Hello bookworms!!
Apparently I can’t completely stay away from blogging so I am just going to post when I have something I want to share with you guys. So I’m not 100% back but I’m not 100% gone either. Anyways Lili and Noriko have brought back Day-A-Thon. It’s their version of a 24 hour readathon that they host the last weekend of every month. I decided to join in this time because I am hoping it will help me get through 2 books before I start the Hocus Pocus Readathon in October.
This round is going to start at 8 p.m. your time zone on Friday the 27th and will end at 8 p.m. your time zone Saturday the 28th. I never stay up all night when doing 24 hour readathons so I will read until about 10 p.m. tonight because the season premiere of Blue Bloods is coming on and I can’t miss that. The majority of my reading will hopefully get done on Saturday. Here are the 2 books I am hoping to get through.
As of right now I am 103 pages into this 424 page book. After I finish with this post I plan on reading some of this tonight before bed so by the time the readathon starts I will be a little further into it. This is the book I am not so sure I will be able to finish because it is slow going but I will try.
This is a short novella that I am reading with a group on Instagram and I have no doubts that I will be able to finish this one Saturday. I was already planning to read this one Saturday before Lili posted her announcement so that worked out.
That’s the only 2 books I hope to read this weekend. What about you? Are you participating in Day-A-Thon? What are your reading plans?
Thank you for joining us, Misty! I’m so glad you’re participating! Good luck on your two books, and I think 2 books is as far as I can go too lol 😂

Enjoy your planned books Misty. I will be at a retreat this weekend, so will not get much reading in at all.

Thank you I hope you enjoy your retreat. If I am away from my house I don’t tend to get much reading done either.

Misty!!! I really miss you and our chats during our readathons. 🙂 🙂 Glad you can join us this month. Let’s chat later. It’s12 mn here and I’m dozing. It’s because I’m a little drunk. It’s my cousin’s bday and I came from her party before starting the readathon.

I know I’ve been missing our talks as well and being able to cram in as much reading as I can. Sounds like you enjoyed yourself!! It is 12 pm here. I still have 8 hours before I start. Happy reading to you as well!

Hehe. I did enjoy, probably more than I should, I should’ve considered I have a readathon to do later. 🙂 But it was my favorite cousin’s bday so…
I’m sure we’ll be able to chat and read together again soon. 🙂 🙂

Hey I don’t blame I probably would have done the same thing.
Normally I start with y’all which would be 8am for me but I had some stuff to do this time so I’m starting later than y’all this time.

I am trying to read the novella this weekend too. I don’t know why I keep putting my “required” reading off until the deadline or close to it. Weird how this always happens to me, even when I was in school. Best of luck in finishing these two read over the next 24 hours!

I procrastinated in school all the time. I kind of do it with reading as well because I like to have things fresh in my mind for the discussion/reviewing.

Yeah, I don’t want to read too early either. I will end up forgetting things. My brain is like a sieve sometimes.

I have the worst memory. I literally forget what I did/said 5 minutes ago sometimes.
