End of the Year 2013 #ReadingCram
Hosted by DanaSquare or Juliababyjen’s Reading Room
End of the Year 2013 #ReadingCram Read-a-thon December 9th – 22nd
If you are anything like me you have a huge stack (or even bookcases) full of book you haven’t read. Did you have a goal for how many books you wanted to read during the year? Are you behind like I am?
Then this is the perfect time to read as much as you can before the new year!
GOAL
Yeah, I’m an oak. The only readathons I don’t take part in are the ones I don’t know about. I managed 400 pages during DDD, so I’m going to shoot for 900 before the 22nd.
TBR PILE
The kick-off, hosted By Jen @JuliababyJen’s ReadingRoom, is the TBR Challenge: “All you need to do is to create a TBR list for the read-a-thon!”

That’s my tentative TBR list for the next couple weeks, but I don’t keep to lists very well.

NOTES & CHALLENGES
Day 2:
Teaser Challenge, hosted by Book Loving Hippo: “Open the current book you are reading to a random page and post 2 sentences.”
From Death from a Top Hat:
pg. 95 – There would have to be an interruption at a spot like that!
pg. 211 – “That last crack, Inspector,” Merlini objected, “was the unkindest cut of all.”
Day 1:
Decent day of reading. Went out to dinner and put up my “Christmas tree.” Death from a Top Hat might be the first hard-boiled 30′s mystery I’ve read. I’m not sure I’m a fan of the style.
