambling. Enjoy the reading this week!

      Thanks for hosting a read-a-thon, I'm new to all of this (if you couldn't tell) and everything seems really great!
      Have fun reading as well!
