[Interest Check] Review-athon

Basically; we'd pick a month (I was thinking September or October but can be talked around to something else) and folks would sign up to post a review to the comm on a day of that month. This would not mean that folks not signed up can't post reviews that month! booknook is open to reviews 24/7 and that would not change---but if you like Fake Internet Deadlines and making things feel a Bit More Official and that you're Doing Things Together, it might be fun!
So there would be a sign-up post. There wouldn't be any minimum requirements for the Reviews For The Event aside from 'needs to have a header with clear information regarding the book's title, author and any applicable content warning' and 'spoilers needs to be behind a cut or an accordion' as well as any other applicable Posting Guideline. Those are already the guidelines for all reviews, so nothing new.
You do need to be a member to post to the comm.
If you don't post a review on the day you signed up for, nothing will happen :D This is intended to be a low-pressure, fun event, and not meant to put undue pressure on you. Again, booknook is always open to reviews! You can post it later, or not at all. You also would not be required to mention in your sign-up which book you're intending to review so you can change your mind until the very last second.
Potentially, you could sign up for, say, a max of posting 3-5 reviews, and pick a different day for each review to spread them out. And days could be double/triple claimed depending on how many people sign up.
Again, you would still be allowed to post a review during this month (even on a claimed day) without signing up! You would not be punished for not posting anything on your claimed day!
So is this something you would like here?
