Have joined this #20in4 #readathon yesterday - but found no time to post before.
My goal are not 20 hours, as always.
As usual, I just intend to make as much time for reading in those four days. My goal is to surpass 6 hours, that's the mark I reached in the last #20in4 during work...
So far, everything looks good! 😎

@Andrew65

Yuki_Onna ... Additional info:
On Monday a nation-wide major strike of public service personnel is scheduled to take place which is going to bring all public transport to a standstill; so the best choice for Monday is spending the time reading on the couch anyway.
AND I'm on leave from work atm, so everything looks very promising for getting a lot of reading done...😊

Andrew65 Best of luck 😁 2y

Have joined #MarvellousMarch #Readathon hosted by wonderful @Andrew65

My low-key goals - as always: To read as much as possible in those 9 days; to have fun reading and finishing at least one current read if possible... ☘️
#March #Spring #readinginspring

The #20in4 #readathon of the last weekend of #February did go quite well for my standards @ 6 hours+ of reading during those four days. Me likes! 😊

Trashcanman Keep breathing 2y
Andrew65 That‘s excellent with the #20in4. Good luck with #MarvellousMarch. 😍 2y

March was a very good reading month! I completed 34 books (ok, Rip van Winkle at 20 pages isn‘t really a book but still), had one DNF; 7208 pages 😲 is a record for me. 23 for #MGMarch, 15 GN/comics collections.

For the year I‘m at 94/18978. I‘m...quite happy with that and fully expect not to maintain the momentum.

15 books in total is a bit less than expected for a long, 31 day, month. However I read in The Times yesterday that we read faster on devices than we do with real books. I‘ve made a conscious effort this month to read more physical books, so may be that‘s why....

Definitely gone with the ‘classics‘ for my favourites this month....

Kaila-ann I loved The Outsiders and am curious as to why reading on a device is faster 🤔. I‘ll have to ask google later 😉. 6y
squirrelbrain @Kaila-ann - the article said ‘When we‘re reading a book, our eyes move in an E-shape - left to right and line by line. We read screens in an F-shape. We read the first few lines carefully, then skim the rest along the left-hand margin. This suggests that our attention is much less focused when we‘re reading screens‘ Apparently, with a screen, there is always the possibility that we could be reading something more interesting...! 6y
Kaila-ann That‘s fascinating. I wonder if there is a correlation between that and the massive amounts of information our brains are forced to process anytime there is a screen in front of our eyes. Definitely an interesting topic. Thanks for sharing 😊. 6y
StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego Great reading! 📖💖 6y

Had a few 3⭐️⭐️⭐️ at the beginning of the month and struggled to get going, but did better than I thought in the end!

I‘ve read a total of 19 books on #litsyatoz, on both author and title.

I‘ve also read a total of 13/25 for the #litsyreadingchallenge and 18/40 for #popsugar.

Oh, @Simona . I am absolutely in LOVE with these beautiful, handmade bookmarks. You truly outdid yourself and I'm so touched. Everything about this gift is so thoughtful - the postcards and magnet from Slovenia, the bookish pin and your wonderful handicrafts. Thank you so very much! ❤️❤️❤️ These beauties will hold a very special place in my bookmark box. 😍 #MadMarch

LeahBergen @Simona I was so worried for you that this one wouldn't show up after all your work! What book did you use to make the kimonos? I've been reading them and trying to figure it out ... 😄 8y
Simona Well, looks like that book-exchange can be very stressful for all involved parties 😅 Book is one of my favorites (I still have my copy) 8y
LeahBergen @Simona I haven't read that one yet! I've looked at it enough that the print on the bookmarks somehow looked familiar to me, though. I have The Name of the Rose on my TBR shelf. 8y
Simona I love The Name of the Rose❣️ It's so perfect crafted and so incredible layered story! 8y
Simona I don't know if you saw this ... but Eco is bookish badass https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jQYnz7Oqr20 8y
LeahBergen @Simona I did see that! Isn't it amazing? Now you've inspired me to read The Name of the Rose very soon (and buy Foucault's Pendulum, too). 8y

Thanks to @LazyOwl and daughter for the surprise hand-colored postcard! Love ❤️ it! I had fun with the #MadMarch exchange. My daughter is new to Litsy and participated also, but she's a bit let down that she didn't receive anything from her match. Maybe an issue with the mail? If anyone wants to send her a "like" or follow, her tag is @Dweezlepip to boost her spirits and show her that this a wonderful community! ?

LeahBergen @Dweezlepip I, too, haven't received anything yet BUT it also looks like my person hasn't received what I sent either. I'd give it a little longer; I know that mine had to travel quite far away. 😀 8y
Wife @LeahBergen Good to know. Thanks 🌹 8y

LeahBergen @Simona Haha! I DID mail an envelope a couple of weeks ago. I thought that regular letter mail might take a little longer to reach you. 8y
Simona @LeahBergen 😁😁😁 My 'envelope' is on its way since March 15! 😔 8y
LeahBergen @Simona Yay! I can't wait! 😀 8y
Simona @LeahBergen Too soon to worry? 8y
LeahBergen @Simona Maybe? I won't worry for a few more days. 😀 8y
LazyOwl @Laura317 it may take a little longer as it's coming to you from Australia 8y
Laura317 @LazyOwl Cool!! That is worth the wait! 8y
CherylDeFranceschi @Dweezlepip I promise you I mailed it, but it was a teensy bit late, as I was waiting on something I wanted to send. Hope you think it was worth the extra wait! 😃 8y
CherylDeFranceschi I also have not received anything myself. 8y
