Dewey's 24 Hour Read-a-Thon discussion

Have you eaten real food yet? (not junk food, or snacks- actual healthy, substantial food) Now is a great time to eat something, refill your water, and get ready for another hour long reading sprint.

If the weather is nice enough, pop your head outside, breathe in some fresh air, drink some water, and then grab your book for our 3rd scheduled reading sprint, starting at the top of Hour 8.

Ready? On the marks..... Get set ...................... Go!!!!!!!!

starting in on this one!

Reading I have not eaten real food yet and probably won’t today. In addition to reading all day, I’ve also given myself permission to eat crap.

Luckily the readathon started right after lunch for me. I had a great lunch. As dinner, I had a sandwich and wine…
Now I am having some sweet potatoes chips…

I started immersive reading (audio and print at the same time, for Growth of the Soil, by Knut Hamsun, so I'll finish the current chapter and then switch to We Do Not Part, by Han Kang.

Definitely need to drink more water, but I have done some outside audiowalking (the weather is amazing here today!) and had lunch.

Joining in. I'm starting Yellowface. Quite a few people seem to enjoy it for Readathon fun, so I will try it out and join in on the fun:)

I did have a breakfast sandwich for breakfast but I've been grazing since then. Chips and dip and veg tray and dip. A little unhealthy with a little healthy.

Made it to page 93! A great second book!

I finished my 2nd book of the day, just a few minutes after the end of Hour 8 We Do Not Part, by Han Kang. Not a 5-star book for me, but not bad, maybe 4.5 stars.

Read 79 pages in The Book Censor's Library (short pages and it's going really fast).

Are you enjoying it? I really liked Yellowface, maybe not quite as much as I liked Babel, but both were 5 stars for me.

Sadly, no reading during this sprint, I was at a birthday party, where they had „real“ food… 😝
