I've finished two books so far, one I had actually started before the event: Theo of Golden (Love it!) and a children's book: God's Great Idea (Love it, too) Now I turn my attention to two more books I've already started and hope to finish within the hour. Off to continue reading.
I finished 
The Widow's Husband's Secret LieA novella. PERFECT for a read a thon.
It is by Freida McFadden who has been very popular the last few years.
This was the funniest book ever. She wrote a mystery poking fun at people like her who write over the top books with a twist.
I loved it!
I finished
AmityI was already a good amount through it. Now I'm going to move on to another book I'm partway through.
I finished Coming Home to Mahone Bay (Harborlights Seasons Book One): A Sweet, Small-Town Romance
It’s the first in a series. I didn’t think it was as good as the series prequel. I also finished The Love We Find: (Lighthouse Landing - Book 3) Women's Fiction Beach Romance
and I liked it. It’s book 3 in a series and I like the series so far.
I finished 📖 Frank Herbert's Dune: The Graphic Novel, Book 3: The Prophet by Brian Herbert (started before the readathon). Very close adaptation to the novel.
Finished Cold Storage and read The Big Purple Book of Beginner Books by Dr. Seuss/P. D. Eastman to my son at bedtime. Counting it because we read the whole thing! 🤣

Horton Hears a Who!
On Beyond Zebra!
The Trumpet of the Swan by E.B. White
MirrorMask by Neil Gaiman
Rental Person Who Does Nothing by Shoji Morimoto
I finished Python’s Kiss by Louise Erdrich. It was a creative and powerful book of short stories that feature children or animals in every story. I highly recommend this book.
Finished this evening, a few hours after the official end of the readathon: Of Wars, and Memories, and Starlight by Aliette de Bodard.
