It’s finally here, the kick-off for The Big Game’s On Read-a-thon! Although the official Superbowl kick-off isn’t for several hours yet, I wanted to give everyone the opportunity to start reading if they choose!
Please enter the link to your kick-off post below. Discuss the books you are planning to read, the food you are planning to snack on, etc. Since this is a completely laid back, relaxed read-a-thon, feel free to do it any way you chose!
My mother is coming into town to watch the boys while my husband & I are out of town, so I’ll be spending my day both reading & cleaning in preparation for her visit. I’m starting off with Little Princes by Conor Grennan. I actually started reading this yesterday, got halfway through before I had to force myself to go to bed.
If you are following/participating on Twitter, the official hashtag is #superbowlreadathon! Cheer on those who are reading, join in with your own reading plans!
Be sure to check back periodically throughout the day for fun updates & mini-challenges!

Oh, and happy reading, everyone!
Hooray!
This is a great idea. I am not a big sports fan at all so I was planning on reading, cooking, and cleaning today which is what I pretty much do every Sunday. lol

Glad to see others have used their Salon posts as a kick off post. I did the same, blaming the stomach bug I’ve had this weekend for my laziness.
Go Steelers! Go all of us, with our reading!

I’m in! I just finished Riddle of Berlin. I’m going to do some writing of my own in Four Badges then dive right into Lee Child’s 61 Hours.
What a great idea Jenn!

Well – - – the linky thing didn’t work for me, and my blog is actually cooking not reading so I’ll just post here. I’m using this day to get through a pile of ARCs I have piled up and need to read and review for the amazon.com vine program.
So far:
The PS Brothers by Maribeth Boelts
Celia and the Fairies by Karen McQuestion
Plain Kate by Erin Bow
