**THE STEAMPUNK READATHON IS BEING POSTPONED DUE TO MY SON AND HIS GIRLFRIEND NEEDED TO COME HERE TO SEEK SHELTER FROM HURRICANE IRMA. NEW DATES ARE TO BE DETERMINED**
Last year I hosted my first Steampunk Readathon and because it was so much fun I've decided to bring it back again this year! The readathon will run Sept 9 through Sept 15. I have created a Twitter specifically for the readathon @Steampunkathon.
This will be a low pressure challenge. Maybe you are new to the genre of steampunk so only want to read one book. That's okay! I still want you to participate. You may even already be reading steampunk books and not know it.
Here are some suggested steampunk books:
For a full list visit Steampunk 101, Goodreads (books shelved under steampunk) and Goodreads (Best Steampunk books).
