Ready Set GO!

It's appropriate that MotherReader's 48 Hour Book Challenge pulls me out of my protracted blogging slump, since it's that very challenge that got me started in publicly talking about my reading on this blog.

Anyway, the challenge has started, and at 5:15 PM on Friday I shall join in. I've got books piled all around me and the cats on standby, so I'm ready to go! This year I'll track my time read, what books I open, and what books I finish. I'm not going to track my pages -- this is a low math weekend.

I'll read for about 45 minutes, then record what I read, because I have a short attention span.

Time read:
