Read-A-Thon Update #5

I ended up taking a longer break than I originally planned. I started reading again at 10pm. I finished The New Girl and returned to reading Testimony.
This will probably be my last update for the night. I want to read a few more pages before going to bed. I'll write my wrap-up post tomorrow.

I do want to say I had a blast reading today. The Read-A-Thon came at a perfect time for me. It allowed me to push through my reading slump (one that I've been in for awhile) and I'm very pleased with all that I accomplished during the time I spent reading today.

Here's where I stand:

Hours: 8pm-11pm
Time spent reading: 56 minutes
Pages read: 70
Books completed: 1 (The New Girl by Meg Cabot)
Time spent blogging: 15 minutes
Mini-Challenges completed: 0
Currently reading: Testimony by Anita Shreve

    Breaks are welcome! I had a four-hour nap (how dare I call it a nap) and woke up refreshed!

    Hope you're having a blast reading. Enjoy the rest of the Read-a-Thon!

    It's really getting into the beginning of tiredness but keep going, you're doing great!

    You are really doing great! Isn't the time flying by? I am starting to feel exhaustion setting in, but blog-hopping is helping. Keep up the good work.
