How is your readathon going so far? We have been reading for several hours now. If you have not taken a break yet, you really should stand up, move around, drink something, eat something, pet the reading buddies, etc.

Now, grab your book for our second scheduled reading sprint. We start at the top of the hour, and the sprint officially ends at the end of Hour 4.

On your Marks!!! Get Set!!!! Go!!!!!!!!!

I have an hour and 15 minutes left in my book, so if I use it for the Hour 8 sprint, I'll have it done at the end of that sprint.

Lamilla | 818 comments Межвидовой барьер. Неизбежное будущее человеческих заболеваний и наше влияние на него (Сенсация в науке) (Russian Edition) by David Quammen was enough to keep me busy during the sprint. The book is quite thick, but I'm close to 50% already.

Very much enjoyed the Kinsey Millhone series! So sad she died before publishing Z. I mostly listened to the audiobooks and hated when they changed narrators!
