A hauntingly beautiful novella that I‘m hoping to finish tomorrow!
pickI couldn't have come up with a better title for this book. I felt off kilter the entire time I read this book. I'm not sure I grasped exactly what was going on, but I couldn't stop reading it. It's a short read that I'll be revisiting because I have suspicions. Good stuff.
My youngest became more and more demanding of my attention as the weekend went on and as much as I'd like to finish my fifth book during #24in48, she is much more important. ☺️
I had a wonderful experience and I'm so happy to have taken part. Many thanks to @24in48 and @Litsy for everything. What a weekend!
I cannot believe I'm stating my 5th book of the weekend! Given that it's only 119 pages, I might even finish it. All told, I probably will only hit 18ish hours today, but I'm calling #24in48 a success!! 🎉🎈🎉🎈🎉🎊
In my past read-a-thon experiences, I need to have variety, some quick reads, and some non-traditional books. Here's the stack I've culled from my shelves for the 24in48 event. I'm getting pretty excited!
