I just joined the 24 hour Read A Thon with my daughter. This will be the first time I have done anything like this so I am totally excited to see how this goes over. Thanks to Deborah for giving a little push. My mind has been racing through my TBR pile to see what books I can read. While I know my pile of finished books will not be large, I'm hoping to see more than one or two. :) I'm totally not a fast reader. I will post a little later on what books are going to be in my challenge stack. I'm so totally excited......this is going to be so much fun!!! :)

  1. Hi Loralei: I'm a cheerleader for the first time too! You're in my first group to cheer for, so, for hour one: congratulations on signing up, and I hope the next 24 hours are filled with books, and people talking about books for you! Mostly, lovely reading time for you.

    One day I hope to be able to participate to, but my children are too young to let me have 24 hours to read....

    Do you have any books lined up? What is your daughter going to read? That is so sweet and lovely, that your daughter is joining you. How wonderful! Sharing a love of reading...well now I'm jealous that my daughter isn't quite old enough to read yet, but I have plans for the next few years! lol Thanks! what books does your daughter have lined up?

    I hope you are enjoying being part of world-wide reading event. It's awesome, and I think you are too for being part of it.
