Who else is doing the #24in48 Read-a-thon this weekend? What are you planning on reading? Is anyone having the age old debate with someone about whether audio books count as reading or not? I say they do because you are having information smooshed into your ears instead of your eyes. Now watching a movie made from a book does not count. It just doesn’t, I don’t know why, I just know what it doesn’t and that may be written in stone somewhere. Or not. If you are joining the read-a-thon, click on the link above and register before it starts at midnight.
Now for me, the #24in48 (click to sign up) is one of my favorite weekends of the year. I can apologetically curl up with a book or several and read until my hearts content. It’s the weekend I get some extra things done around the house because I am walking around with headphones on…thank you Audible, Or I can read on my iPad, or even my phone. But no matter how I read, my favorite is curled up on the sofa with a blanket and a good cup of coffee and an actual physical book. I love that new book smell. With any luck, my dog will be up there with me, just because I am there, not because I am eating Cheetos.
So here are my plans.
So the books that I have chosen to read are:
The Clockmakers Daughter by Kate Morton on audio.
The Author Blog by Anne R. Allen (paperback)
Game of Crowns by Christopher Andersen (paperback)
and if I have time, I am going to start Sleeper’s Castle by Charlotte Strevens.
Ok, readers, I’m getting ready are you? I need to charge my headphones, find my favorite pens and highlighters, because The Author Blog will have me taking notes I am sure.
You can keep up with me on my blog…here, or on my Instagram or on my Twitter.
Happy Reading Everyone!
Cheers
Alex
