Nice! I have three books I am in the middle of that I want to finish up. But I was at five yesterday so I am making great progess.
That is awesome progress! Great job and good luck on those three remaining books! (:

Thanks, Mehsi!
I will probably go to the library on Saturday again (went to the other library today), there are some books that I have on-hold/reserved that are in.
Awesome! I have some waiting for me tonight and then I may go one more time this weekend!
Yep. So I got 6 books now from one library (the max for that one), and will see if I can find some more books in the other library (you got a max of 15 books you can borrow). :) Will be a nice pile of books to read for that week. Oh nice, well I hope you can bring home a lot of books!
Awesome! Hope you get some awesome books! And thanks! I hope so too! :D

With the new updated point system, I might rethink some of my books, but most of them I need for a challenge so I might have to stick with them. It's so fun no matter what! I am excited for the read-a-thon although Monday I work and then babysit and don't get home until around 10:00, Thursday I have a dental appointment after school, and Friday I have to chaperone the Sadie Hawkins Dance. Ugh...too many hours taken away. But I'll read what I can and have fun knowing that others are in cahoots with me! LOL
Wow! Seems you like you are busy but I know you will make the best of it! My mom just told me on Saturday we are going to a big soccer game with the family. So that is the only day I have anything. I have school that week of course but nothing the rest of the nights!
Kathryn wrote: "I'm hoping to finish/get through some series' this readathon! wooo!"Good luck!
I just finished one of my two current reads! Woop! Now I only have one I need to finish before the readathon begins!
Way to go, J! You can definitely do it.I have made progress on all of my books but haven't finished anymore.
Thanks, Mandiann! Any progress is good progress! GL!
I might withdraw from the readathon. I have major issues with yearbook and only have till March 30 to finish all pages. Our spring sports are JUST beginning!!! Not sure with such an early deadline how we're going to make it work.Plus a LOT on my plate this week. If I don't get anything read I'll be embarrassed. Lol
What do you think Jacque?
I think that even though you are busy you should still stay in! (: No matter how little you read, we will be proud of you! It's up to you but I would say stay in!
So I dropped
It started out amazing but just kept going down and down.. I am going to the library tomorrow so I will start one of the books I get tomorrow and hopefully finish Sunday!
I haven't been reading too much recently :/ I'm not sure why. I'm reading Amy and Roger's Epic Detourit's good, but i always prefer reading fantasy :P

Yes, the first half was nice.
Yeah. I was just too bored. Felt like I was wasting my time.
I rated it 3 stars. It did get a little better near the end.
Eh. I don't think I can wait until the end. lol. glad you liked it at least!
Thanks, Jacquelyn. I'll hang in there then. :)
I am ready for readathon! :) I will try to finish today
and maybe start reading one new book and try to finish it till Sunday (midnight). This week I almost read 1 book everyday, I am free this week and next. Free time, just for books! :D (...and I have read 20 books of my goal 30, for challenge, we will see, but I think that I'm gonna change it to 50 books [I never though that I will read almost 30 books for 3 month 0_0) :P
This is different then many of the other read a thons in my other groups I'm pretty excited
Almost time for the read-a-thon. *is very excited*

Me too, guys! :)
Kathryn wrote: "I'm trying to finish everything that i'm currently reading, as to get ready! eep!"Awesome! Good luck. I am going to two libraries today (in a little over an hour) and I want to get some books for the readathon but also a book that I can read today and finish tomorrow. Right now, I am not currently reading anything and that makes me sad. :( LOL
I hope to get 2 books done by Sunday so I can start refresh for the read-a-thon.
Gisbelle wrote: "I hope to get 2 books done by Sunday so I can start refresh for the read-a-thon."Good luck! What books?
Faking Normal and another one is an adult book.
Kathryn wrote: "I know the feeling, Jacque! I'm reading some short-ish ebooks for today and tomorrow, so I can start anew on Monday!"That is what I hope to do: pick up a few short books. I have
waiting for me at the library. I want to read it for the readathon since it is a sequel but I read her books really fast and I have been dying to read this book since it came out so I think I will read that. I am not sure though.
Gisbelle wrote: "Faking Normal and another one is an adult book."Cool! Once you get a little bit in on Faking Normal, it is hard to stop!
I am glad you like it so far.
Vicki wrote: "Awesome Mio!! Happy reading!"Thank you, Vicki. It seems, no new book after The Edge of Never (which I like it, so far), I was out almost whole day (rollers and my friend)... will just try to finish this one ;) *excited for Monday* ^_^
@Jacquelyn - aw Thank you! :D *so excited* Monday come on, hurry! (less than 2 days to go! *WOOHOO*) XD
Well I went to the library and got some new books. Will be keeping them unread until the new week (which will be difficult to do, because I really want to read them). :)
I am really excited for the readathon! I have it during Spring break so I really hope to get a lot of reading done. I have to go to my moms job on Monday but then I have the rest of the week free! I really hope to finish the Morganville Vampires series through the readathon (I am currently on book 5) So excited!
So happy to hear you are all excited! (: I also got some books from the library and the store recently and I am trying my hardest to not start them. LOL
LOL just two more days, Jacquelyn! You can do it!!
