The Graveyard Book | Neil Gaiman

I just finished doing the #readingsprint hosted by @PuddleJumper. I sprinted from 3:03 AM - 6:08 AM CST which is my time zone. I‘m a night owl. I‘m up all night anyway so I figured that I might as well participate in this sprint and I‘ll also get points. I made a lot of progress in this book. Now, I‘m tired so I‘m going to bed.

Here‘s my review for a book I DNF‘d this afternoon. I read this book for #scarathlon. I‘m counting this book towards the #readingsprint I participated in today and I‘m giving myself points for participating in that but I‘m not doing the word search on this book or counting it as being read because I didn‘t finish it.

Today, I‘m sharing a coloring page I‘ve started this month that is a work in progress. I‘m going to count it as a #spookycraft for #scarathlon. I worked on it during a #readingsprint this afternoon from 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm so I read for 2 hours and I‘ve decided that I‘m going to DNF this book. This book isn‘t for me. I‘m not enjoying it. I‘m disappointed about this book but I like how my coloring page looks so far.

Sprint: How to Solve Big Problems and Test New Ideas in Just Five Days | Jake Knapp, John Zeratsky, Braden Kowitz

Hey guys! I thought it would be a great time to test run our first #scarathlon #readingsprint on Listy. 🖤This event will start in 15 minutes and run for 2 hours.

No major rules, just post your final reading time at the end of the sprint, and tag the host using #scarathlonsprint. You do not have to finish the book to qualify for the 2x pts, but if you made progress during a sprint, your Halloween read will go from 25pts to 50pts etc.

Clwojick Please let me know if you have any questions! I‘ve been brainstorming a way to bring reading sprints to Litsy, and this is what I‘ve worked out so far, but we may need to iron some things out! 14mo

PuddleJumper I'm in! Need a kick to read this book, I'm so excited by it that I don't want to read it in case it sucks 😂 Start 11pg Nine Eyes of Lucien 14mo

Clwojick @PuddleJumper I FEEL THAT! I hate the nervous jitters of starting a 5 star prediction lol! It makes it so easy to push it aside for a different book I care less about 😜 Why do our brains work like that?! Hahahah 14mo

PuddleJumper @Clwojick I've read so many mediocre books instead 😂 I'm not disappointed if they are bad 14mo

LiseWorks Interesting time slot you guys chose,lol it's supper time at my house. 14mo

Clwojick @LiseWorks I would‘ve done later, if I didn‘t have to nap before my midnight shift. 😜 14mo

LiseWorks I like this idea though. We should try different time slots during the month. I love to read in the morning between 530 am and 7 am or 3 to 430 in the afternoon I know I'm weird 🙃 14mo

Clwojick @LiseWorks I shared a blank poster in our team captain chat! All captains can host as many as they want, so between the lot of us we should have a good mix match of times to work for all time zones! 🧡 14mo

LiseWorks Ok I'll look for it 14mo

Larkken Ooo! Just saw this. I'm in for the last hr 🥰 14mo

aperfectmjk And I slept right through this. Went to the doctor today, got a bad sinus infection. Finally got some decent meds. I guess I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for the next one. 14mo

Clwojick @aperfectmjk there‘s definitely more to come! 14mo

julieclair I missed this one, but I love this idea! Keep ‘em coming, please! 😀 14mo

Andrew65 @Clwojick It‘s a difficult balance as much later would make it impossible for us in the U.K. to join in. 14mo

Clwojick @Andrew65 we‘ve got some early morning readers, and our UK girlie @Emilymdxn so hopefully some of the sprints will work better for you! 🖤 14mo

TheAromaofBooks I missed this one, but will definitely be on the lookout for them!! I love this idea!! 14mo

Lin3han I missed this one but I can‘t wait to join next time!! 14mo

DebinHawaii Bummer I was in meetings all day in Hilo @ missed this one. 🥲 Can we do them by time zone ever? 14mo

Charityann Oh wow, totally missed this one, but would love to do the next one. 14mo

gossamerchild Aww, I'm bummed I missed this! Sounds fun. 14mo

Lizpixie Totally missed this! I‘ll need more warning before the next one so I can arrange to be awake.😴 14mo

Clwojick @DebinHawaii the idea is to do the reading sprint together, but since we know that different times will work for different people, we have more coming soon at various times of the day! 🧡 14mo

DebinHawaii @Clwojick @Clwojick I get it. Thanks. Different days & times would be helpful as would some weekend times as it‘s tough for me with work hours mid-week. Also & I probably missed this somewhere but we can do other teams sprints or just the ones for ours? And how do we find out about them? 14mo

Clwojick @DebinHawaii any sprint hosted by any of the hosts count for the same points! You can check the hashtag #scarathlonsprints but also the team leads will try to tag their team in the post whenever anyone is hosting one. 14mo

Did a power sprint of reading to finish this gem last night. I really loved the whole book, but it definitely felt “unfinished”. This could be a personal problem because I almost never read series, so maybe that writing style just doesn‘t appeal to me? The whole premise of this book and the story telling are so original it‘s completely worth the read. I will be patiently awaiting the next book. #DreadNation #JustinaIreland #RiseUp #ReadingSprint

📖Steamy! What a way to start a reading day lol! That‘s all I‘ve got lol! Steamy 🤯. Didn‘t read as much as I wanted to during my first #readingsprint but got more ☕️ & stuff done, so it all balances out in the end.
