If you have an update you'd like to share, please leave a link in comments or just a comment. :) If you want to see the entire schedule for the read-a-thon or still need to enter the giveaways, you can go here.
The giveaway officially ends at midnight, although some of the giveaways don't close at that time. I will have finished my last book for this read-a-thon by then, which is Find Me. I was going to wait to post this until Sunday morning, but I've decided I'm not going to read something else after I finish Find Me, so I'm just going to go ahead and post this now.
Here is my update for Saturday:

MY ORIGINAL GOALS:
- Finish one book every two days.
- Read at least four of my review books, all my blog tour books that I need to (four of them), and two books from NetGalley or Edelweiss. This would be a total of 10 books read in two weeks.
- Participate in at least two challenges.
- Visit all of the participants at least once during the read-a-thon.
- Visit at least half of the author guest posts.
THIS IS HOW I DID:
Review Books Read (goal of 4): The Perfect Guy
Blog Tour Books Read (goal of 4): Concealed in the Shadows, My Own Mr. Darcy, Cassie's Cowboy Crave, and Find Me - MET
NetGalley/Edelweiss Books Read (goal of 2): The Book of Broken Hearts (although Find Me is from Edelweiss, but I'm not double counting books)
Total Finished Books (goal of 10): 11 1/2 - MET
Total Challenges Participated In (goal of 2): 2, but visited them all - METTotal Blogs Visited (goal of 92): 110 visits, but didn't get all of the blogs. I did get everyone who posted a comment and who linked up an update or goals. I am planning on still visiting some of those that participated when I have time.

So, I could have done better. I'm planning on reading a lot this next week too and seeing if I can get most of my review books read, along with the books I have for tours. I've got some reviews to write up now too.
Overall, I had a great time and am definitely glad that I helped to put this read-a-thon together. How about you? How did you do?
I want to say thank you to everyone who participated. There were about double the amount of you then I thought there would be for something that I didn't do a lot of prep for and for it being my first time. I especially want to say thanks to Laura for co-hosting. She is seriously awesome!!!
I'm planning on doing the Tackle Your TBR Read-a-thon every year at this time. Do you have any suggestions? Do you want to join us again next year?
