Sunday Salon and Read-a-Thon Wrap-Up.













The Sunday Salon.com

It is now 12 noon on December 6. As with October's Dewey Read-a-Thon, I ended around 1:00 am despite all my best efforts to stay awake, which included four cups of coffee at 8:30. Apparently I am immune to caffeine.

Now for the Dewey Read-a-Thon, I totaled around 320 pages. Let's see how I did this time around!

286 pages of David Michie's The Magician of Lhasa (complete book)
+
116 pages of Roberto
BolaƱo's The Savage Detectives
______________________________
402 pages total


Not a huge difference, but it's an improvement.

Here are all of my posts:

First off, a shout out to Dreadlock Girl for hosting the December Read-a-Thon! I would also like to congratulate my buddies Bitsy, Corina, Melissa C, and tanabata for their achievements, and also thank them for their continued support. And great job to fellow readers debnance and Sarah!

Here's to more Read-a-Thons!

Congrats on finishing! I wish I had time to o things like this since a marathon seems to be the only way I can get reading done.

It WAS fabulous, wasn't it? I'm so glad you joined. It was fun to find so many new blogs, but also great to have a familure one as well.

Padfoot: I hear you! If I hadn't done this marathon, The Magician of Lhasa would still be unread and unreviewed.

Tuulenhaiven: I'm glad you and debnance did the Read-a-Thon too. All of the other blogs were new to me. It was great to have familiar some familiar faces.

Wow, I'd really like to do one of those Read-a-thons... but unfortunately, I guess someone here wouldn't appreciate being kicked out for the day! Congrats on yours anyways!
