It's time for another 24-Hour readathon. Are you ready?

We will start at 10:00 am eastern time. Find out what time that is in your time zone by using the time zone converter in the sidebar menu (just click the link).

2025 Sci-Fi Summer Readathon - Mid-Event Check-In


How is the sci-fi (or fantasy) reading going? I'm currently reading Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer. Really good. I saw the movie years ago. I'm going to watch it again after I finish the book. I think I'll start Isaac Asimov's Foundation next. Oh, and I'm also reading Slaughterhouse-Five with my book chat group.

Let me know your progress, or leave a link, in the comments.

Quick reminder that our 24-Hour readathon is this Saturday, June 21 at 10:00 am Eastern time. I will do a post on Friday, readathon eve.

Enjoy the rest of the readathon, and I hope you will join us for the 24-Hour event next Saturday.

2025 Sci-Fi Summer Readathon - Let us begin the journey


Here we go! Time to read some great science fiction, or fantasy, shall we? 

If you have any questions about how things work, check out the guidelines in the sidebar menu or the sign up post, or you can always leave me a comment (or send me a message via the contact form). The linky below is the same one as the sign up linky. If you do a starting line/goal post, just add your link again, but be sure to put "goal post" beside your name, i.e. Michelle @ True Book Addict (goals or goal post).

Giveaways are suspended for now due to financial reasons (though I may bring them back in the future).
There will no longer be a wrap-up deadline since prizes are eliminated...meaning wrap-ups are optional, but it's always nice to see what everyone read.

Our social media hashtag is #SciFiJune
Our social media:
Facebook group
Facebook page

Discord - this is an invite link. If you're already a member, you should still be able to access the server

Some orders of business...
  • We have one 24-Hour readathon during each month-long event. The Sci-Fi Summer 24-Hour event will be on Saturday, June 21st at 10:00 am Eastern time. I will be doing most of my updates and check-ins on Discord (invite link to our Discord). Discord is free to join and it would be cool to have some lively chats over there. There will be a post here the day before the 24-Hour event starts. Full details about the 24-Hour readathon events on the Guidelines page.

  • I will post a mid-event check-in here on the blog.
