Guys, it’s almost time for the Dewey 24 hour Read-a-Thon! Seriously, I’m so excited! I participated in the bi-annual read-a-thon for the first time in April and I just loved it. This time I’m also hosting a mini-challenge. The reason I loved it so much is because there’s so much support from other readers. It’s the first time I ever spent a day reading and realized that it was a community event.
The stack of books in the picture, (along with my wonderful pup Oliver), are the ones I’m going to attempt to read during the read-a-thon. If one doesn’t strike my fancy or another sounds good, I may add or subtract them as I go.
So, a couple things before the reading begins tomorrow.
1) If you aren’t participating, I apologize in advance for the multiple posts. I’m sure I won’t post every hour, but I definitely post more than I normally would over a weekend.
2) If you are participating, good luck! Read a variety of books, have snacks on hand and remember to have fun. Make sure you stop by for my mini-challenge during hour 4.
3) If you want more info about the event, visit the event website here. There’s still time to join in!

Have fun with the readathon!
I love that picture. Such a smart, literary doggy! I shall be reading away on Saturday, but have decided to stay away from the computer. I get nothing done otherwise!
HI PUPPY!! What a beauty!!
Can't wait to readathon with you tomorrow. ;)
Have fun and good luck! I did it back in April too and had so much fun, but unfortunately I can't participate tomorrow. I do plan on getting on a couple hours of solid reading time in though, and checking in to see how the read-a-thoners are doing :)
We have always lived in the castle is an awesome book! :D And please forgive my absolute laziness at capitalizing that entire title, haha!
Sandy - He started licking the books after I took this shot.
Brenna - Stop in and say hi if you want!
Trish- Me too!
Amanda - I've heard such great things about it. I bought it while I was on vacation in the south. It seemed fitting.
I'm participating!! I only have two books planned, but it should take the whole 24 hours. I'm that slow a reader!! :p
Have fun, Melissa!!
Oliver is a doll! Oscar helped me during one of the readathons... I will be in and out but I hope to come by here and give you a cheer tomorrow. :)
