Good luck this read-a-thon! I'll be following you throughout the day to cheer you on. 🙂
The read-a-thon is over and I'm just getting around to commenting back. I just wanted to thank you for your cheers.
Yay Hunger Games! What fabulous 'thon books. Have a great readathon!
Thank you, I had a great time! I was so glad I picked The Hunger Games Trilogy for the read-a-thon, they are fabulous books!
ooo, Hunger Games! I should have grabbed the rest of the series.
Have a good time!
I hope you do! I loved Catching Fire as much as its predecessor and think Mockingjay is outstanding!
That seems like a fine job aspiration for a ten-year-old. I wanted to breed dachshunds. Like..full-time.
MIDWEST REPRE-SENT. And wait, where in the Midwest? I'm in Illinois.
I thoroughly approve of your list. The only reading I'm getting done today is on a train to Milwaukee (and it's obvs WiW, because SO far behind for Monday).
HAVE FUN!!!
I thought so, being rude to so many people in one day sounded so appealing. Although, breeding dachshunds sounds very respectable too.
I am sooo far behind on WiW too, I'll be playing catch-up today.
On a side note, Illinois represent!
Yep the computer is plenty distracting. I get on every other hour for a certain amount of time. I try balancing reading with being supporting and social 🙂
I surprised myself by spending almost no time on the computer, being completely anti-social.
Great choices. Happy reading!
Thank you!
You are doing great! Hope you are enjoying Catching Fire.
Thank you! Catching Fire was awesome!
I drank a LOT OF green tea yesterday 🙂 In fact I am going to today too 🙂
