Leprechaun Event RaT: Reading Sprint Relay (Sun Mar 20th)
Enjoy your break Bobbi, great job!! :D
Ready for my hour! Starting on page 21 of Hounded, here we go!
Karen, I'll probably keep you company. Since Ink and Bone has a dark enough cover, all I have left for the LRPG is the exciting book. For that I'm starting
which I've heard lots of good things about.
And yep, definitely down for that 4:30 to 5 spot.

Such a good book!! :-D Love Oberon!

I am crocheting arm warmers for my daughter right now as well as a baby blanket for my new nephew/niece soon to be born :D
Adding you in now, Rylie.Morning Karen! Nice to have you here!
I listened to 10% of my book. So far it's starting off as good as the last one ended. YAY! Need to charge it (my Fire). Gonna get caught up on Coin Tracking and Puzzle answers and all that jazz.
Have 5 hours open at 7pm UTC (3pm EST). Let me know if you want any! Maybe someone new will come along and play with us today. :)
Made it to page 90! Definitely enjoying Oberon also :) good luck to everyone else on their sprints!
Well done Karen! :DHave fun Rylie! :D
Teresa, you're up in a half hour!
Lunch time here. Going from cinnamon rolls to chicken ceasar salad. I know, I know, I said we don't do healthy and with all the dressing, cheese and croutons I put on mine, it's not very healthy at all. :D
What's everyone else doing today, when you aren't sprinting of course?
I'm here, ready to start!After my reading, I am going for a walk with the family :)
Enjoy your book Teresa, then your walk too!Delitealex is up in an hour, then we got no one. I can plan to take the hour after Delitealex (unless someone wants it). If anyone wants any of those hours, let me know, or I'll plan to take us the 5 hour stretch. :)
I can do 7 to 8 too unless someone else wants it
Delitealex wrote: "I can do 7 to 8 too unless someone else wants it"No one's claimed it, so have at it! :) I'll take the hour after that if no one comes around.
These last 5 hours, I probably won't be able to help much. :( D&D will, I'm sure take most of the time.I'll still check in from time to time and see how everyone's doing ( I can multi-task,) I just can't focus on reading.
I'm about 80 pages in to Angelfall, and I'm really enjoying it. I sort of just wanna keep reading. :D

Karsyn....I can take 4 to 5 or 5 to 6 EST.
I put you at 5 EST Angie. That work for you?Now we just need 6 EST & 7 EST. Almost there!
I'm here for my time. I'll take this hour, Angie has the next hour. If I don't hear from anyone else by the time she's done I'll just take the final two hours.Y'all have been so great! Thanks for sprinting with me these two days! I hope you were able to get some good reading done!!
Back to
starting at 10%.
Read 44-70% will definitely finish today so I can start
for a challenge
I can read if you still need someone
I'm reading along with you Karsyn, but I need to go to bed by 10 so i can't take any of the remaining relay legs.
No worried Emily, glad to have you reading along with me now. We'd love to have you, Amy. Want to take either a half hour, or hour at 10p UTC (6p EST)?
Thoughty I was going to be able to do more before this, but unfortunately not. However, I am free the rest of the night. If no one else is interested, I can take all the remaining time slots! Or if anyone wants to share, I'm up for that too ☺

I snail paced my way to page 238 in the meantime though. Started at 92 this morning when I got up so I'm very pleased with the progress! :-)
Yay Sarah. You made it just in time. Would you like the last hour? 11-12 UTC (7-8p EST)? You can finish us off!!
Finished my hour and listened to another 20% finishing at 30%. How symmetrical! If Sarah takes the last hour, we are all full up!! Angie should be starting now (you around Angie?) then Amy and then hopefully Sarah?!
I was reading but forgot to check in! :) Going to finish Showdown.
Great Angie, knew you'd be around. :)Wonderful Sarah! I've added you to the last spot for the last hour!
All done...Chapters 42 to 52...completes the book!
Starting my hour... hope to get a few chapters done :-)
Congrats on the completion Angie!! Enjoy your book Amy!
I'm ready to start in a couple minutes! A little bit over halfway through Die Trying, the second Jack Reacher novel. I'll see you all in a hour!
I managed about 45 pages during my hour... not too bad with a few distractions in the house
Sorry I didn't see you off Sarah, we were having dinner. I hope you enjoy your book!Great job Amy, glad you got some time in, despite the distractions!!
And I'm done! Read for an extra 5 minutes to finish the chapter. Went from 61% to 70%.This was fun! I would definitely join in on another relay if I'm available.
Congratulations everyone :)
Woohoo! Thanks Sarah.And with that, we have read for 24 HOURS straight!!
Great job y'all!! Thanks so much for playing along. There were 12 of us that relayed along for the past 24 hours, and a bunch of us read along with each other during their sprint. Well done you all!!
As a bonus, each of the 11 of you will receive 10 Leprechaun Coins for joining in!! Thanks again for so much fun ladies, and I hope you were able to get through chunks of your book!!

That was seriously a lot of fun! I loved reading at specific times and also reading along while others were sprinting. It was truly a social experience, which we don't get a whole lot while reading (it's much more of an individual thing.) I think things like this should happen more, the sprints, at least. :)
this was fun. I'm glad I was able to find a time where I could join in
This was a lot of fun! I would definitely join in again!(Thanks for the coins!)
This was great! Thank you so much for organizing and keeping track. Like others have said, it's wonderful to be able to share the reading experience with others
