Last year was the tenth anniversary of Cannonball Read, commemorating the first CBR where Prisco challenged AlabamaPink, a fellow Pajiban who was fighting leukemia, to read 100 books in a year.

CBR11 Has Begun!
We’ve made improvements to the fields where you enter the information about the book(s) in your review.
