Pickpick

It‘s #Hour 42 (already?) and us #24in48 Readathoners get to pick our favorite read. Here‘s mine: Anne Tyler‘s 3rd novel (1970) about a painfully shy teenage girl who becomes wildly obsessed with a perplexing musician. To see how far this groupie will go to get this rock star‘s attention certainly got mine. 😳

Yay! We‘re halfway there at #Hour 24. I‘ve read 2.5 books and clocked in 10 hours so far. I‘m getting a little too cozy on my Peanuts blanket, but these nutty snacks should do the trick. 🤪

Whether you‘re napping or reading, I‘m sending 🤗🤗🤗 to all!

It's time for the #Hour 36 challenge!
Size matters on my bookshelves. Usually the tallest and thickest hardcovers serve as first and last books on my shelves. They help keep everything else from falling down. 😁📚📚📚

Just a little Over The Garden Wall as a palate cleanser, then straight in The Devil in Silver. @24in48 #hour 18+

After recently rereading this novel and seeing the movie again, my vote for #Hour 18 favorite book to screen adaptation is Fried Green Tomatoes. 🙌🏻Stellar cast who perfectly portrayed each character, beautifully written screenplay that was true to the book and the best extra bonus: a hilarious cameo featuring wonderful author Fannie Flagg. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I'm Readathoning under my warm Chicago Bears blanket this morning at #Hour 9 of #24in48. This is the oldest children's book I own. I wanted to read a book published the year I was born and found this at a garage sale for a dollar. 🙌🏻
P.S. I also grew up with Shari Lewis (Lamb Chop!) and Captain Kangaroo, and I'm still a kid at heart. 😁❤️

PurpleyPumpkin Looks like you‘ve gotten a great start for the readathon! Glad to see you‘re snuggled up with some great reading material. 📚 7y
