I spent yesterday participating in the 24-hour readathon, hosted by Dewey at The Hidden Side of the Leaf. Having finally gotten some sleep, I can say that the day was a tremendous amount of fun. I loved hearing what everyone was reading, how they were doing, and knowing that I was doing the same thing as lots of other bloggers around the world. It was also nice because for once I didn't feel guilty about spending hours and hours reading. I also had the opportunity to be reader of the hour around 7pm, which was awesome, because tons of people visited my blog. Since I didn't get around to charting my final progress last night, I figured I'd do that today. So, here's how I did:
Books Finished:
Douglas Coupland, All Families Are Psychotic
Sue Monk Kidd, When the Heart Waits: Spiritual Direction for Life's Sacred Questions
Kaye Gibbons, A Virtuous Woman
Alex Boese, Elephants on Acid
Joyce Carol Oates, The Female of the Species
Admittedly I had started some of these already. I also read approximately 50 pages of Benjamin Lebert's Crazy, which I can't wait to continue.
So, all in all, I'd say that was a pretty successful readathon. I can't wait for the next one!
