Oh well. I need to host my own read-a-thon in the dark days of January when there's nothing to do and nowhere to go! You spent an impressive amount of time reading, and you're lucky that you read two amazing books back-to-back. Sounds like a great read-a-thon to me!Jen at Introverted Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04804424405257091608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-17083102138424597022011-04-11T10:10:12.629-06:002011-04-11T10:10:12.629-06:00I love reading in bed but oftentimes I figure out ...I love reading in bed but oftentimes I figure out real quickly that it just puts me to sleep!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-55200413465117931342011-04-11T10:09:07.013-06:002011-04-11T10:09:07.013-06:00I'm with you, I couldn't believe how quick...I'm with you, I couldn't believe how quickly the hours flew by!Melissa (Avid Reader)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02119628715475021774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-79696835144118459832011-04-10T22:03:02.366-06:002011-04-10T22:03:02.366-06:00Considering that you had some "life interrupt...Considering that you had some "life interruptions," I think you had a pretty good Readathon! I agree with you re: advance posting of the opening meme - that would be a great idea. I pre-scheduled my own starter post, but never did the "official" opener; if it had gone up ahead of time, I would have, though.<br /><br /><i>If I Stay</i> was in my Readathon stack, but I didn't get to it - I only read two books too, but they were both really good.Florindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09789402061034734894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-18540310534807599542011-04-10T19:02:24.664-06:002011-04-10T19:02:24.664-06:00It may not have panned out the way you envisioned ...It may not have panned out the way you envisioned it but...you lived your life around it and I think that's awesome. For the most part I find it difficult to fit in a Read-a-thon that I did not schedule. Life happens and goes on. I haven't picked up a book all weekend but I have made memories!!That's the best trade of all. <br /><br />I enjoyed If I Stay but I haven't tried Skellig. Let us know how you felt and what it's about. I think I have a David Almond phobia or something. <br /><br />I was home sick one day this week and read Bones of Faerie by Janni Lee Simner. I guess that was MY read-a-thon.<br /><br />Hope spring comes to your valley soon. I am coming up for Women's Conference in 3 weeks. I need to know what to wear!?!?! Snow, spring, snow, spring?<br /><br />Relax now...Gayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08595597461575553728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5566869117228903343.post-60752518802230799742011-04-10T17:10:21.730-06:002011-04-10T17:10:21.730-06:00OMG I agree with you - I hate keeping track of eve...OMG I agree with you - I hate keeping track of everything!
