Shadow of Night: A Novel | Deborah Harkness

@24in48 just finished my 1st book of the marathon...I had started it a few days ago but saved it to finish this weekend. I won‘t be able to do a full 24 hours of reading this weekend as I have to work all day tomorrow and this afternoon/evening but enjoying my bookish morning #24in48

sprainedbrain I almost never make it to 24 hours...just enjoy whatever reading time you can! 5y

I think I need a week to process and grieve and then I can start the next book...but in the other hand: I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!!!

Got to work an hour early some how so I‘m going to see if I can finish this book!

Seriously, I can‘t believe it‘s been over a year since I reread all of Tamora Pierce... now I can‘t stop! Debating starting book 3 or going to sleep...it takes me around 2 hours to read one of these so if I start it now I will be done around 11pm...ahhhh the troubles of a bibliophile! What‘s a good name for an Uber Tamora Pierce fan????

Nothing says nostalgia more than reading this book, laying on the couch at home in the farmhouse while it‘s a real feel of -1 degrees! Thank goodness for wood stoves, tea and sheepskins. Boy, do I love coming home ❤️

Ok, for any Tamora Pierce fan, you the struggle; the pain has been real waiting YEARS for this to come out. Numair is a most beloved character and we have been waiting so long to hear his story. This book explains so much!!! I seriously can‘t wait for the next one already and hope we don‘t have to wait so long again. 🤩😁😍

IndyHannaJones I'm about 15% in and I have all the feels! I can't wait to go back to the originals! 6y
BooksTeaRobin I know!!! I am about to start rereading in chronological order 😁 6y

Dinosaurs Before Dark | Mary Pope Osborne

I‘m a special education preschool teacher at an inclusive preschool. My classroom is typical and special education students between 3 and 4. I started reading the first book & every child LOVED it! Even my student who understands English but speaks mostly French keeps asking for more! The fact that I can read a chapter book to these kids is one thing, but that the all love it is another! Now I just need to find an inexpensive way to get the rest!

BooksTeaRobin Yes! But the closest she gets to Maine is Boston and I work 7 days a week 😰😰😰 6y

The Heaven Tree Triology | Edith Pargeter

Starting the morning a little slow but very content to spend most of the day reading. I decided I didn‘t want to see how many books I could read but just wanted to read a good book...just happened to be one in a trilogy so now I‘m seeing if I can make it to book 3 by the end of the Readathon...this is so much fun to see what everyone‘s reading, have the challenges, and just get back into long hours of reading ❤️📚

Heaven Tree Trilogy | Edith Pargeter

Reading for 4 straight hours means I stop being able to focus my eyes but boy is this book worth it! It‘s basically Pillars of the Earth but set in a different time and different parts of England...and written in 1960! So so good! Calling it quits for the day night all!

The Heaven Tree Triology | Edith Pargeter

I‘m bouncing between 3 books currently: The Heaven Tree by Edith Pargeter, the Beast is an Animal by Peternelle can Arsdale, and A Breath of Snow and Ashes by Diana Gabaldon...I find by doing this I break them up and keep it fresh...I have gotten sucked into The Heaven Tree something fierce though and think I may focus on just reading the trilogy for the Readathon! Has anyone read it?!? #24in48

Started this while out babysitting because it was the easiest to carry...can‘t figure out if I like the style yet...now I‘m home and switching back to The Heaven Tree because I know I like that one!

Switching to the audiobook of A Breath of Snow and Ashes so I can make some lunch and move around some as I head into hour 4! #24of48

Hr 12 #24of48 fav 3 “The angel, eternally alighting with arched wings and delicate, stretched feet, spread his palms outwards towards the radiance, and bowed in ceremonious humility the youthful, narrow head, with its long gold hair still erect and quivering from his flight.” The Heaven Tree
