I’ve survived the first 8 hours of Dewey’s 24 Hour Readathon!

• Pages Read: 240
• Books Read: 1 (Sandman, Vol. 1 by Neil Gaiman)
• Mini-Challenges Completed: Cover Escape, Diversity Shelfie, and Roadtrip
• Snacks Consumed: HEB Honey Dinos, cheese and crackers, grapes
• Music playing: Tori Amos’s “Tear in Your Hand”

I should not set goals more often!  So far, I’ve read three times as much as I did by this time during the last readathon.  That may be due to me reading a graphic novel, but I think I’ve also gotten better at finishing up online stuff faster and more efficiently so I can get back to reading.  As far as donations go, I’m up to $2 ($1 for every 100 pages or 1 book read, whichever is greater).  I’ve also done some cheerleading, and I’m about to do some more 🙂

Until my 2nd update, at 11 pm, I’ll continue reading the remaining books on my list:

• The Witching Hour by Anne Rice
• The Wendigo by Algernon Blackwood
• The October Country by Ray Bradbury
• The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson
• Hyde by Daniel Levine
• The Bell Witch by John F.D. Taff
• The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman
• “Goosebumps” audiobooks

Whether you’re participating in the read-a-thon or not, what book(s) are you currently reading?
