Read-a-Thon: Hour 1

It's 5am in the Pacific Northwest, and here I am starting another readathon. I am not a morning person, so...yawn. The coffee is brewing.

Here's my answers to the opening meme:

1)Where are you reading from today?

Washington State, USA

2)Three random facts about me…

I'm a figure skater (in fact, I'll be going to the rink later, with a book)

I teach history

My favorite color is lavender, but you might have guessed that from my blog.

3)How many books do you have in your TBR pile for the next 24 hours?

Too many, at least 10.

4)Do you have any goals for the read-a-thon (i.e. number of books, number of pages, number of hours, or number of comments on blogs)?

No, it's much less daunting if I just plan to read.

5)If you’re a veteran read-a-thoner, any advice for people doing this for the first time?

Have tasty snacks. Read the sort of books you normally plow through and can't stop.
