The High Summer Read-a-Thon wrapped up yesterday and while I didn't get quite as much reading done as I'd hoped to, I did get two books read and got a good start on a third.
True, I didn't have much choice about getting through The Chalice since I had to read it in time for a scheduled review. Also true that I might well have made the time to read all of Beth Hoffman's Looking For Me readathon or not. I was hooked from the first paragraph and Hoffman had me in tears by the time I was done reading, something that very rarely happens.
My plan going into the readathon was to read a book for review after The Chalice followed by something I've had on my bookshelves for a while. For that book I chose Alice Hoffman's The Ice Queen; I've read about a fourth of it so far and should be able to finish it in the next couple of days.
Even though I didn't get as much reading done as I'd hoped to, the High Summer Read-a-Thon may just have kickstarted my reading mojo again. I'm excited to be reading again; thanks, Michelle!
That's still a lot of book to get through! Glad it's kickstarted your reading again :)
ReplyDeleteI am glad Beth Hoffman's book was so good! I hope to read it one of these days.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you had a good time during the read-a-thon, and I'm glad it's helped you get back into reading. I saw it mentioned on Twitter this weekend, but hadn't heard of it before then.
It makes me happy to know that my novel helped you get your reading mojo back!
