The Flips Flipping Pages book club/shelfari community is holding their first ever 24 Hour Read-a-thon from 9pm April 8 to 9pm April 9. What’s a Read-a-thon you may ask? ”
For 24 straight hours, we will get together in one venue and read books, cheer each other on, and participate in games and mini-challenges. We can read for the pure enjoyment of it, for the experience of participating in a readathon, to meet new friends, or even to raise money or awareness for a cause. If you can’t stay the full 24 hours, then drop by and stay for however long you can. The FFP 24 Hour Readathon is based on and in connection with Dewey’s 24 Hour Readathon, a twice-yearly international online readathon which began in 2007.”
The event will be held at everyone’s favorite independent bookstore, Libreria at Cubao X. You can find directions to the venue, as well as the sign-up page, at the official FFP Read-a-thon site.
