This morning and every morning, my choice of drink of cranberry juice. This is my side table with my e reader and juice ready to go. #EasterOMC @Clwojick @LadyKatrina #3Whatsmypoison.

Clwojick Mmmmmm I love cranberry juice, but sometimes I forget about it. I‘m adding it to the grocery list! ❤️ 12mo
LiseWorks @Clwojick I drink it every day because it is supposed to help people who are prone to kidney stones. But only the pure one not the one with added sugars. So I dilute the good one with water and it's really good. 12mo
Clwojick @LiseWorks yes! Nice and bitter, but I love it! 12mo

#20in4Readathon

My goals:

Read my #bookspin and #doublebookspin (A Quiet Life and The Love of my Life)

Read Olga Dies Dreaming (my last #tob23 book)

Whatever is next in my library stack, but we have a lot going on this weekend so I doubt I will get this far. 😫

Andrew65 Best of luck, great to have you with us. 😁 13mo

Repost for @Andrew65 This weekend sees the second monthly #20in4 Readathon (the replacement for the #24B4Monday Readathon). The aim is to try to read for 20 hours over the 4 days, or you can set your own time target, or even set a different goal for yourself over the four days. Be great to have you joining us even if it‘s your first ever Readathon. It‘s very informal just come and join us and have fun reading & sharing your progress. Please share!

Woohooo! I‘ve hit the 60hr mark with just over 3hrs till it hits midnight Thursday/Friday in Sydney. It is over then right, not 11.59pm Friday? Or have I got it wrong again🤦🏻‍♀️Still, 60hrs & 7.5 books is pretty good in a week. And I started late too, didn‘t start reading till 7pm Friday night. How‘s everyone else doing? #SummersEndReadathon #HSreadathon

National D.E.A.R. Day is celebrated every year on April 12th. That's the birthday of beloved author Beverly Cleary, whose characters Ramona and older sister Beezus are now favorites of a new generation of readers. On this day, families are encouraged to take at least 30 minutes to put aside all distractions and enjoy books together. What will you be reading?

Bookzombie I‘m not an educator or a teacher but I recommend this one. 5y
IamIamIam @Bookzombie Thank you!!! I only threw that in there because people with classroom libraries are excellent sources for recommendations. 😁 All opinions and suggestions are equally valued and appreciated! 💓 5y

Anything Jason Reynolds but his Ghost series for sure. Anything DJ MacHale, Shannon Hale, Cornelia Funke. Phoebe and her Unicorn. Dam keeper. Amulet. narwhal and Jelly. Dog man. Zita the space girl.
