It is super hard to believe that 2012 is almost over. Where did the year go?
With only a few months left in 2012, Kristen and I are about to hit our annual 'end of year review pile' crunch. I wish we could say otherwise, but we will still have so, so many 2012 review books left. And this year, we REALLY want to try to get some of these books read before the craziness of the new year starts. Thus Review Copy Wipeout was born.
The Goal?
To read as many of your remaining 2012 review pile as you can.
Details:
Beginning October 1st through December 31st, we will be hosting Review Copy Wipeout. There will be all sorts of fun to be had throughout the event.
To sign up, just fill in the Linky below. Please link to your sign up post directly!
You can sign up at anytime before the challenge. Sign ups close October 15th. As a special bonus, those who sign up prior to October 1st, will be entered into a special giveaway. Just our way of saying thanks.
Any book that you have received for review in 2012 counts towards the challenge, regardless if the book is physical or ebook, all genres and lengths are welcome!
Coming closer to the challenge start date, we will also providing a link so that everyone can record their progress and see how everyone else is doing.

I have been wracking my brain about what to do about all these review copies with no end in sight. I was even thinking about hosting a one or two week review book read-a-thon in November, but you ladies have saved me the trouble. Thank you! Now I can host my write-a-thon in November without constraint and still get these review books worked on through the end of the year. Woot!

I need this
Thanks for the great idea! I also receive audiobooks for review. Will they count for this challenge?

We can count audiobooks. If you are wanting to keep track of page numbers, just use the hard cover version, if available.
