“What do you like best about readathons? Do you have any readathon traditions or rituals? If this is your first readathon, what do you like so far? Discuss away!”

I love the idea of reading and the relaxation it provides for a whole day, week, whatever.  I also have a tendency to get lax with my reading and gives me a chance to catch-up on any reading I may be as sometimes (looking at my reading list) I fall behind on the series I like reading.  I don’t really have any traditions or rituals.  Maybe drinking excessive amounts of tea?  But otherwise nothing special.
Starting Stats: 8:30 am
Currently Reading: The Golden Compass by Phillip Pullman
Starting Page: 1
Cups of tea: 1

  1. I like the excuse it gives me for reading, so I can be more relaxed, too. I hope you're enjoying The Golden Compass!

  2. I like that you're counting how many cups of tea you have during the readathon! Tea goes so well with reading, I wonder just how much we tea-drinking readers consume while we're buried in books.
