HalloweenOverkill Readathon Adventure 2011

Where you at ghouls?  So far all I have participating in the readathon is myself and Melissa over at http://littlemisszombie.blogspot.com/.  I'd really like a few more people to make this a really fun adventure, however if it is just myself and a few others that will be fine as well.  I will be creating the Readathon page this weekend so you can keep track of what has been read for what categories.  If you wanna see what Melissa has chosen for her books head over to http://littlemisszombie.blogspot.com/ and check out her picks.  Below are the picks I have made for the categories.

The cover images I used above obviously belong to the respective copyright owners, but I thought I'd show the actual covers of the versions I would be using in case any body else wanted to read the exact copies I own. Thanks and let me know if you're interested!!!!
