The August First Weekend ReadaThing is Saturday & Sunday, August 6th & 7th, but also the 5th & 8th due to international time zones.

The 'official' announcement thread: http://www.librarything.com/topic/120490

It starts Noon in New Zealand, which is 2 AM in Paris. That is also 8 PM on Friday in the US Eastern time zone & 5 PM in the US Western time zone. It goes on for 48 hours!! If you can't read on Saturday, you can read on Sunday!

Why am I posting this here? Because I'm sorta, kinda, the one that started this one.... and I don't want my friends to feel that I've left them out of the fun. 'Cause reading is fun!! And reading alone but with a bunch of other people is even "funner"!

You can sign up for the times you want to read. Or, You can just say you are going to read without specifying a time. AND we are also (sorta unofficially) linking to the "Do Nothing But Read Day" on Saturday, August 6th, so there's a sign up for that, too!

We are going to be reading anyway, right?

(and please forgive my bad grammar & atrocious vocabulary)

I will be at a music festival all week-end but plan to have a book in my bag and read between sets and whenever the act isn't to my taste. What with that and the obligatory reading before bed I'm sure I'll get much reading done.

carod, there is a "no timeline" sign up for people, like you, who want to read with the group, but can't "schedule" that time. It is on the wiki page toward the bottom.

I am waiting to see how much work I'll get done until then to see if i can afford the time. I guess I'll make a last minute decission.
