Hour 24 - Half-way point

Well, I don't have stellar results so far, but I'm hoping to do better tomorrow.  I'm sitting at around 4 hours audio and 1 1/2 hours reading.

Finished the last 106 pages of The Snake, the Crocodile, and the Dog
Finished We Should All Be Feminists
In progress:  Born to Run and What Do We Do Now?

Going to read a bit more before giving in to my progressive sleepiness!

Book Spine Poetry

Here's my poem (ok, maybe it's more of a statement), themed for today!

The best of the best
The women
Unbroken
Here comes trouble

Hour 13 Update

Well, it's pretty clear I'm not going to make the 24 hour goal, but that's ok. I'll just do the best I can and have fun!

So far, I'm at:

3 hr, 15 min  (audiobook - finished up The Snake, the Crocodile, and the Dog)

Off to read some printed pages now...

Intro Survey

1. Where in the world are you reading from this weekend? Snowy Utah
2. Have you done the 24in48 readathon before? No, first time.
3. Where did you hear about the readathon, if it is your first?  I'm not sure where I first heard about this - it could have just been an Internet search on "Readathon"!
4. What book are you most excited about reading this weekend? Hmmm, maybe a tie between Born to Run and Moonglow.
5. Tell us something about yourself.  I have two grown daughters (one of whom lives in D.C and is marching today) and a hubby who planned his business travel to be away this weekend so I could read (just kidding, but it worked out nicely!)  As a huge sports fan, I will be checking in on tennis, basketball, and football, but with the sound turned off and an audiobook in my ear!
6. Remind us where to find you online this weekend.  https://blogbysherryann.blogspot.com and listy @readerann

24 in 48 Readathon Coming Up!

Looks like I'll be able to participate in this Readathon for the first time! It's on January 21/22 and looks like a lot of fun (but how can a Readathon NOT be fun?!)  I seriously doubt I'll be able to make the 24 hours of reading, but I'll give it my best shot. Will be back with a book stack after some perusal and ponderance of my printed pages (hee hee - alliteration is my ally :)
