"She has spent most of the day reading and is feeling rather out of touch with reality, as if her own life has become insubstantial in the face of the fiction she's been absorbed in."

Read-a-thon Hour 9 Update
Reading Now: Sparrow Road by Sheila O'Connor
It's been __70__ pages and __78__ reading minutes since my last update.
Total Time Spent Reading: 4 hours 38 minutes
Cumulative Pages Read: 244
Books Completed: 1 - Blind Faith by Ellen Wittlinger
Eating?: String cheese and a glass of water
Still enjoying Sparrow Road, but it's time for my Readathon intermission. I paid for the Party Hearty Zumbathon weeks ago, and now must go and Zumba for a few hours. I guess it's a good thing that even though I'm not really reading for charity today, I'll at least be Zumba-ing for it! Here's hoping all the physical activities invigorate me, and I don't come home all broken down and feeble. I'd love to be able to fit a few more hours in tonight, though the full 24 probably won't happen.
It's been a little less easy to make the most of my reading time with other people in the house and having to get myself into gear for Zumba, but it's still way more reading and blog fun than I would normally have on a Saturday, for sure!
Happy reading all, and hopefully I'll see you later for more quality reading time!
Just keep reading, just keep reading..... =D

ReplyDeleteHubby's family is in town so I fear that this evening will be tough. But glad you're making the most of the distractions!!
ReplyDeleteString cheese? You put my ice cream to shame. ;)

ReplyDeleteMegan, you seem to be doing well! I had too much going on this w/end to participate.
ReplyDeleteOh my, what better way to perk up for the second half of the readathon than some zumba?? Have fun!
