Ready, Set, Review-a-thon Goals!

So, it’s November. And I’m not an aspiring author, so I’m not joining NaNoWriMo, but I do need to catch up on reviews. I tend to read, read, read, because my Kindle allows me to easily do it nonstop with its text-to-speech feature—in the car, waiting in line, anywhere—but the same isn’t always possible when it comes to writing reviews. I don’t have any “on the go” typing tools, no iPad, Kindle Fire, or small laptop, so reviews don’t get done half as quickly as the reading part does. Hence, I’ve joined a November 2012 Review-a-thon hosted by Faye, from A DayDreamer’s Thoughts, and Danie, from Booktacular.
So, what am I planning on doing this month? Well, first off, here’s the list of books I’ve read that STILL need to be reviewed:
-
-
-
-
-
Divergent by Veronica Roth (Divergent #1)
-

-
5 Weeks by June Hopkins
-

-
Weaver by John Abramowitz (The Weaver Saga #1)
-
The Fallstaff Vampire Files by Lynne Murray
-
Chanda’s Secrets by Allan Stratton (Chanda #1)
-
Dead on Ice by Lauren Carr
-
Scourge of an Agnostic God by Michael Juge

-
Jake, Reinvented by Gordon Korman
-
Driving to BelAir: A Novella by William G. Jones

-
13 Little Blue Envelopes by Maureen Johnson (Little Blue Envelope #1)

So, yeah. 32. And that’s not counting the books that I’ll read in-between my hectic life and writing these reviews, so that number… yeah, it’ll go up. But, for all intensive purposes, I’m saying that, in November, I’ll try to write ALL 32 of these, because I really need to. They’re scheduled to be released on the blog in November/December, so… here I go!
As I write the reviews, I’ll hyperlink them once they’re live in order to keep track of what’s done and what’s still on the list of reviews to write.
Wish me luck!

Good luck!
I completely agree about the reviewing/reading while out argument! I have my phone and iPod but typing on touchscreen, for a long period is so… annoying! And writing long-hand has never really agreed with me. Whereas I can just whip out my iPod and be reading a book in that five-ten min gap I have while waiting for the bus/friend/work, etc!
But let’s hope that we can get caught up and then STAY that way! hehe.
Thanks for joining us!
Hope it’s going okay :)
Good luck…you have a long list as I do…but we can do it!!
Happy reviewing!!
