The Readathon is Here!

dewey1Happy Readathon day, friends and fellow readers. I am so excited to spend the day cuddled up with several good books. Throughout the day I’ll be doing updates on my TumblrA Little Bit of Dorkiness, and my Twitter feed (@kimthedork) and, periodically, collecting them using Storify.

You should be able to see the embedded Storify for my Readathon below, but if not follow this link. If all goes according to plan, the most recent updates from the day will be at the top of the feed. 

Happy Readathon!

    Good luck! Today’s read-a-thon is the first in awhile that I won’t be participating in. My mom has a big chorus competition that I’m heading to go see. Your stack looks great I look forward to seeing what you think of the various books especially the Elizabeth McCracken.

    Have fun! I wish I was in on the action. 🙂

    OOOH I see the veronica Mars book in your lineup! Oh please read it and let me know what you think! I saw the movie and this book is on my wishlist for my upcoming birthday 🙂 I almost bought it earlier this month anyway, and it does carry from the ending of the movie, I’m happy to say.

    Good luck with the marathon, I hope you enjoy it. I”m too late to join it – I only just realized I could have a lazy day and read through it. Gah! Next time I will plan better.

      I’m really enjoying Veronica Mars! I have it on audio too, which is how I got some of it in today. I love that Kristen Bell is the narrator.

    I haven’t used audio that much for readathons in the past – but I definitely am this time around. It definitely helps fit in more reading time when I need to be doing other things!

    Enjoy your read-a-thon! Hope you will manage to get some of those books out of the way

    I love how you set up your updates! You ate a pickle with your eggs? 😉

    • Kim April 26, 2014, 6:26 pm

      Right? Gross. But I love pickles 🙂

      • Vasilly April 27, 2014, 12:33 pm

        Ha! You sound like my son! I had to show him your picture. 🙂 You did fantastic with the readathon yesterday!

  • Becca April 26, 2014, 4:59 pm

    Happy Readathon! These updates look amazing, it looks like you’re having a fabulous day. Just stopping by to give you a little cheer! Give me a K! (K) Give me an I! (I) Give me an M! (M) What’s that spell? KIM! Goooooo Kim! (I didn’t say it was a creative cheer. Keep on keeping on!)

    • Kim April 26, 2014, 6:26 pm

      This totally made me laugh out loud when I saw it in my e-mail and when I just reread it. That’s exactly what I needed. Thank you 🙂

  • Denise April 26, 2014, 8:32 pm

    Love your updates! I also loved Mr Penumbra! Happy #readathon!!! Keep reading!

    LOVE Truth and Beauty – it’s my favorite Patchett!

  • Katie @ Doing Dewey April 26, 2014, 11:36 pm

    I would call your Storify experiment a success! Great way of sharing updates! I hope you’re having a wonderful time with the read-a-thon 🙂

    • Kim April 30, 2014, 8:23 pm

      Yeah, it was fun to try that! It didn’t integrate with Tumblr as smoothly as I thought it would, but otherwise I deem the experiment a success!

  • Kristy (Criosti) April 27, 2014, 12:54 am

    I love your updates! Happy Reading!

    Looks like you’ve been having a great Readathon. Your cat is beautiful!

  • tanya (52 books or bust) April 27, 2014, 4:46 am

    The Storify worked really well. And I love that you were wearing your READ HARDER t-shirt. I guess it was the obvious choice.Keep at it! You’re almost done.

    • Kim April 30, 2014, 8:24 pm

      Read Harder did seem like an obvious choice 🙂

  • Diane@BibliophilebytheSea April 27, 2014, 2:28 pm

    Hope you had fun. I was busy all weekend so wasn’t able to stop join in.

    Looks like you had a great read-a-thon! I hope today is a nice recovery day for you.
