I am signed up for the 2-hour Read-a-thon for this Saturday. It starts at 7AM my time. You can go to Dewey's Read-a-thon blog to sign up and to get all the info. They have these twice a year, but this will be my first time. I have clued my husband in on it - and I figure since he starts golfing this weekend and will golf just about every Sunday through September - that he can give me this one day! We will see how that goes...
So, I thought that I would share my potential list of books. I am going to throw everything in here that I can think of, so I have a large selection to choose from.
From the library:
Murder, Mayhem and a Fine Man - Claudia Mair Burney (already started)
Foolproofing Your Life - Jan Silvious
The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society - Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrow
Remember to Forget - Deborah Raney
Gone - Michael Grant
ARC's
The Lost Hours - Karen White (already started)
The Girl She Used to Be - David Cristofano

Great list! I only have five books in my readathon pile so we'll see how that goes. Your Noah's Ark header is lovely stitching. :)
Wonderful list! Good luck! :)
Love your list of books!! I see some great titles on there so you should get some seriously good reading done!!
Good luck with the Read-a-thon.
Great list! I was really excited about the read-a-thon earlier in the week.... but now the idea of staying up 24 hours is started to get scary lol ;)
That is a great list to choose from. Good luck!
My daughter and I will be doing the read-a-thon together. When I get home this evening, we'll pull out some books. I'll be starting The Lost Hours on the train this afternoon, so I'll want to finish that. I'm thinking about reading Guernsey, too. We'll see. I just signed up this morning (I caved!) so I'll have to do my planning this evening. Good luck, and have fun!

Coming over to give you an early read-a-thon cheer! Yay!
I finally bit the bullet and signed up at the last minute. I wish it started at seven here, but we start at 6am. I'd better get to bed soon. Happy reading.
