Spring Readathon 2012 :: Hours 5-12

 
Update from Readathon Hours 5–12… now at the Mid-point!
Not so much reading since the morning, I’m afraid. My body finally gave in from being awake all night and I had to nap. Still, I did get further along in The Art of Fielding, and though I’ve reached the post-crisis lull at the beginning of the story, I’m still engaged enough to continue. It’s not necessarily a mesmerizing book, but it’s a pretty quick and easy read so I’m inclined to continue. I opted against heading to the library earlier, so I won’t be getting around to The Looking Glass Wars today, but it will be a nice reward to look forward to for the post-readathon days. For now, I’m all in for the long haul through the remainder of today and all through the night.

There was far too much blog-hopping and Twitter-checking during the first hours of the readathon, so I’m ready now to buckle down and commit. I’ll likely check in with page counts on Twitter as I shift reading spots and stop for momentary stretches, but this blog may be silent until a late night update. Drop me a note if you’re still hanging in.
