Ana Mo Shoshin | November Readathon Recap | Bookmas 2023 | Nonfiction, Novellas, Annie Ernaux, Barbara Kingslover @AnaMoShoshin | Uploaded December 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Hi, I’m Mo.
Hello Bookmas Day 22!
November is another great month for readathons. Two of my all time favorite happen this month! I've joined in with Nonfiction November and Novella November ever since first finding out about them! I also love Skoden or Indigethon, to read work by Indigenous authors. This year was a the first year that I joined in with Ernauxvember and read my first Annie Ernaux book.
I've realized that a lot of the readathons I love don't really have prompts, hosts, or any fanfair about them any more. But that's OK! I love that about readathons and reading challenges! you can still do them, whether they are being hosted or not! You can revive them! you can do what you want to make your reading fun and exciting! Are there any readathons that have disappeared you wish would come back?

What readathons did you join in with in Nov?

What should I do with my giant list in 2024? What format would you like to see these recaps take in the future?

TBR Spin - youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWDh1Q6VSIsg60Rmkvyl9GGyeXq9xv2Zr


A big part of this project for me is to keep a running list of all the readathons I find out about through the year. I always look for a good comprehensive list, and since I can't find a really good one, I am making one myself!
I suggest searching the readathon by using youtube search with the name and announcement to find a relevant videos. I will add any of my own videos where they make sense. Feel free to leave any readathons you like in the comments belwo so we can expand the list!
