Readathon started at 7:00am CST time this morning, but I had a little puppy who didn't want to come inside - so I got started around 7:30. My husband picked my book - ZomB by Darren Shan - should've known that would be the one that he would pick.
1) What fine part of the world are you reading from today? - I am reading from Illinois
2) Which book in your stack are you most looking forward to? - This is a tough one - maybe Rooms by Lauren Oliver
3) Which snack are you most looking forward to? - Pretzels and Chip Dip - and Dinner out with my husband tonight!
4) Tell us a little something about yourself! - Mom of 3 (22, 20, 9) and one puppy; I work at 2 different libraries and am back in college.
5) If you participated in the last read-a-thon, what’s one thing you’ll do different today? If this is your first read-a-thon, what are you most looking forward to? I have done a couple of other readathons; but have missed the last couple - I won't be reading review books today - I get to pick them all on my own!
I am going to use this page to do my updates -
Started 7:30 - Reading ZomB - Drinking coffee
9:00am - page 74 of ZomB - two cups of coffee - been outside in the rain with the puppy twice. (She was just spayed on Thursday and trying to keep her calm is RIDICULOUSLY HARD!)
10:00am - Finished Zom-B (174 pages) - another cup of coffee and a donut. My son picked the next book - Angel Killer by Andrew Mayne.
11:20am - Been on a pseudo break - was supposed to be at a soccer game right now, but didn't go due to rain and cold. Sister has stopped by and so that has slowed the reading down - also spent some more time outside with the puppy. . . haven't been able to get her to cooperate with me this morning. Only 20 pages into the 2nd book. . .
1:30pm - Just finished lunch - only 70 pages into my book but getting ready to go to a Science Alliance thing at our library. Should be back after 3. Happy reading!
Yay! Have fun!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your reading. I think 7 would be a perfect time to start. Oregon starts at 5. It's a little early for me.
ReplyDeleteoh it has been raining here too! At least it makes it easier to stay home. Have a nice read-a-thon! #TeamKing
ReplyDeleteIt's more cosy to read in rainy weather, don't you think? I hope you like your book and that you're having a great time. Keep going! #TeamKing
