so-soI liked it, but didn't love it. For me the middle dragged a bit and I wasn't in a hurry to finish. There wasn't really that sense of 'I need to know what happens next'. What was done really well however, was creating a scenario that made me uncomfortable. There are many variations of this situation that could realistically occur. Overall a 3 star read for me.

I don't really have a #cozy reading spot. This would be my ideal though.

#24b4monday Total time: 26 hrs 14 min. It is so much easier to reach a goal when work isn't getting in the way. And I've broken my reading slump! All 5 books pictured were read. All will help in at least 1 challenge I'm working on, but I'll figure that out tomorrow.
@TheReadingMermaid @Andrew65 @jb72
The #24b4monday readathon is starting soon! This is a tentative TBR. I'm going for the cozies this weekend. Even better, I've taken the weekend off, so the 24 hour goal is actually doable for me this time.

I'm blown away by this wonderful box of #cozyswap goodies! Thank you soooooo much @Avanders ! The books are perfect, the tazo zen is one of my favorite green teas, the blanket is the perfect thickness for fall days, and even though its 85 degrees, I'm trying the oreo hot chocolate tonight. Thank you again for the gift and for hosting. You're amazing!!

Thank you soooooo much Rachel! I love everything. My favorite is the tote. The jelly slugs were delicious, however the first 2 every flavor beans were pepper and vomit. Now I'm extra wary of them. Thank you @Endowarrior21 for hosting!

So I accidentally reset my timer so no pic. Very little reading today. Work just gets in the way and tires me out. I'm at about the 10 hour mark which I'm happy with, but I haven't finished a book yet. It will be done this week though.
#24b4monday #SummersEndReadathon
@TheReadingMermaid @Andrew65 @jb72 @Clwojick
Didn't do a lot of reading yesterday, the focus just wasn't there. I did start the tagged book on audio during my commute though, and listened to some more this morning. I'm also hoping to finish The Firebird tonight as well.
#24b4monday #SummersEndReadathon
@TheReadingMermaid @Andrew65 @jb72 @Clwojick
It's the end of day 1 and I'm happy with this total. I'm finding my focus is coming back. I'll see how much I can squeeze in around work tomorrow.

A little reading in the car before clocking into work.
#24b4monday #SummersEndReadathon
@TheReadingMermaid @Andrew65 @jb72 @Clwojick
A couple of readathon start tomorrow! I'm very slowly starting to read again, coming off of a slump of ~4 months, so my goal is to just read, hopefully finishing at least 1 book. See the corresponding profiles if you want more info!
