Hour 13

Mid-event survey:

1) How are you doing? Sleepy? Are your eyes tired?
I'm actually not as tired as I was before. I think I've passed tired into that stage of survival mode that is "I can go 8 more hours, but then I'll be dead to the world for the next 48." But my eyes are sore.

2) What have you finished reading?
Eat Slay Love by Jesse Petersen, Unwritten, Vol.1 by Mike Carey, and När du blundar tittar jag by Gunnar Ardelius. I'm halfway through The Last Little Blue Envelope by Maureen Johnson.

3) What is your favorite read so far?
So far, The Last Little Blue Envelope.

4) What about your favorite snacks?
Chips and raspberries.

5) Have you found any new blogs through the readathon? If so, give them some love!
Nope, not yet.

Hour 10

I've finished two more books since my last update; Unwritten, Vol. 1 by Mike Carey and När du blundar tittar jag by Gunnar Ardelius. A graphic novel and a Swedish novel, respectively. The first was good, but the second not very much so. I'm too tired to form a more interesting opinion than that.

I forgot one...

Handsome Devil — The Smiths

"There is more to life than books, you know
but not much more, not much more."

Hour 6

Only a quarter of the way through and my eyes are already bleeding. (Cue rant.) I'm kind of queasy from eating too much sugar, my computer mysteriously just turned itself off, and on the reading front it's going really slow.
Oh, and I'm already having trouble forming sentences in English (thank god for spell check), which is usually a sign of me being really tired. I'll probably look back on this cringing after I've had some decent sleep.

Here's some of the music I've been listening to:


There Is a Light That Never Goes Out — The Smiths


 I'm the One That's Cool — The Guild


Ceremony — New Order

Hour 5

I've just finished Eat Slay Love by Jesse Petersen. I'm kinda disappointed; I thought this was the last part in the series, but it didn't give me the ending I wanted. A lot of things still seems unresolved and it feels like there should be a continuation but there doesn't appear to be one.

My entry in the hour 5 mini-challenge:

Invisible strange music chime in the night garden.

Hour 1

1) What fine part of the world are you reading from today?
I'm reading from Gothenburg, Sweden.

2) Which book in your stack are you most looking forward to?
The Oracle of Stamboul by Michael David Lukas and Chime by Franny Billingsley.

3) Which snack are you most looking forward to?
My home-baked chocolate and apricot cake, and the ready-to-heat pizza I'm having for dinner tonight (I haven't had pizza in a long time).

4) Tell us a little something about yourself!
I am reading this year from my first very own flat. I moved in a month ago.

5) If you participated in the last read-a-thon, what’s one thing you’ll do different today? If this is your first read-a-thon, what are you most looking forward to?
I will set an alarm for every two hours, to keep myself from sleeping through the whole thing like I did last time!
