Coffee: One cup drunk. (Plus more poured!)
Books Read: Monkey and Me by Emily Gravett (picturebook), The Cow Loves Cookies by Karma Wilson (picturebook) and The Village Garage by G. Brian Karas (picturebook).
Book Currently Reading: Anything But Typical by Nora Raleigh Baskin (50 pages to go!)
Snacks Consumed Since Last Update: None! I'm becoming a hungry bear. (And after reading The Cow Loves Cookies, I want COOKIES! That would clearly be the breakfast of readathon champions.)
Oh I really enjoyed Anything But Typical, but I listened to the audio book. Sounds like you're off to a great start!
ReplyDeleteAnything but Typical is in my reading stack for the read-a-thon! You're doing great!
ReplyDeleteHope you're having fun reading! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteread, read, read
ReplyDeletedon't think of it as a deed!
(Non)traditional Buddhist readathon blessing:
ReplyDeleteJust as the books fill the shelves,
Pile together on the floor and stack up on the table
So may the joy of the readathon
Flow forth to brighten your day and lift your spirit.
Books already read, books in progress and books yet to be read.
By the power of every word on the page
May your book be delightful,
As scary as Lovecraft’s Cthulhu
Or as sweet as a box of See’s candy.
Let the power of the images evoked by words
Keep you stay awake long through the night
May no obstacle impede
Your day filled with books.
For all of those who are reading today
Who follow in the path of Dewey
May your day be filled with the four blessings
Of fabulous books, tasty snacks, comfy chairs and joy.
