Participate in Reading Sprints and Twitter Chats

We’re hosting reading sprints for this season’s One Book, One Chicago selection on our Twitter account (@1book1chicago).

Reading sprints are dedicated sessions where you and other Chicagoans can set aside a free hour to read together. You can participate from anywhere—home or school, sitting on the bus or hanging out at a cafe. Simply set aside some time to read The Third Coast, then take to Twitter and tweet about it using the hashtags #OBOC and #readingsprint. We’re interested in seeing how many pages you read, what your favorite quotes are, photos of where you are reading, and your opinions about the book. We'll also be hosting special guests for Twitter chats about the book and its themes. Join the discussion with us at our Twitter account (@1book1chicago), and hear what your fellow readers have to say too!

Reading sprints for Part 1 of our online reading experience begin soon!  Check back for more information!
