#Readathon Updates
Hours 1-4: 8am -12pm I started strong with 4 hours of almost steady reading (with a few breaks for twitter & texts) & a few cups of coffee (in my Powell's mug!).
During that time I finished An Absolutely Remarkable Truth by Hank Green (our October book club selection) & also read Positively Izzy by Terry Libenson.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Wow. Just wow.
& the ending?! š¤

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Wondering if readers will understand the ending...
Hour 5: 12pm I took a quick break to fix lunch (plain Ramen for the boy; fancy leftover Ramen with toppings for me) and snuck in 2 picture books while I ate!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Love this story! What a great story to share with students to inspire them to invent something as a solution to a problem.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Such a cute story combined with the illustrations make it a beautiful, sweet book to share with students.
Hour 6: 1pm I took another break after lunch to visit an orchard down the road for some fall treats with the family (pumpkins, apples, apple dumplings, apple cider, peach slushies...)
Hour 7: 2pm Read a bit outside (with my slushie), completed my first BINGO, & started this blog entry!

Hour 8: 3pm I stayed upstairs in my office reading chair & read Saga, volume 7. I still have 2 more in this series to read. There will be 10 total books.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
the series continues... & what an ending...
Hour 9: 4 pm It just might be time for a nap.... but I still read my last picture book in the stack.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Really love the combination of the hand drawn illustrations with actual pictures from Venice.
Hour 10: 5 pm I drove to pick up pizza for supper but was able to listen to the audio book I'm currently reading with my ears: They Both Die at the End by Adam Silvera.

Hour 11: 6 pm Listened more to They Both Die at the End after supper
(Order yours here!)
Hour 13: 8 pm Watched the 25th anniversary of Hocus Pocus (& reading during commercial breaks...)
Hour 14: 9 pm Still watching Hocus Pocus but reading a bit of Jodi Picoult's A Spark of Light.
Hour 15 - 24: who am I kidding... It was a great read-a-thon but I'm out!
