Total hours spent reading: 18
Total pages read: 827
Books read: We Were Liars by E. Lockhart, Yellow Moon by David Searls, Blight by Mark Sonders and half of Incubus by Ray Russell
OK, so I didn't quite make it to the goal of reading for 24 hours, or my goal of reading five books, but I came pretty close. I only read about five hours on Saturday because my boyfriend had the day off and was a huge distraction. Next time I would definitely try to get most of my reading done on Saturday so I don't have to try and catch up an absurd amount on Sunday. I'm still proud of myself though because I read more pages during this readathon than any other I've participated in.

24 in 48 Readathon
Since I love readathons so much - and don't want to wait until October for the next one - I'm going to be trying a new one, the 24 in 48 Readathon. The idea is to read a total of 24 hours over an entire weekend as opposed to staying up a full 24 hours to read. I plan on reading 12 hours Saturday and 12 hours Sunday.
What I plan on reading this weekend:
- Blight by Mark Sonders
- Incubus by Ray Russell
- Summer of Fear by Lois Duncan
- Harriet Said... by Beryl Bainbridge
- We Were Liars by E. Lockhart
- Yellow Moon by David Searls (on my Kindle)
- The Manitou by Graham Masterton (on my Kindle)
My goal is to finish five books to catch up to my Goodreads Reading Challenge.
