Wow! 2020 has gone by so fast and, in a strange way, kinda slow too, right? ⌛😅
But here we are! In a blink of an eye, it’s November already, so we say it’s time to drink some hot cocoa, curl up under a blanket, light a candle, and read loads & loads of books. 📖🍁
We know you have a lot of books left in your TBR pile. So what better time to join some readathons and read all those books than now? 💙
October extinguished itself in a rush of howling winds and driving rain and November arrived, cold as frozen iron, with hard frosts every morning and icy drafts that bit at exposed hands and faces.
― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Here are the readathons you can join to help you go through your fall TBR pile:
November 2020 Readathons:

🌰 Hypeathon (1 – 30 November) – this reading challenge focuses on hyped books & series, with a different theme each month. #NostalgicNovember is the theme for November, meaning you can read any hyped book, as long it’s one of your favorites or a friend’s favorite, or if it is in any way nostalgic to you.
🌰 Thankfulathon (1 – 30 November) – this one challenges you to go back to all the books you’re grateful for. There are some prompts for your reading, but the main point is to just be thankful that there are so many worlds out there for us to discover.
