Read-a-thon: Hours 8 and 9


Books Read These Hours: Faerie Tale, Fantastic Stories by Terry Jones.
Pages Read These Hours: 35, 48
Total Pages Read: 169
Books Completed:Faerie Tale
Mini-Challenges Participated In: 2, plus I visited the readers of the hour twice
Time Spent Reading These Hours: 50 minutes, 40 minutes
Remaining Time Spent... Going to the bathroom, petting the cats, walking a bit because my back hurt.
Total Time Spent Reading: 3 hours and 15 minutes
Mugs of Coffee/Tea drank: 3
Comments: I finished Faerie Tale! The ending was intense, but a few things about it were a little disappointing. All in all, though, still a evry enjoyable book. Now I'm reading the Terry Jones book, and my number of pages increased because it has lots of pretty pictures by Michael Foreman. It's a tiny book (80 pages), so I should finish it within the next hour. I will also grab some dinner and visit my fellow read-a-thoners. I hope everyone's having a great time!

I have stopped reading as my mind told me to rest. After a long working day, I couldn't take it any more. You are doing well.
ReplyDeleteHave fun, reading!
Glad you (mostly) enjoyed your first book. It's nice to mix it up with something smaller with illustrations. Enjoy your dinner.
ReplyDeleteGraphic novels thats the ticket! hehehe.. glad you are having so much fun!!!
ReplyDeleteThere is always time for petting the cats!
ReplyDeleteKeep it up :)
Good job. We should have a pet-a-cat-a-thon!
ReplyDeleteI think I should have stocked up on some graphic novels :)
ReplyDeleteYou are doing great Nymeht... Enjoy your dinner. I'm take a bit of a break, going to make some coffee and get back to my book.
yep, i think i too will be stocking up on graphic novels next time! You're doing great Nymeth, sounds like you're having fun anyway! :-)
ReplyDeleteGood idea to take a little walk--I think I'll do the same!
ReplyDeleteMy back was starting to hurt too! I'm getting tired already which is NOT good...I think I need to switch from cokes to strong coffee again!
ReplyDeleteIf your kitties anything are like our kitties, I'll bet you're doing a lot of petting while you're reading, too!
ReplyDeleteDebi, my cat abandoned me *cries* Well, he was here for the first 9 hours and I expect he'll be back later, but I wanted to sound dramatic for a bit :P
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comments, everyone! Fantastic Stories is not a graphic novel, just a collection of short stories with illustrations, but I do have some graphic novels saved for later!
The fur kids definitely need attention plus it's a good tension breaker. Good for you on finishing up your book. Keep it up!

ReplyDeleteOh no! I'm sorry to hear the stories were a little disappointing.
ReplyDeleteAnd I keep forgetting to walk around as well! Sounds like a good plan.
you're so lucky to have a cat to pet...I should go for a walk too, but it's dark outside!
ReplyDeletehappy reading, the night is starting:)
