24-Hour Readathon - A little late to the party...
My favorite thing about the readathon is getting up at 5 a.m. California time and having a solid chunk of time to read, but I'm in the midst of Part 2 of a cold, and thought it would be best to sleep in so it will go away. Fingers crossed.
Now that it's almost 9 a.m. in my neck of the woods, things start to get a little busy, but I'm going to squeeze in some reading when I can. I'm starting with this book:
It's very possible that this is all I will get to, but I've heard it's a lovely book so I think it will make for a wonderful Saturday. Have fun all of you who are participating!

Enjoy your day of reading, Shelley! It sounds like a blast! Major Pettigrew's Last Stand is on my TBR shelf, and I'll be interested to find out how you've liked it. Read on, my friend! Cheers!
ReplyDeleteI haven't read Major Pettigrew's Last Stand but I have heard so many nice things about it. Hope you enjoy it and the readathon. Louise (CheerTrix)
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the party. I should have slept in, but I got up early and will be regretting it I'm sure. What a perfect book you have to read today. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteWell, better late than never to the read-a-thon! I've heard good things about Major Pettigrew's Last Stand also. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteSorry about the cold. I slept in too but I don't have a good excuse. ;) I hear good things about that book, enjoy!
ReplyDeleteHave fun!
ReplyDeleteThat's the same book I'm trying to sneak in today! I hope you enjoy it -- hope you have a great Read-A-Thon!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the readathon! Major Pettigrew's Last Stand is the epitome of a cozy book
ReplyDeleteR! E! A! D!
ReplyDeleteAny book that you can see!
Yuck, sorry you're sick. I hope you feel better soon, and that whatever book(s) you get to today is (are) fantastic!
As much as I dislike waking up so early, the first couple hours of dark & quiet & reading are my favourite, too. Hope you're having a great readathon - and feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteDo your colds just have two parts, so that means you're at the end of it?! Hope so. But, meantime, enjoy your read-a-thon read anyhow. I've heard that's a lovely story. (I've only read one book today too: we are not alone!)
ReplyDeleteHappy reading to you!
Cheering for you from Team Trix
I hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteYes, I really envy your 5 am start time! 7 is fine but it's nice to have a big amount of time before everyone else is up.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the day!!!
