Absolutely! Is it sad that the healthy snack one is going to be the hardest one to get? It's the only one that I wasn't planning to do already...

I'm finishing with all of them EXCEPT the "read 500 pages" box - I have another 20 minutes to go but there is no way I can read 70 pages in that time. :D
(I knew this would be the biggest challenge of all - my attention span is terrible, I'm not a very fast reader and I don't like going out of my way to find "easy" reads just for the page count even if I have no real interest in reading them.)

Yep I did! I have a pretty high reading time counter thanks to the audiobook (15 hours, somehow?), but some of the books I picked were pretty slow going... which I kinda knew beforehand. I did make it to 445 pages, so I'll probably hit the 500 next readathon. :D
