Read-a-thon: That’s all for me folks!

With church tomorrow morning, I knew I wasn’t going to be doing the whole 24 hours.  It’s now about 2:25am my time, and though I just started an interesting new book, The Janissary Tree, it’s time to call it quits and get some sleep.

The read-a-thon has been lots of fun, and I’m happy with how I spent my day.  I think I’ll still have some nice spans of time for reading in the rest of this long weekend too.

Total pages read: 1197

Books finished today:

A Dark Dividing by Sarah Rayne (only the last half was read during the read-a-thon)

Boo by Rene Gutteridge

Ella Minnow Pea by Mark Dunn

River Secrets by Shannon Hale

Total time spent reading: approximately 12 hours

My favorite book read during the read-a-thon was definitely Ella Minnow Pea.

For those who are continuing on until the end, I salute you!  Good night and good luck!

  3. Congrats on all the reading you got done, and thanks for stopping by my blog to leave a comment! Ella Minnow Pea is such a funny book; I thought it was a great mine exercise when I read it awhile ago.

  4. You did great during the read-a-thon! I feel asleep around 10 pm and didn’t wake up again until five minutes before the read-a-thon ended! I think I need to read Ella Minnow Pea soon. It seems like everyone in the blogisphere loves it! Have a great week!

  5. Thanks all for the nice comments!

    Kim – Ella Minnow Pea is certainly very clever, which makes my brain happy.

    Vasilly – you should! You will probably zip right through it as I did.
