Dewey's Read-A-Thon Update | 8am - 12pm

I started reading at just about 8am and set my stopwatch on my phone and started reading. And didn't stop until I finished the first book and didn't feel like I had to push myself through it, which was a relief considering how my reading has been going lately.

Books:
Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli (started and finished - 303 pages)
Predator: Fire and Stone by Joshua Williamson (started and finished - 126 pages)
Ask the Passangers by A.S. King (started - 40 pages)

# of Pages Read: 469

# of Books Read: 2

Time Spent Reading: 3 hours


I really enjoyed Simon and the Homo Sapiens Agenda - I had some minor problems with it at the beginning, but it was also just so painfully adorable at points I didn't know what to do. Ask the Passangers is definitely a more serious YA contemporary, but I guess it's a LGBTQA+ reading time or something? (I actually just picked it up without a thought, and then went... ooh yeah. Well, cool, I guess. So we are just going with it).

And then Predator: Fire and Stone - eh, but almost done with this event thing. I'm enjoying it over all, but it's not amazing or anything.

How are YOU doing? What are you currently-reading?

  2. Honestly, inpressive page count. I haven't read a hundred pages yet! Way to go!

    Hope you enjoy the AS King novel. I've been meaning to read something by her for a while, since she tackles big issues and delivers great narrative, or so I've heard.

    Happy reading from #TeamSherlock!
