Lucky. I get tired easily, especially if I had a lot to do that day.

Amanda | 4527 comments This sounds fun, but I have to work that entire weekend so I will not be able to participate this round. Maybe I will be able to next time.

That's the opposite of my father. He always tries to get me to go to sleep.

message 62: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments This one sounds like so much fun! I might be embarrassed by how many pages I log. I usually read for a period of time and when my eyes start crossing I close them and doze maybe 10-30 minutes and then I'm good to go again. I am excited for this one!

GREAT idea girls!


message 63: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments thanks Vicki ! We will keep each other motivated !

Lilac  (lilac_wales) | 11 comments I can't participate this time because I have school on Monday but if you have another one I'll almost definitely join in :)


message 67: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Aww :( We'll miss you Lilac!

P...."


Well I guess! If you want to! It probably will be harder without having anybody to chat too but maybe you like t better because of your shyness!

Good luck! When are you going to do it? Happy birthday by the way!

Okay good luck! Have fun!


message 70: by Mehsi (new)

Mehsi Aww this sounds like loads of fun. But no clue how to stay up 24 hours, especially since I need to work again on monday. I know the last time I stayed up that long, after that I slept for 12 hours and was sick for a day. :\

But I will be looking forward to reading the threads and cheering for everyone.

Aww okay! But that would be great if you could cheer us on! That would be awesome! There will be a chat thread where we can talk and keep each other motivated!! :D


message 72: by Mehsi (new)

Mehsi Well I will cheer then, at the times I am awake. :) Oh good to hear there will be a chat thread, I was already wondering about how it will go on that day.


message 73: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Yeah, I will be making it closer to the 7th so it doesn't get messy and not organized!


message 74: by Mehsi (new)

Mehsi Ok, will be checking it and bookmarking it when it gets made. :)

Yes, I think so. I have no idea when though! :D

And awesome! I will let you know!!


message 79: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments Yay!! Keep me posted. Lol it was fun chatting with everyone while we read!! ;)


message 80: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments It was very fun and very distracting at the same time! But I still loved every part of it! :D


message 81: by Trinity (new)

Trinity  (tsundokuproblem) I can't wait! :-)


message 82: by Angela (new)

Angela | 17461 comments I'm looking forward to the next one! I'm probably not doing the 24 hours though.


message 83: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Yeah, I didn't do 24 hours, I fell asleep for 3 hours and had to do some errands but I did most of it! :D


message 84: by Angela (new)

Angela | 17461 comments I only did a few hours. I'll try to do more the next time!


message 85: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Well whatever you can do is great!


message 86: by Becky (new)

Becky (booklovingcoffeeaddict) | 4889 comments I hope we pick a weekend where my kids are with their dad! LOL. Oh and a Friday to Saturday would be much better - give recoup time for those of us who have to go to work on Monday!


message 87: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Okay. Sounds awesome. Thanks for giving me ideas so I can see when the most people would be able to join! :D


message 88: by Trinity (new)

Trinity I would love to do this again! It wa sso fun chatting with everyone :)


message 89: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments If we start on Saturday I'll join, but I cannot if it's on Sunday. I have things to do on Monday.


message 90: by Trinity (new)

Trinity Yeah, Saturday's are the best for me :)


message 91: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Yeah, Saturdays work the best as well! I will make it on a Saturday.


message 92: by Trinity (new)

Trinity Yay!!


message 93: by Becky (new)

Becky (booklovingcoffeeaddict) | 4889 comments I'll drop in and say hi, but with having to work on Monday, I can't be up 24 hours right before that! It's such a fun thing to do tho!


message 94: by Angela (new)

Angela | 17461 comments Saturday's don't work well because of volunteering. Fridays are okay because I'm only gone for the morning.


message 95: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments Hmm.. okay. We will work something out.


message 96: by Becky (new)

Becky (booklovingcoffeeaddict) | 4889 comments We'll just have to keep moving them each time, so everyone gets a chance to participate. I'm really too old to do it anyway, lol - so don't worry about me! :-)


message 97: by Angela (new)

Angela | 17461 comments You're not old, Becky!

Angela | 17461 comments Jacquelyn wrote: "Hmm.. okay. We will work something out."

You can do it on Saturdays, I guess, because that works out for the majority. I'm busy pretty much every day so it's okay.


message 99: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new)

Trisha | 30284 comments Oh no! If you're too old than I'm probably too old Becky!!! Lol. Never too old. :D
Last time I just stayed up late but I still slept and got lots of reading in.... We can do it!
