I am hosting a readathon called the Back to School Readathon. It will be some time between the end of July and the begging of August. It is going to be a week long readathon focused on reading as many books as possible before the end of summer. This will be the second year of doing it. I will have more information as far as dates and challenges on my channel when it gets closer.
Ohhh my gosh I always watch people's 24 hour read-a-thon vlogs but never participate because I never know when hey are going to happen and I can never find any information on them anywhere! This video + your calendar are a god send I swear! Thank you 😭
Thank you for such a great list! I know of a few more readathons: - Read the North (read Canadian authors in July) - Sequel September - Victober - AtoZReadathon (may and november last year)
Thank you so much for creating this resource again this year. I want to participate in most of these read-a-thons! Your read-a-thon calendar is really helpful. Also, Thanks so much for including my Manga Madness Readathon!
Thank you so much for doing this annually! I’m commenting to let you know about the 2nd annual Owlcrate athon. The goal is to read the Owlcrate crate books you haven’t picked up yet. Dates are Feb. 10-23. Challenges are to read 2 books in 2 weeks, read from 2 different genres, and read the Owlcrate book you have had longest. More information can be found on the Owlcrate RUclips channel.
+singinwithceline Thank you! I was trying to find out if Owlcrate were hosting again this year when preparing this video, but couldn't find anything. So glad to see they are back, it's a great concept :)
Thanks so much for including the Unicorn Readathon! I look forward to this video of yours every year, and I'm impressed that you keep up with readathon news so well.
Your video and even more your calendar is one of the most brilliant idea ever happened in booktube! Last year it helped me so much and I'M sure it'll help me this year too
Each year this video becomes longer & longer! I didn’t use to be much of a readathon person, but this weekend i tried one (had to vlog my experience) & now I want to participate in one :D thanks for all the info!
Thank you for this amazing overview! Not really an official Readathon but on the 10th and 11th of February I'm gonna read for 48 hours to celebrate that my semester is over so if anyone wants to join I'd love that and I'll post updates on twitter and a vlog on my channel
Thanks so much Catriona for including the Timehopathon and The Irish Readathon! This is such a fantastic video and one I'm bookmarking to revisit probably every month now to remind myself what readathons to take part in.
Thanks so much for making everyone aware of my readathon. Also for making me aware of ones I didn't know about. FYI for anyone looking for Alphebathon it is actually spelled Alphabethon. So excited for all of these! Thanks for all you do! 😙
Oh my lordie!! That’s seriously impressive - I did the biannual bibliothon in January and loved it. Thinking I might do one of the Harry Potter ones when announced, TBR breakdown and a series one - although I think the two I had in mind are overlapping.... research time! Thank you for all the effort you put into organising this and letting us know what is going on in the world. I don’t use twitter but if I did I’d sign up to the readathon news
Thank you so much for doing this, I'm always behind on read-a-thon stuff so it's hard to make time to participate. One that's coming up soon (literally tomorrow) is the CozyAThon hosted by Silvia Kay. It's a super chill read-a-thon that's focusing on reading during the Valentine's day season in this round. She has a whole bunch of V-day themed challenges too.
I 100% want to get involved in some readathons this year! I’ve never take part in one before and feel like I’m missing out! Absolutely going to try and make it into a video too 😆
Feminist lit february is happening next month! The announcement video is on itsjanelindsay's channel. Thanks so much for doing this every year! I use the calendar religiously xx
There is actually a Goodreads group called Hooked On Books that hosts a ton of readathons throughout the year, so you definitely should check the group out! www.goodreads.com/group/show/139735-hooked-on-books
what a fun video! i wanted to participate into more readathons so this is great 💙 for the first time i participated in the biannual bibliothon this year and i just posted my wrap up which was my first ever booktube video! ah! 💙💙
How do you actually create/host your own readathon? Because Ive got some ideas, for some really cool ones- however I'm not sure how to get them out there. Anyone care to tell me/help me?
There is also another month long readathon that started today. It's called Faebruary. Sarah Jane created it. :) Faebruary goodreads: www.goodreads.com/group/show/453492-faebruary?ref=discussion_newsfeed_item_link Faebruary announcement: ruclips.net/video/FDuTwmakwZU/видео.html
This one isn't on your calendar for February but Sarah Jane from The Book Life is hosting "Faebuary" here's the link to her announcement video!ruclips.net/video/FDuTwmakwZU/видео.html
Because I am using the dates that the host submitted to me through the submission form. I will get in touch to check if they added another round or changed the dates, but perhaps the Tumblr hasn't updated as the Goodreads group says March 5-11: www.goodreads.com/group/show/211600-fantasy-readathon-becausedragonsrat :) I hope this helps!
Love you and appreciate all the effort that goes into this ♥
a trick : you can watch movies at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching a lot of movies lately.
@Alec Harper Yea, been watching on Flixzone for since november myself :D
These are videos that save bookworms’ lives. Thank you for putting in such an effort!
this is easily the most useful video on booktube, thank you for all the hard work i'm sure went into this and for keeping up with all the readathons

Nothing like coming back from work and finding that Catriona's video is up ❤

I've found your readathon calendar to be such a valuable resource. Thanks for keeping us informed! :D
Looking forward each year for your overview, thank you for the effort 😊
Merphy Napier is host a readathon called the Rereadathon in March from the 18-24th. I am a cohost but I felt it wasn't my place to fill out the form.
The contemporary-a-thon is coming up in February 12th-18th with the live show on the 17th.
thanks so much for including A Very Merry Readathon and the Disney Read-A-Long!
there is the MS readathon in august. it is for the whole month. but it might only be in australia and new zealand
Contemporaryathon is this month hosted by chelseadollingreads, pages and pens, and myreadingisodd!

Thanks so much for making everyone aware of my readathon. Also for making me aware of ones I didn't know about. FYI for anyone looking for Alphebathon it is actually spelled Alphabethon. So excited for all of these! Thanks for all you do! 😙
+Bookaholic Banter oh goodness, how did I manage that! I thankfully spelt it right in the description and actual calendar 😂
Little Book Owl It's ok. 😊
This is such a great idea! Thank you so much for organizing it all!
Thank you for assisting my read-a-thon addiction, 2018 is going to be a good reading year.
These are great because I always look to you for readathons.
Oh my lordie!! That’s seriously impressive - I did the biannual bibliothon in January and loved it. Thinking I might do one of the Harry Potter ones when announced, TBR breakdown and a series one - although I think the two I had in mind are overlapping.... research time!

There is also Victober. It's all October long and the challenge is to read Victorian literature.
Ooooh. Yes, thank you for this Cat!

I wished I'd seen this earlier!
There is actually a Goodreads group called Hooked On Books that hosts a ton of readathons throughout the year, so you definitely should check the group out! www.goodreads.com/group/show/139735-hooked-on-books

Owl Crate will be having one in Feb.
The Let's Be Mermaids Read-A-Thon which is focused on reading mermaid books is occuring again in the summer, but the date has not been set
24in48 readathon had confirmed that the next one will be July 21st and 22nd :)
Is there a way I can join the readathons and twitter sprints? I'm thinking of becoming a booktuber :)
多読！！ Tadoku!! It is a reading contest that you have to read in a foreign language! You can read about it at readmod.com (read more or die). 😁
I know that last summer there was a Mermaid readathon
How do you actually create/host your own readathon?
Because Ive got some ideas, for some really cool ones- however I'm not sure how to get them out there.
Anyone care to tell me/help me?
There is also another month long readathon that started today. It's called Faebruary. Sarah Jane created it. :)
Faebruary goodreads: www.goodreads.com/group/show/453492-faebruary?ref=discussion_newsfeed_item_link
Faebruary announcement: ruclips.net/video/FDuTwmakwZU/видео.html
the 24in48 already happen last weekend, it was the first round but there may be another one sometime this year i hope
Libby Gregory The second round is July 22-23, if memore serves :-)
There is the #thrillerathon hosted by Harriet Rosie. Feb. 17-24.. on Twitter at @#thrillerathon
take a shot each time she says readathon.
This one isn't on your calendar for February but Sarah Jane from The Book Life is hosting "Faebuary" here's the link to her announcement video!ruclips.net/video/FDuTwmakwZU/видео.html
why #becauseofdragonsRAT in your calendar say 5-11 march but the tumblr page say 20-26 february?
Because I am using the dates that the host submitted to me through the submission form. I will get in touch to check if they added another round or changed the dates, but perhaps the Tumblr hasn't updated as the Goodreads group says March 5-11: www.goodreads.com/group/show/211600-fantasy-readathon-becausedragonsrat :) I hope this helps!
Thanks You! (Make my video again XD)
What happened with a novel experience
She passed away May 2016
how?
Dan Amorim I don't think that information needs to be spread over the internet.
Stacey Taylor Oh I’m sorry. I have just never heard about it before. I don’t mean to disrespect anyone.
