I was so close to reaching my #FabulousFebruary #20in4 Readathon goal!
219/251 pages
Falling asleep during a readathon is my downfall too often.
But I loved this book and the motivation the readathon gave me to read a little more every day!
Thank you @Andrew65 !

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick @Susanita @Andrew65 Thanks, friends! I am feeling better now. I lucked out that it wasn't too bad, but it was a good excuse to stay home and read! 😁 9mo

This veered occasionally to soap opera “territory” but would always pull itself back. I liked the author‘s use of history, family research, and her imagination to craft an interesting and enjoyable story. This was a Seattle without Starbucks!

#FabulousFebruary … how did I do?

FINISH
Island of the Blue Dolphins✅
Now You See Them ✅
A Wild and Heavenly Place ✅
Emma (maybe?) 2 more chapters

START
The Last Widow✅

Well not my best readathon. Didn't quite hit ten hours but did finish one book. I do seem to be out of my slump though which is great. Hopefully better results next time. #FabulousFebruary #20in4 @Andrew65

While I only finished 2 of the 3 books I wanted to finish for this readathon, I still consider it a success because I finished the 34+ hours audiobook trudge through Dhalgren. Finishing that felt like winning a prize to me 🤣
Thanks for hosting @Andrew65. See you again for March's readathons. #20in4 #FabulousFebruary

This one has very mixed reviews but you know what? I really liked it. Starts as a slow burn that spends the first half setting up the three main characters‘ toxic friendship, and the second half is a murder mystery featuring all three plus some secondary characters from the first half. I had a lot of fun trying to figure it all out and I was wrong! The end completely surprised me. So, this is a pick from me!

I finished 6 books for this readathon. Total pages read is 2,337 and the total reading time is 60.75. I had no goals and this seems to work best for me.
