Dewey's Read-a-thon

24 October 2009


Why haven't I signed up for the 24 hour Read-a-thon, which is going to start soon?! (Okay, 9pm, which is in...10 hours. Nevermind, now. It's noon.) Whhhyyy?! Okay, I have no idea why too. I've signed up both as a reader and a cheerleader, so I'll probably be spamming your inboxes with lots of updates and comments. Here's the list of books I'm planning to hit in the next 24 hours:

Wait Until Twilight by Sang Pak



Everything Sucks by Hannah Friedman


Dancing With Ana by Nicole Barker


Defenders of The Scroll by Shiraz


Foreign Tongue by Vanina Marsot


Here's a cartoon from Sophisticated Dorkiness.



Hee, hee.

Hour 1 Meme Mini-Challenge
Where are you reading from today?
Singapore!

3 facts about me …
I'm taking French as an extra module in school just because. :D
I just turned 18... oh wait, 20 days ago. Hee!
When people ask me "Why do you like blogging about books?", I have to resist the urge to ask them "Why do you like to blog about your life?"

How many books do you have in your TBR pile for the next 24 hours?
5, but my reading speed is pretty fast, so we'll see!

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)?
At least 10 books, 2000 pages, 24 hours, 361 comments.

If you’re a veteran read-a-thoner, Any advice for people doing this for the first time?
It's not my first time taking part in a readathon, so my advice would be that an audiobook (of allowed) is helpful if you need to do chores or have some shut eye; you don't waste any reading time!
