i did a quick update at the beginning of the hour then went right to reading. finished my book by 11:30 and spent the rest of the time cheerleading. i have hit my reading goal for the readathon. but that doesn't mean i am going to stop reading!
i may try to post some reviews but my main goal now is to visit everyone's blog at least once.

sarah's mini-challenge

you know you're in a readathon:

when each time your fiance asks your opinion on something you respond-i'm not thinking today. i'm reading.

when you take pictures of stacks of books and your snacks to spice up your posts.

when you look in your sidebar and your post count for the month has spiked dramatically because of all the hourly updates.

when you are glued to your computer and the clock, keeping rabid track of the time, have five different windows open so you check for the hourly updates on the main page, post your own hourly updates, participate in challenges, cheerlead other readers on while simultaneously reading, facebooking, twittering AND keeping track of page counts, minutes read, and minutes spent on the computer on a little notepad.

when you wait several hours to refill your water glass or ingest food because you are trying to cram more pages into the minutes.

when you stop making sense.
