Winter's Respite Read-A-Thon

Yea!  Another read-a-thon and another excuse to read as much as I want to.  Which in a cold week like the one we're expecting is really all I'm going to want to do anyway.  Michelle of The True Book Addict is hosting the Winter's Respite Read-A-Thon which started at midnight on Monday and runs through the 23rd--at which point I'll switch over to playing with the blog for the weekend during the Bloggiesta.

My plan is to finish Arti Paasilina's The Year Of The Hare, then it's on to Elyn R. Saks' The Center Cannot Hold: My Journey Through Madness, my fairy tale reads for this week and Jeanette Walls' The Glass Castle.  If I can make it through all of that I'll be a very happy girl (okay, maybe not a girl; I think you all know I'm well past being a "girl" but who want to say "happy middle-aged mom?).
