I had such a great time participating in COYER summer vacation, so I decided to join in again! Like last time, pretty much all of the rules have been thrown out of the window! Almost anything goes! and there is a scavenger hunt this time! It is basically a huge read-a-thon YOU CAN SIGN UP HERE So what is COYER all about?
Rules:
Normally you’re only allowed to read eBooks that were less than $5 for COYER, but since this is Summer Vacation you can read whatever you want! Plus there is a really cool scavenger hunt element. You can participate in just normal COYER and/or add on the scavenger hunt portion.
Note: You MUST have a sign-up post!
I am going to do both normal COYER and the scavenger hunt. I am not really sure how many books I will be able to check off, but just trying is half the fun.
You can find the google doc spreadsheet for the scavenger hunt items here

There is SO MUCH going on with this years COYER. I am super excited because I know if I miss out on one thing, there are dozens of other events I can take part in.
