The Read.Read.READ-A-THON went really well, I am recovered and working on getting things ready at our house for Christmas. Just to get things wrapped up, I want to finish the final and biggest prize giving out of the event.

The Big Holiday Prize Book Packs from Hachette were won by:

The Christmas Prize:
Michelle Miller/the true book addict

The Hanukkah Prize:
Ash

The Kwanzaa Prize:
Corina

Thank you to all the bloggers who participated in making this all work out well, and also a HUGE thank you to the lovely publicists who gave books from Hachette and Sterling Publications. THANK YOU!!!

I am working on getting addresses from all of you, please email me within the next couple of days with your addresses so I can get those sent off. I am a little annoyed as I can’t find one of my winners at all, who won the book Road Out of Hell?! Eeek! If you won it, email me and we’ll get things figured out.

Remember in order to qualify for these prizes you must live in the US or Canada. No PO boxes please. :) thanks!

A couple of weeks ago when our church planned a woman’s retreat for this weekend, I was thrilled- then I realized something. It was scheduled for the same weekend as the Read-A-Thon. I am a book geek, nerd, freak yes it is true, and I LOVE THE READ-A-THON!! I love reading for a full day and testing the limits of my sanity. Check out my Vlog from last time if you think I am exaggerating. Yeah, I knew you’d be convinced.

If you are in the same boat and can’t do Dewey’s Read-A-Thon you should join up for this one! If you are doing Dewey’s Read-A-Thon and just need to get a ton of reading done, join up! You can read for as long as you want during the 24 hours. I have a hard time staying up all night, but I try to make it. This will be my third Read-A-Thon and each time it gets BETTER! It would be even better with you…so if you are on the fence, join in-even for a bit of it.

Sign Ups are located below, if you want more of your bookie buddies to join up-post it on your blog! Feel free to grab the button too. Mostly just get ready to read yourself silly!!
