Dewey Readathon Signup

Guess what?! It is almost time for the Dewey Spring Readathon!! I almost missed it too, but I happened to catch a post about it.  So the readathon is scheduled for next Saturday, the 26th.  You can find out more on Dewey's Page.
 


I am definitely going to try to participate again this time, the last readathon was cut short for me because both Hubby & Munchkin couldn't understand the importance of reading for 24 hours! HAHAHA!  I am hoping to get Hubby to take the little man on an adventure outside of the house so I can get some peace and quiet.  I am also going to adjust my reading a little to include books I can share with Munchkin.
 
 
So what books to I plan to read you may ask.  Well I plan on reading some of the books I have in progress and finish them. In addition I plan to put the following books in my Dewey pile:
 
  
  
  
 
 
Books to read with Munchkin
  
                                   Milo Armadillo
 
 
 
I know that looks like a mountain of books but most of them aren't too long. If I can just get a little peace and quiet here and there I should be able to get through most of them. The total page count for all those books (not including the ones already in progress) is 2,205.  I think that is doable, I generally read 60-75 pages an hour (obviously depending on the type of book) so based on that I should be able to read them all in 29-36 hours (but obviously children's books and graphic novels read much quicker).
 
 
So are you going to be joining the readathon? What books do you plan to read?

    1. That stinks, maybe just try to squeeze in some reading on break or when you get home, or post pone your own readathon until sunday. I have done that before.

    1. Thank you for hosting the readathon! It gives me a reason to kick the hubby and munchkin out of the house so I can just read all day ;)
