Penguin Teen's 24 Hour Read-a-Thon

Hey bookaholics!

Have you all heard about Penguin Teen's 24 hour read-a-thon this weekend? It's in honor of Gayle Forman's newest release, Just One Day. Get all the information here.

From 5:00pm today (Friday, January 11) to 5:00pm tomorrow (Saturday, January 12), readers all over the world will sit down with this book and engage with characters Allyson and Willem. Tweet your progress and talk to other readers using the hastag #JustOneDay. Then, at 7pm on Saturday, Gayle herself will be answering questions on Twitter--tweet her using the same hastag and get in on the conversation!

For those of you who have read Forman's other books, If I Stay and Where She Went, this new release is highly anticipated. If you haven't, you should. And definitely before the movie comes out! Yes, If I Stay is being made into a movie. According to Gayle, it's still in the casting stage with rumors of an up-and-coming young actress in talks to play main character Mia. Want to know more? Read Entertainment Weekly's interview with Gayle here.

You can bet I'll be getting in on this action this weekend. Check Twitter for my own updates and feel free to tweet me @thebooknookblog with your own!

Happy Reading!!
