April is bringing us two excellent readathon events and I am so in the mood for some social and virtual reading. I love online reading communities and the two described below are two of my favorites. I hope you will join one or both so that we can share book experiences and can collectively increase our TBRs.
The lovely Michelle is hosting once again this most awesomest of readathons – an entire month of horror!!!! This one runs April 1- 30. The goal is to read at least one scary novel. It includes several genres such as horror, thriller, paranormal, mystery, and gothic for example. I love me an excuse for reading more frightening books, so of course, I am so in!
Potential TBR for this readathon:
- The Haunting of Hill House (Shirley Jackson)
- We Have Always Lived in the Castle (Shirley Jackson)
- The Turn of the Screw (Henry James)

April is also Dewey’s readathon month. This year, this 24-hour goodness takes place April 6th. I love this bi-annual readathon and usually host one or two social hours in the Goodreads group or on the Dewey blog. I will update you on this once I have my time slots confirmed.
Potential TBR for this readathon:
- Anne of Green Gables (L.M. Montgomery)
- Dream Country; The Sandman, Vol 3 (Neil Gaiman)
- Sorry I Wrote So Many Sad Poems Today (Tracy Dimond)
- A Goosebumps book (R.L. Stine)
A while ago, I wrote a post about how I prep for a 24-hour readathon, if you feel so inclined, check it out here. You can also follow my updates here or on my twitter. The official hashtag is #readathon.
