Introducing: The Rainbow Rowell Read-a-Thon!



Hello everyone! I have a rather exciting event to announce. Probably obvious from the banner, but this December, we at Looking for the Panacea, along with Eve from PaperGrey and Em from Fluttereal Flight are hosting a Rainbow Rowell Read-a-Thon!

Since Rainbow Rowell only has three books so far (but with many more to come, we hope haha), we thought we'd host a read-a-thon to read all three of her books along with discussions and quizzes and what not. We're going to be doing this chronologically, starting right here at Looking for the Panacea with Attachments!

Then we're going to be going over to Em for Eleanor and Park


And finally Eve with Fangirl!

This event will be the perfect excuse to finally read the three books if you haven't already, or to reread if you have. Plus, we're also running a fantabulous giveaway with extra entries every time you participate, so seriously, what other excuse do you need to join? Sign ups are just below, and you can sign up at any point from now until December 31! You can participate as much or as little as you like. So, if you only own one of the books, you can just participate in that particular read-a-thon. (Or you could just borrow the books from the library hehe)

By the way, the buttons were all made by Em, and seriously, aren't they beautiful? We love them, so major thank you Em!! <3

  1. This is awesome! And I have time to participate too. BUT now I don't have money to buy the books to read. I only own Fangirl so may try to participate in that one, but we'll see. Either way I'm sure you'll all have great fun with this :D

  3. Wow! This is SUCH a great idea! If I can get my hands on copies of the books (I've wanted to read them for a loooong time), I'll link up. Now to go raid my library...

    1. Definitely time to go raid the library. My local librarian knows me by name now and I've only been going there for a few months. Clearly I borrow too many books haha.

  7. Sounds wonderful, I have Fangirl on my shelf to read and I would love to read her other stuff. I have heaps of books to read until the end of the year though, since I'm going on holidays. Enjoy the readathon!

    1. Aww you should join up anyway! You can always just join in on the discussions without rereading the book if you don't have time :P

  8. Have fun, ladies! I'm still saving Attachments for a rainy day when I've read too many bad books in a row. I just finished rereading Eleanor & Park and it's still completely amazing!

    1. Attachments is great! I actually saved it up for quite a while but then Chantelle convinced me to read it with her reading updates. It just sounded so good that I had to go grab myself a copy haha.

    2. hahaha Christina, I love your way of thinking. I've got Paper Towns by John Green saved up for that exact purpose ;)

    1. The buttons are amazing aren't they! Em did a fabulous job.
      You should totally join :P You don't necessarily have to read the book during the week haha. It's more so the discussions that are fun to join in on!

  14. This sounds like so much fun! I love Rainbow Rowell! I've only read Fangirl and Eleanor & Park so far, but Attachments is on my TBR. I'd love to participate but I don't think I'd have the time. I'll definitely be keeping up with this event just to hear what you guys have to say! I just finished Fangirl, too, a few days ago, and I'm still not totally over how amazing it was. :)
