Speed doesn't matter! As long as you are reading the numbers don't matter!

Aw! I won't be starting at midnight. I will probably read a little more before school tomorrow and then my real reading will start once I finish homework! (:


message 61: by Angela (new)

Angela | 17461 comments LOL how do you have time in the morning? I don't think I ever did then...


message 62: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments LOL! I don't have much time but if I don't fool around and I get everything done quickly I could have about 25 minutes.


message 63: by Angela (new)

Angela | 17461 comments That's a lot. :o I barely have time to blow dry my hair every morning LOL.


message 64: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments LOL! It depends though. Sometimes I am running until the time I have to walk out the door!

I wanted to finish the books I had already started but realized with the Golden Globes I was not going to get much reading done. So I'm starting with the 2 books I'm currently reading.

message 74: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments Wouldn't it be fun if we stay up all night for 7 days straight? lol


message 75: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Gis, I dare you! Lol It would be fun to try, but I'd never be able to teach at school. Lol


message 76: by Gisbelle (new)

Gisbelle | 25787 comments lol


message 77: by [deleted user] (new)

Staying up all night for 7 days straight would be interesting. I could just imagine all of us by day 5. Walking around tired but still reading.


message 78: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Imagine trying to remember anything we read! Lol


message 79: by Gisbelle (new)

message 86: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments I like it, and I'm half done.

message 90: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Yeah, too many good books to waste time on one you don't like!


message 91: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Is anyone at least in the PST zone up? I'm here! :)


message 92: by Vicki (last edited Jan 12, 2014 11:58PM) (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments Okay, well, I've managed to read 50% of Fallen Too Far (Too Far, #1; Rosemary Beach, #1) by Abbi Glines I can't say how many pages because my NOOK says it's 698 pages long and it skips some pages; however, based on the 300 pages it says it is on GR, I assumed I've read about 150 pages. I already had 28% read prior to the read-a-thon starting, so I have it 78% read and now I have to go to bed and get up and go to (ugh) WORK. :o)


message 93: by Kathy (new)

Kathy | 7669 comments I too have to go to bed!

I have about 70 pages of 304 done on Three Broken Promises

I had about 20 or so done before we started! I'll finish tomorrow!

Good night all! :D


message 94: by [deleted user] (new)

The wind has picked up where I live and it's been so hard to get on here. So I don't know if I will get sleep with all this wind.

So I started on page 100 in Sherlock A Study in Scarlet (Sherlock Holmes, #1) by Arthur Conan Doyle and 59 in This Is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith I have a feeling I will be finishing both of these or one of them tonight.


message 95: by Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd (new)

Jacquelyn (jacquelynreads) | 18790 comments You guys are doing great! (:

I have no pages so far because I was asleep. I will read a bunch after school! :D


message 96: by Kathy (new)

Kathy | 7669 comments Good morning everyone!

How is everybody doing? I just woke up so I'm going to start my book again while I eat breakfast! :D


message 97: by Vicki (new)

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments I think I'll go by my NOOK pages and say that I read 502 pages. LOL BUT according to GR Fallen Too Far (Too Far, #1; Rosemary Beach, #1) by Abbi Glines is more like 300 pages, so I read 72% of the book last night (had already read 28%%) so I am calling it 216 pages if my calculations are correct.

I'm just glad to say that I finished one book. :o)


message 98: by [deleted user] (new)

I was able to finish Sherlock A Study in Scarlet (Sherlock Holmes, #1) by Arthur Conan Doyle start on page 100 and read 112 pages during this.
