Read-a-Thon: Hours 15, 16, 17&18

October 25th, 2009


What I’m Reading: The House on Tradd Street

Pages Read: 68

Pages Read Total: 399

Books Read: 1

lol-I still only got that one book read. So much for reading those 100 page ones I had so I’d have a higher book count. Oh well. I got hooked on The House on Tradd Street and I’m going right back to it after I log out for the night. It’s creepy and good! Just perfect for me and my attention span.

Other Things Taking up my Time:

  • those cheetos!!!
  • a scary movie on tv…
  • trying to ignore my snoring puppy who is cozily curled up on his pillow making me wish I was the same – lol

What’s next:

I’m logging off for the night just in case I fall asleep but have no fear – I’m still reading. I’ll probably make it at least another couple of hours. It’s midnight here now and I’m feeling pretty good. I imagine I’ll come pretty close to finishing The House on Tradd Street anyway.

Hope everyone is still doing well. I apologize for not doing a whole lot of blog hopping but for some reason I just couldn’t coordinate it all today. Maybe next time around I’ll just be a cheerleader so I can visit. Night everyone!

    And good night from Denmark. I have not been able to make a real blog round until now so I have missed quite a lot of the readathon.

  25. Lisa says:

    Oh, I wanted Cheetos yesterday but then I have to keep a rag handy to keep my hands clean and I was reading several library books so I couldn't risk orange stains. So it was Pringles for me.

  26. Amanda says:

    Glad you had a good time! I only finished one book as well. Many distractions including a sick hubby. :)

    You did great! Those cheetos will get you every time =)
