We are almost done with the readathon. As we always do, we'll close out this readathon with one last hour-long reading sprint. One last chance to finish another book during the readathon, or make good progress in whatever book you are focusing on now. What book have you chosen to read for this last hour?

Cathy  (cathepsut) | 567 comments Not totally sure yet, either The Quantum Curators and the Fabergé Egg or Autonomous. I won‘t finish either during the readathon, but I am making good progress.

I am finishing The Eyes and the Impossible by Dave Eggers and Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson. I will have read the books I most wanted to read during the readathon.

I am sticking with my audiobook for Hour 24. I thought about trying to read a paperback for the last hour, but my eyes are tired. So, I'm listening to The Beckoning Lady, by Margery Allingham. At 2x speed it will take about 4.5 hours, so I will have to finish it tomorrow.

Lamilla | 818 comments I think of starting Кто читает сердце тьмы. Первый профайлер Южной Кореи в погоне за серийными убийцами by 권일용 , looks quite interesting and has the dark mood suitable for the season. If not, I'll continue with the books I started earlier during the readathon!

I read Autonomous some time ago, would recommend The Quantum Curators over it :D

My internet is becoming its usual unreliable early morning self, and my eyes are tired, so I'm settling in with my audiobook for the rest of the readathon. Thanks for joining in, everyone. Feel free to keep reading if you wish. I'll almost certainly resume reading when I wake up tomorrow too. All our readathon channels and discussions will remain available (probably til next summer, definitely til March realistically). Happy reading, everyone!

I liked it!

Yes, agreed. Quantum Curators is fluffier and with a less believable main character. Still, under an hour of that one left, so I‘ll probably finish it later today.
