We’re a week into the Summer Book Trek and I thought you might be interested in a run-down of how it’s going.
(No! It’s not too late to enter the reading challenge!)
We have 17 readers signed up as participants. (Although some of their links aren’t working right. If your link is one, please fix it.)
Altogether as of last night, we’ve read 37 books. That’s approximately 2.17 books each (although in reality, there are a couple who are reading like gangbusters and putting the rest of us to shame).
We’ve racked up a total of 524 points and notified 12 winners! Yay!
Now, if you do the math, you’ll realize that 17 people / 52 prizes up for grabs – 12 prizes already given away = gobs more chances to win free books!
So if you haven’t joined the Summer Book Trek yet, DO IT NOW!
I also thought you might be interested in seeing a list of titles read and/or nominated for a Whitney Award thus far.
