I’m less than 25 pages away from finishing The Austere Academy.  Once I’m finished, I think I’ll start Fahrenheit 451.  Before that however, I wanted to post, along with the normal update, my favorite quote during the read-a-thon so far:

“As I’m sure you know, a good night’s sleep helps you perform well in school, and so if you are a student you should always get a good night’s sleep unless you have come to the good part of your book, and then you stay up all night and let your schoolwork fall by the wayside…” – The Austere Academy by Lemony Snicket

I, fortunately, don’t have any schoolwork to let “fall by the wayside”, but I thought it was very fitting to not only my own habit of staying up way too late reading a book when I should be sleeping but also the fact that, since this is a 24 hour read-a-thon, I’ll be attempting to do exactly that.
