I’m going to try my best to get through the Read-A-Thon this weekend, because I have a LOT of books to get read. That said, I still have homework and school events.. so my updating may be a little sporatic! First of all, my answers for hour #1!
1)Where are you reading from today?
My list of books includes:
- Practical Jean by Trevor Cole
- Child of Thunder by Mickey Zucker Reichert
- Cinder and Ella by Melissa Lemon
- Domestic Violets by Matthew Norman
- Becoming Marie Antoinette by Juliet Grey
2)Three random facts about me…
- This semester I’m playing Bach, Chopin and Mozart for my piano juries.
- I love mixing cottage cheese and applesauce together. Mmm.
- I randomly have dreams that people come and steal my books off my shelves (ack!).
3)How many books do you have in your TBR pile for the next 24 hours?
- Five!
4)Do you have any goals for the read-a-thon (i.e. number of books, number of pages, number of hours, or number of comments on blogs)?
- I want to hit 1500 pages. Let’s see if I can do it.
5)If you’re a veteran read-a-thoner, any advice for people doing this for the first time?
- Take time to rest your eyes, listen to an audiobook while you go for a walk, make sure you hydrate!

For hour two we’re asked to post a picture representing a character we are reading about right now.. this picture represents Jean, who’s all bloody and entertain-y at the some time – from Practical Jean!
Good luck! Have fun!

Nice list! I like the cover for Practical Jean, it’s classy.
Nice choice of photo for the mini challenge! Thanks for participating!
That’s a scary nightmare – I would go crazy if people stole books off my shelves. I have a hard enough time as it is lending my books out. Anyway happy reading and good luck hitting 1500 pages!
Thank you – and it WAS a scary nightmare!!
