You know, ev...I do hope you have a great readathon. You know, every time I turn around, you have yet another book on your pile that either I have read, am reading, or have plans to read soon. This time, it is The Glass Castle.<br /><br />Oh,must not forget Shadow Rising. I am envious of where the bookmark is placed. I really need to get my butt moving. I am now on chapter three, and I have to say, I am liking the tone of this book better than with Dragon Reborn.<br /><br />I have been feeling pretty sick (cold, and yucky sore throat), maybe I should call in sick tomorrow and just read all day. Hmmm....the mind is twisting. nah...I have to go in, but if my throat does not let me sleep tonight, i will not have a choice.ibeeeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10222760102843468991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-3293075666648704052010-10-07T07:08:35.599-06:002010-10-07T07:08:35.599-06:00I'm so glad you reminded me of Calamity Jack. ...I'm so glad you reminded me of Calamity Jack. That one will be perfect (if I can get my hands on it) for the read-a-thon.<br />I like to focus on snacks rather than meals because they work best at keeping me awake. Even on normal days I usually fall asleep about 20 minutes after I start reading. It makes me so mad!<br />Have fun!

I think I'd better throw some quick and light books into the mix to break it up. Cuz even counting pages instead of books finished, we won't get through that many pages in Bleak House compared to other books! Love you food pile! I need to get thinking about that!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05554217416500328610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-39497609278845159972010-10-06T17:59:21.858-06:002010-10-06T17:59:21.858-06:00The Mist is a great novella, especially if you'...The Mist is a great novella, especially if you're going to be having some rainy weather. I listened to it a thousand years ago on audio tape with my Dad, on a long trip in a snow storm, and it freaked me out. But it's still great in written form on a not so misty day too.

I think <i>Calamity Jack</i> and <i>The Glass Castle</i> are good read-a-thon choices. As is chocolate! :)<br /><br />I'm still making my piles. I picked up some YA books and some graphic novels at the library today. Those have been good read-a-thon choices for me in the past.<br /><br />Happy reading!alisonwonderlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08652716231337658058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-16060412490669756622010-10-06T16:48:21.647-06:002010-10-06T16:48:21.647-06:00Lately everyday has been a readathon for me.
