Thankfully Reading Weekend 2012: Wrap-Up Post
November 25, 2012 7 Comments
This weekend was the Thankfully Reading Weekend that lasted from Thursday morning until Sunday night. A good excuse to spend a lot of time reading over the Thanksgiving weekend (in USA, or just any old weekend here in the Netherlands 🙂 ).
These were the books I attempted:
- Heft by Liz Moore – FINISHED I had read 82 pages before, so for this read-a-thon I started counting at page 83!
- Nacht in Parijs (Night in Paris) by Michael Berg – FINISHED I had read 35 pages already so I started counting at 36. This is an ebook.
- The Sealed Letter by Emma Donoghue. READING I’m reading this in Dutch, for review.
- Eerst een huis (First a House) by Cathelijn Schilder. Never got round to it 😦
I didn’t read all that much on Thursday and Friday, managing 391 pages in total. On Saturday I finished the first 2 books, and read 396 pages that day. Not bad! On Sunday I read another 200 pages, making a grand total of 987 pages.
Wow! That’s almost 1,000 pages in 4 days!
I loved joining in with this read-a-thon! Thanks to the organisers, Jenn of Jenn’s Bookshelves and Jennifer of The Literary Housewife!
I think you did a great job!! Thanks again for participating!
Good for you Judith! I thought I was going to have a lot of reading time this weekend but unfortunately it did not work out that way 😦
I hope you did something better instead, Suzanne!
Congratulations! Almost 1000 pages in a weekend is pretty impressive!
Thanks, Alexia.
Congratulations on doing so well!
Thanks, Vasilly!
