Ended my readathon with Last Man Out, which had amazing parts but began a plot arc I Do Not Care For. Time read ended up around 18 and a half hours. #readathon

The Dark, Scary Parts and All by Danielle Paige - AMAZING. It's a mythos I don't usually like but it was used so so well here. Holy crap. #readathon
Probably fine, but I've found the worst thing to do in a readathon is try to force yourself through a book. Then you start the next one all cranky and it can quickly domino. #readathon
Interesting worldbuilding. Lizbeth is GREAT. I am...cautiously excited? Let's just say that, different author, I would be excited, but Charlaine Harris has burned me before. I am still genuinely enraged when I think about the last Sookie book. #readathon
Almost halfway through the readathon and sitting at only 7hr42m. Proooobably not going to be the recordbreaker I hoped for. Just finished Elliott Kay's Run Like Hell and now for some magic gunslinging!
Like any anthology, its quality is highly variable, but I would legit read five sequel NOVELS of Andrea Speed's About a Bot - VERY interesting take on an alien encounter. #readathon
Placeholder tag until the actual book gets added!
I just read The Lady and the Thief, one of the indirect sequels of ASR. I love so so much this verse, a no-homophobia marriage-equality Recency pastiche. Like, give me ALL of the girls in ballgowns having a Season and looking for a wife, PLEASE. #readathon
Perennial favorite. Hilarious and nerdy take on the "light novel". NOT safe for work. #readathon
Cozy small town romance. Seasonally appropriate, even! #readathon
Yugano Yuuki is my hero because I would died immediately from sheer mortification.
Book & snack! Rereading another short one while getting some protein & caffeine. Colby cheese + cold chicken + the best soda (fight me) + an amazing genre send-up that also teaches you about probability & decision theory! (I am going to quote so. many. things.) #readathon #RATbooksnack
1) Chickasha, Oklahoma, so, pretty lucky timezone-wise?
2) Last Man Out by Elliott Kay, book 5 of Poor Man's Fight. But I'm saving it for tonight when it can help keep me awake *fingers crossed*
3) Green tea KitKats!
4) Currently failing my Goodreads challenge HARD bc I got way into translated Chinese webnovels.
5) Small goals! It feels a lot better reaching a goal + setting a new benchmark than failing a "reasonable" goal. #readathon
Going to read a little of this, my pre-readathon book in progress. I usually only do new books for a readathon, so I can more accurately track pages read, but I had to leave off KA in the midst of some prime face-slapping (Boneyard record arc, for any fellow readers). #readathon
I forgot how lightly sketched the characters are in Stine's books, which works much better for me in the monster books.
Mell Eight's Cleanly Wrong is my *favorite* depiction of brownies. Ladder Rung is adorable. #readathon
Trying some short stories now. I love Bobbie Faye THE MOST, I've read Failure to Communicate like six times. #readathon
