Dewey's Readathon is finally here! As I mentioned in my prepping post, I've got some time dedicated to my library book sale this afternoon. But other than that, it's a day of reading!
Opening Survey
1) What fine part of the world are you reading from today?
Michigan, where the leaves are colorful and gorgeous, and it's supposed to be 75 and sunny today. At least the crazy Michigan weather is working in my favor this time.
2) Which book in your stack are you most looking forward to?
Code Name Flood by Laura Martin. I LOVED the first book in the series, and I can't wait to read the sequel.
3) Which snack are you most looking forward to?
I don't have tons of snacks planned, but I am going out to lunch and planning to get a bacon cheeseburger with a fried egg on top. So good!
4) Tell us a little something about yourself!
I'm a stay-at-home mom with my son who is a year and a half. My favorite day of the week is Wednesday when we volunteer at our school library.
5) If you participated in the last read-a-thon, what’s one thing you’ll do different today?
I try to keep this day as unscheduled as possible, but this year, it coincided with my library book sale. I just couldn't pass that up!
