Dewey's 24 Hour Readathon


It's that time of the year again! The clock struck 2pm and the Dewey's 24 hour readathon has oficially began! I will be posting my progress here, on Twitter and on Instagram stories. Here we go!

3pm - I haven't done much reading actually... but i'm finally sitting down to make so progress on Beloved by Toni Morrison. It's a slow read but one I'm enjoying.

4: 49pm - read 53 pages of Beloved and reached part II of the book. I'm taking a break and then I'm gonna start 84 Charing Cross Road.

6: 04pm - decided to do a 40 min sprint and ended up reading 51 pages of 84, Charing Cross Road. It's such a lovely episotolary book.

8: 49pm - took a break to have some dinner and paint my toenails and watch some booktube. Then, will got back to my books. I have 70 pages left of Beloved and haven't read anymore of 84, Charing Cross Road but I'm planning on reading that one during the night.

10: 40pm - I finished 84, Charing Cross Road. It was delightful. My edition includes its sequel, The Duchess of Bloomsbury, but I won't be reading it for the readathon. I'm gonna be taking a break before getting back to Beloved.

1: 22am - Haven't read a single page because I decided to finish Unorthodox (so good!); will continue now until i fall asleep (which i'm pretty sure it's gonna be soon).

8: 51am - And I did fall sleep.... but I managed to read a few more pages of Beloved before closing my eyes. Now I'm wide awake and ready to finish the novel.

10: 17am - Finished Beloved. Will now have some breakfast (coffee + brownie) before starting my reread of Pride and Prejudice.

12: 36pm - Read 50 pages of Pride and Prejudice. Season 4 of The Last Kingdom has just dropped and I'm watching the first episode because I cannot wait. Will read afterwards until the readathon comes to an end.

2: 00pm - And the Dewey's readathon is over! Managed to finish two books: 84, Charing Cross Road and Beloved, and started Pride and Prejudice - read 73 pages. I've had a lot of fun this time and now I can go back to The Last Kingdom without feeling guilty haha.

The Gif Tag!

Jess over at My Reading Dress – seriously, go follow her! – tagged me a while ago to do the Gif Tag and I haven’t been able to post it earlier because I have no clue about technology and I couldn’t make the gifs work so I had to investigate a bit. Also, I haven’t read most of the books of the list. I really hope this works out alright so without further ado, let’s get started! Oh, I might have used more than one gif for some of the books...
