"I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound and stab us." Franz Kafka
For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.
Starting the Dewey's 24-hour Readathon with a cup of tea and The Brutal Telling by Louise Penny (Pages 372), in a few minutes time. And why not? A mystery novel can only add to the pace! Wish me luck, Folks.
See you all in three-four hours' time.

Best of luck to you! You are the only one I've seen who is starting with tea and not coffee and a pile of snacks! I read a Brutal Telling; it's a great choice for today!
Morning! I started with a banana, granola bar and a bottle of water but soon moved onto a cola.
Will you be reviewing what you read? Not today, mind you, but later?
Good luck! I'm at work so no reading for me but I'll be stopping in when I can!

Good Luck, Good Luck, Good Luck!
Hope your reading is going well, nearly two hours in, so only 22 to go! Enjoy!!
Traditional read-a-thon blessing:
May the bookshelf be there to greet you.
May all the books appeal.
May the fridge be full of tasty snacks;
the words fall soft upon your eyes and until the read-a-thon ends,
may you always hold a book in the palm of your hand.
Good luck today!
Louise here, from Copenhagen, Denmark. The Read-a-Thon began for me at 2 PM, since 5 AM Pacific Time means 2 PM Copenhagen Time ;) I hope to be able to hang around for many more hours... I am not reading though, but having a lot of fun working my way through a lot of great blogs to cheer. GO! GO! GO!
Enjoy your reading! A mystery is a great choice.
Happy reading! Enjoyed Ms. Penny's first book & hope you like this one.
Good luck!
Have a wonderful Day; enjoy your books, and take time to rest as well. It is pouring here so it's the perfect day to be in the house reading and relaxing!
Keep up the great work!
