The Jaguar: A Charlie Hood Novel | T. Jefferson Parker
Pickpick

This continuation of my last review of Border Lords was an intensely fast read!

This whole series has gotten me sucked into the thriller genre! Also, topical because it's partially set in Southern California where I live and the occasional realities of cartel, gang and gun violence that border towns face.

Next up for #LitsyAtoZ, decided to keep with the Edgar Allen Poe theme since he made an appearance in Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter. #boutofbooks

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter | Seth Grahame-Smith
Pickpick

Historical Nonfiction plus Vampire Fiction satiates all the reading needs! Obviously much better than the movie!

Never too late to join the #LitsyAtoZ ! I was actually doing this before I discovered it during the Readathon. This might be one I actually finish! Haha

19 hours in and my neighbors decided to have a late night bonfire with smoke that came directly into my room, so my allergies and antihistamines are forcing me to tap out! Good night or good morning everyone, it was an epic adventure in reading and snacking with you all today! See you tomorrow after I recover, I'm keeping it going! Haha

#readathon? More like #snackathon ! Sorry Chronicle of a Death Foretold, I've moved on to these beauties! Oh and apple pie a la mode!

Daisey Yep! I use readathon as an excuse to snack all day! 8y
SoAustentatious @Daisey I deserved an unabashed cheat day and it's been absolutely worth it so far! Perked me right up! 8y
ReadingSusan That looks delicious! 8y
SoAustentatious @ReadingSusan Thank you! It was! I'm addicted to mini apple pies! 8y

My third and maybe final book for the #readathon . The caffeine has stopped working, and I'm fading even though I'm riding a book high from Parnassus.

Parnassus on Wheels was just the adventuresome tale I needed to keep me going! It was so good and inspiring!

Next stop on the #Readathon journey, Parnassus on Wheels! This might be a save for later, because five am, plus finals, plus really tiny print might a nap make! But I'm diving in!

After Dark | Haruki Murakami

Had to soak up too much a good read with some nachos before the book hangover sets in. After Dark was great! Mysterious, enigmatic, with just a hint of creepy. I will be revisiting it for some of that goodness in the future! Excellent start to the #readathon!

JDMagnus It looks so good! :) 8y
SoAustentatious @JDMagnus It was so good! And perfectly fitting for a book that takes place during a very long night! 8y

Had to take a break for my final, but I am back in the game! Probably should have read Breakfast of Champions because I had delicious PB&J toast and then aced my final! Haha. Halfway through my first @DeweysReadathon book! #readathon

Let the games begin! Well, they began over an hour and a half ago, but I am just getting around to posting. Since it was still dark at 5 am PST, this was the first pick for the #readathon ! All the excites!

alisiakae Ooohhh, I haven't read that Murakami yet! Let me know if it's good! 8y
SoAustentatious @4thhouseontheleft It was very good! Highly recommend it! 8y

This book nearly broke my heart. I'm not a weeper, but I wept, so have a box of tissues handy. Also, be prepared to potentially be pissed off at the one-sided history you've learned of the war between Israel and Palestine.
