Deserted Island Read-a-Thon
Deserted Island Read-a-thon, this Read-a-thon will run Sunday, June 9 – Saturday, June 22.
Your treasure hunt has landed you on a deserted island… what books do you want with you? For this read-a-thon you’re making a list of the books you’d want with you. The twist is, you have to read them all in the given time, so make your list wisely. You must have at least one book (no less than 125 pages) on your list and all books fall under Summer COYER rules, so they can be any price and obtained from any legal location in any format. Completing this Read-a-thon successfully will earn you 5 points on the treasure hunt.
For the first time ever, I’m going to participate in a Read-a-thon… I’ve never done this before, since more often than not, I just don’t want to read books once I put them on a list 😀 But I think I’ll be able to make it this time.
Desert Island Read-a-thon books:
- Small Kingdoms and Other Stories by Charlaine Harris
- Mrs. Everything by Jennifer Weiner
- Twice in a Blue Moon by Christina Lauren
That’s it for me. I hope I’ll enjoy these books – I know I’m really enjoying COYER so far, and hopefully, Desert Island Read-a-thon won’t be my first and last try.

if I ever get stranded on desert island, probably Atticus O’ sullivan’s series
I think if I actually were to get stranded somewhere, I’d get Shakespeares whole collection with me 🙂
I’ve heard good things about Mrs Everything! Hope you enjoy it.
Thanks, Nicci! I hope so too 🙂
I know what you mean about struggling to read by a list. Looks like you picked some good ones, though. I’m doing the readathon, too.
I hope we’ll both make it even with a list, Sophia!
I haven’t done a read a thon in FOREVER, I used to love doing them all the time. Hope you have fun and get some good reads in darlin.
That’s funny, Renée, since this is the first one I’ve ever attempted 🙂 Thanks!
Good Luck on your first ever read-a-thon Lexxie! I struggle with following a list too, because I’m such a moody reader. I can’t wait to see what you think of Twice in a Blue Moon. I have that one for review also!
Thanks Lindy! Yeah, that’s usually my problem, too. But these three books are ones I’m excited about, so hopefully, I’ll be able to make it :I
I just joined the read-a-thon yesterday when I read about it here on your blog 🙂 It will be my first too! Good luck!!!
