And we’re off! My first readathon! Whoo hoo!!! … can you tell I’m excited?
Last night I set up my staging area (yes, last night – leave me alone! I’m very excited!) so my readathon could start right on the dot – 11pm here in case you’re wondering.
I’ve taken up residence in the most comfy chair, with my favourite pillow and my favourite blanket – all of which involved undertaking battle with the cat to acquire. But I won (barely) and should be nice and cosy.
And, of course, the number one ingredient for the readathon: a lovely stack of books!
I didn’t list them before in case I changed/added to them (which I did) but here’s the final list. There’s far more than I could ever dream of reading (I’m aiming for 4 or 5), but I sure had fun picking them.

The first one is a fantastic read! of course, you can't go wrong if there is a penguin or 12 in the story. Happy reading.
if I was in my favorite chair, with a pillow and a blankie...I would soon be asleep
