Hour 23 - Read-a-Thon

Well, it's almost done, and I only took about an hour nap during hour 22! On my 4th book still.

Hour 21 - Read a Thon

Still reading Riding Wild by Jaci Burton and watching Third Eye Blind on T101. I have been listening to them and Joshua James ever since the concert at McMorran!

Hour 20 - The Hungry Readers Readathon Challenge

This challenge is at:

http://sjkessel.blogspot.com/2010/04/hungry-readers-readathon-challenge.html
For this challenge, we want to read about or see the foods and drinks that are keeping you awake and reading. Possibilities include answering one or a few of the following questions. What's your reading fuel? And how much of this food or drink have you consumed during the readathon? Do you have a story of how you've had to work to get your page-turning hands on that food or drink? Have a picture to post about the disgusting, satisfying and secret munchie that's keeping your eyes open? Have you recruited a family member to be your food servant? Are you actually considering using an IV of caffeine?

I am drinking Diet Pepsi (on my 3rd 24 oz bottle!).

I have been eating jelly beans, string cheese, frozen pudding, cookies, pretty much anything sweet that I can get my hands on!

I have the TV on for noise (hate a quiet house) and watching VHI Classic Metal!

(Remember Winger!)

What steps did you take to ensure you’d be able to read as much as possible today? I had my books all stacked up and just started reading. I had interruptions, but now everyone is in bed!
Of those steps, which proved to be the most beneficial to your day? Getting all of my books ready!
Is there anything you might do differently next time? Send the kids away for the day and night!

Hour 17 - Read-A-Thon Update - Mini Reading Challenge: Early Favorites

Tell me about the first book you remember loving. I'm talking, soul-searing, blood-boiling, can't-get-enough-of-it love. This book doesn't have to be from your childhood but it can be.Just write up a quick post telling me what the first book you absolutely loved was and why you loved it. If you want to include some stories about your history with this book, please do!

I had a lot of childhood favorites I think, but my favorite book that keeps coming to mind is Twilight. I heard so much hype about this book and didn't read it because I thought I would hate reading about vampires. Boy was I ever wrong. I loved the whole series, and now can't get enough of the vampire books!

Hour 16 - Readathon
