I'm 50 pages in and it's a little slow, I hope the action picks up soon, I need it! I hope you're liking Catching Fire. I loved it, and it's a perfect read to wake you up!!
Mod
Jamie-Are you going to read mockingjay next?Richard- Good picks! I want to read Lighting Thief some day haha
I've got 100 pages left of Girl, Stolen. Must finish!!
Good luck to everyone participating! I hope you all have a wonderful time and get lots of reading done. I was going to participate, but I'm visiting family and friends today, and I didn't want to ignore them on my first day of visiting. Maybe next time!

Kelly--After CF I'm going to switch gears and read Never Let Me Go..just to get a break and then I'll do Mockingjay!
Emily--thanks!
Guys..I'm seriously thinking about doing our OWN readathon just for this group but we can pick what hours we want to do (people can do as many as they want) and we could read for charity or something! Anybody down for this?
Wheee, this is fun!I LOVE the idea of doing our own readathon!
So far I've gotten through The Phantom Tollbooth and have started Something Missing and The Reader.
Our own readathon would be awesome. I'd love to do more of these. It's a good excuse to sit down and read, Plus I'm loving all the support from everyone! Great way to meet new people.
How often are readathons? (forgive me if this is a dumb question haha)
Dewey's Readathon is every April and October. Definitely not a dumb question. As of two weeks ago I didn't know either.
Okay. I was just thinking it to be an annual thing, that's why I figured it was a dumb question. But it's awesome to know it happens every 6 months! Is it a particular day or is it the whole month?
it's a certain day, Like today for instance!you can find more information here. http://24hourreadathon.com/
Ohhh. I might have to do one of those on my blog :D. It'd be fun to have a monthly read-a-thon. Then again I like having special events such as this as often as possible.

Watch this if you need a break from reading and..for real..just get up and dance! I did! I pretended I was hood and I could do the Snuggie :)

Jamie -- love the video!! I'm starting to lose steam. My butt is doing fine, but the rest of me is sleeeeepy...
Mod
It's got to be all that reading! I'm feeling it too, but I had a nice break where I got out and drove a bit, and it really helped! Or it could be time to get a power drink lol.
Mod
haha completely understand! There are some crazy people out there. ugh six in a half more hours sooooo close
I finished The Lightning Thief. I read soooo much xD. It always feels weird when you read the last chunk of book in one fell swoop (read over 100 pages of it in one sitting). Oh well, now I really have to pee.P.S. IT WAS FRICKING AMAZING!!!!!
Richard -- I loved that whole series! I hope you have the next ones lined up ready to go!
Mod
So how did the readathon go for everyone?I was going to try to unofficially participate before work yesterday but I woke up too late.
Mod
I agree with Jamie. It went well but I do wish I had read a little more. It's tricky not to get all caught up with what's happening online, so you really have to force yourself away from your computer at times!

Guys..I'm seriously thin..."
I would be interested in it, if the group hosted one. I had a friend in from out of town totally last minute and wasn't able to participate yest :(
Erin - Yeahhh. I ordered the whole series from barnes and noble with a gift card. It ended up costing around $28. I'm sooo excited to get them in the mail :D.It'd be awesome if the group hosted one :D. I was with my family most of yesterday, but I read a lot last night. It'd definitely be awesome if we did!
We should definitely have our own read-a-thon!! That would be fun!
Hellllzzzz yeah! Maybe have one the first of every month? Would that be good? I'd personally love that! Great way to start off the month :D.
hello everyone i want to read sociology and psychology book related to medical can you tell me how i can find it please because i just join
