I had to much fun during the readathon however I only lasted until 5am est. but that beats what I did last time staying away until 2am. Planning to do the entire 24 hours next time.
*high five to myself* for reading 3 books. I was so very proud, if I had stayed away I probably would have done 4 books but regardless that’s 3 books off my TBR List and One books away from reaching my Goodreads Goal.
I have some major plans for next time and a better updating post. Taking a bunch of breaks helped out so much this time around and doing a few 1 hour reading sprints by myself really got me through most of the books.
Thank you to Melanie and Carol for being my biggest cheerleaders. I couldn’t have lasted as long as I did without you awesome gives cheering me on. Thank you! <3
I really can’t wait for the next read-a-thon….I think I’m going to take a nap 🙂
These are the books I read so far:
- Maddy West and the Tongue Taker by Brian Falkner
- Pip Batlett’s Guide to Magical Creatures by Jackson Pearce and Maggie Stiefvater
- Jackaby (Jackaby #1) by William Ritter
Charity Total:
The total I will be donating to the charity is $75.

Thanks for stopping by to check out my progress!
Hoping to last the entire 24 hours!
Three books is amazing. I vary so much from readathon to readathon with how well I do. I made it through one whole book, the last 20 pages of one and the first 100 of another. I think I had a great readathon. It is one of my favorite days of the year. I always set at least some time aside to read.
Good thing it only happens like twice a year or we wouldn’t make it…lol. Since I was sick and really didn’t make it very far I didn’t even do an end post…I think I made it through one graphic novel and bits and pieces of a couple a books. 🙂 Stupid cold! 🙁 It’s the hacking up a lung that is getting me down. 🙁
You did awesome with three books..almost got your goodreads goal! You might need to up it next year. 😉
I don’t think I could do it more than twice a year but I did have fun. I can’t wait to do it again I loved the books I read and was so happy I wasn’t disappointed with any of them.
Dang, I would have been all over this before I started seriously treating my sleep disorder. In fact I had more than a few undocumented >24 hour readathons.
Nice work!
It was fun but today I am really paying for it Lol
Thank you 🙂
$75 is fantastic! And 3 books in under 24 hours is excellent. GO YOU!!!
Thank you! 🙂
That’s great reading 3 books in one day, you definitely got a lot of reading done! I want to join once, maybe next time. Although I am not sure if I can manage to get anywhere close to the full 24-hour, I need my sleep too much.
I was so happy about it. That is the one reason I love the readathon, I really wish I could do that normally. I probably could if I really tried. You should try joining you don’t have to last the entire 24 even just the day until you go to sleep would be cool, lots of people do that. It’s just an excuse to read all day with no interruption.
Great job and $75 is awesome number. Glad I could help.
Thank you again! I know I did it all over but you have no idea how appreciated it is 🙂 <3
Yay! Based on last time and this time, you’ll totally make it during the next one! And $75 for your charity is awesome!
Dexter!!! I wish I had a reading buddy for the late hours, but the pups all went to bed with my mom around midnight. 😛
I hope so 🙂
Very happy about the $75.
He was a very good boy but he’s very attached to me so even on a normal day he’s my trip over him every two seconds buddy.
