The readathon was a blast and it took me out once it was over. I was reading, promptly, at 7 am Saturday morning and went to bed a few minutes after 7 am Sunday morning. Then I was up again at 11:15 am. Huh? What?! Mom duties called and we visited my parents for a while. I was back in bed about 7:30 pm and slept until 8:30 am this morning. Now, I've gotten too much sleep. But it was all in good fun.

Here's what I read:
Donovan's Word Jar by MonaLisa DeGross (Children's fiction)
Quicksand by Nella Larsen (novella)
Oroonoko by Aphra Behn (novella) (didn't finish this one)
The First Part Last by Angela Johnson (YA fiction)
Night by Elie Wiesel (novella)
From The Notebooks of Melanin Sun by Jacqueline Woodson (YA fiction)

Total pages read: 636 pages
Hours spent reading: I'm guessing about 21. I never stopped for more than 15 minutes to record a vlog or feed the kid. And I wasted about 45 minutes on 2 challenges. I didn't nap either.

I'm disappointed with my reading totals. I think I got bogged down a little by Oroonoko and Quicksand. Next time, I'll read longer novels. I think I'd feel more accomplished if I'd read the same amount of pages but of 2 or 3 full novels. Needless to say, I can't wait to do it again.

Thanks a million times over to the organizers of the readathon: Eva, Nymeth, Hannah & Trish!
And thanks so much to all the cheerleaders. I really appreciated every one stopping by and cheering me on in my first readathon.
