Total pages read this week: 864
Total # of books for the year: 22 of 85. My back pain is gone and I’m up and about again, though taking it easy just to be safe. I participated in a 2-hour mini-readathon while also joining in the #LitsyPartyOfOne. This week, I’ll be doing the week-long mini-readathon and attempting to read for a total of 24 hours by the time I go to bed on Sunday.
What are you reading this week?
Good luck with your readathon, Rachelle! I read some of Paradise Lost as a teen because I wanted to know what the fuss was about, but I only read parts of it. I’m glad your back is better. 🙂 I’m thinking of reading Into the Fire (Night Prince #4) since I reread all the other books in the series but it’s going to be bittersweet because it’s the last book in that series.
