Forgive me, friends; I got so wrapped up in my book that I forgot to post the Mid-Event Survey at the event‘s midpoint! How are y‘all doing? Still going strong, or do you need a wee reading break? —@xicanti

We‘re almost halfway through Dewey‘s 24-Hour Readathon! I hope you‘ve all found some great books to wallow in, eaten some tasty snacks, and hung out with some nice reading companions. My own reading buddy blessed me with a good, long snuggle earlier. —@xicanti

It‘s all books, books, books here at Hour 8 of Dewey‘s 24-Hour Readathon. How much have you read so far? How much more do you think you have in you?
Remember, it‘s never too late to join the Readathon! The point is to read as much as you‘re able to in these 24 hours, in company with cool people. There‘s no pressure to actually hit 24 hours of reading time. As long as you‘re having fun, it‘s all good! —@xicanti
#readathon #deweyapril
Can you believe we‘re almost at Hour 4 for Dewey‘s 24-Hour Readathon? The day goes by pretty quick when you‘ve got a stack of books to tackle.
How‘re you all doing so far? I‘m 40% into my with-eyeballs book and 23% into my audiobook, and I‘m about to dive into a comic. —@xicanti

🎉Annnnnnnnnnnd that‘s a wrap! 🎉 Woohoo! Another readathon has come to an end. I hope you all were able to spend some time reading great books, and got to relax a bit. Thank you to Andi and Heather for letting me play on Litsy, and for putting this on for so many years. ❤️ This was their last readathon as organizers, but the torch is being passed to Kate and Gabby! We‘ll let you know when we have a new date. Stay safe, littens. 😘 - @Liberty
Good morning, readers! I‘m getting ready to read what will probably be my last book of the readathon. It‘s about a dinosaur detective. He‘s a triceratops who investigates a serial killer! The summary sounded so wild, I just had to have it. Hope you‘re having a great morning. I‘ll see you all at the finish line. 🦖- @Liberty
It‘s the witching hour here on the East Coast! I‘m getting ready to read the new book from one of the most exciting new voices of the 21st century. I can‘t wait to start it! Anyone else still awake? 📚 - @Liberty
How are we already halfway done?!? It has been a lovely day here in Maine. I‘ve spent most of it reading in the hammock. I‘m looking forward to picking my next read and settling in for the night. How‘s everyone else doing out there? 📚 - @Liberty
We are in hour 7 here on the East Coast. I‘m trading in my epic novel for this graphic memoir. Hope everyone out there is having a lovely afternoon. Don‘t forget to get up and move around, and stay hydrated! ❤️ - Liberty
We are already almost to hour 4 of the readathon! How is everyone doing out there? I have been slowly making my way through this amazing epic, and decided to read another chapter today. It‘s only seven chapters long, but the book is 934 pages long, so each one is like reading a novella. I highly recommend checking it out. ❤️⭐️🖤 @Liberty
Good morning, book fans! It‘s time for another fun weekend day where we spend time doing our favorite activity: READING! The world is a much different place than the last time, and I know it‘s hard to focus right now. Don‘t worry about how much reading you get done. Today is about spending time with other book lovers online and trying to take a little time for yourself. I wish you all a wonderful readathon, no matter what you‘re doing.😘 @Liberty
🏁WE DID IT! 🏁 Another fun #readathon under our belts! It‘s hard to believe it‘s already over. Time flies when you have your face in a book. ❤️
How is everyone doing out there? Who‘s ready for a nap? 🙋♀️ I had so much fun, and read a lot of great stuff this weekend. Thanks to the Dewey‘s team for asking me to hang out once again. Remember that any time spent reading is a win, because YAY BOOKS. Have a great day, littens! 😘📚❤️ - @Liberty
There‘s less than five hours left in the readathon! Is anyone else still awake out there? 😴 - @Liberty
Less than 7 hours to go! Farrokh and Zevon are keeping me company as I start my next read. 🐈🐈 - @Liberty #readathon
How is everyone doing out there? I think I discovered the secret to staying up all night to read books is to spend the day reading about scary stuff that makes you afraid to go to sleep, lol. Here‘s to another 8ish hours of #readathon!🌖💫📚- @Liberty
🎶 WHOAAAAAAAA, WE‘RE HALFWAY THERE, WHOA-OHH, READING ON A CHAIR. 🎵
We‘re in hour 13 here for the #readathon. How is everyone doing? What‘s the best thing you‘ve read so far? 📚❤️📚- @Liberty
We are in hour 9 of the #readathon! My bf‘s band is getting ready to have a long practice session at our house, so I‘m changing locations for a while. I don‘t know that I‘ll have internet, so here‘s a picture of what I hope to read while I‘m away. I hope everyone is having a blast, getting up and moving around, and drinking water. I‘ll see you later tonight! 😘 - @Liberty
We‘ve made it a quarter of the way through the #readathon! I hope everyone is relaxing and enjoying themselves. Remember that it‘s supposed to fun, and any amount of time spent reading is a win! 💙
I have moved on to this true crime book by the author of AMERICAN DIRT, which is going to be one of the biggest novels of 2020. I‘ll catch you littens again in a couple hours. 😘 - @Liberty
AND WE‘RE OFF! 🎉 Good morning, book fans, and welcome to the 2nd 2019 Dewey‘s #Readathon. I‘m @Liberty and I‘ll be your host for the next 24 hours. I‘m so excited! I‘m kicking my reading off with NINTH HOUSE, because it‘s spooky book season, and I‘ve got 200 pages left. ☠️
.
I hope you have wonderful things to read today. Remember to get up and move a lot, and be sure to eat snacks and stay hydrated. And HAVE FUN. What‘s everyone reading? 🎉📚🏆

I‘m off to...keep reading. 🤣I‘ll see you kittens soon. 📚📚XX, @Liberty
Good morning, readers! Hour 20 is upon us. I took a small nap and now I‘m wide awake here in Maine and ready to finish strong. (Zevon, not so much. But he‘s happy to cheer me on.) How are you all doing out there? 🐈 📚❤️- @Liberty #readathon
We are headed into Hour 16! Who‘s still with me? What are you reading? I am getting ready for the new Bryn Greenwood! 📚 - @Liberty #readathon

We are in Hour 7 - how‘s everyone doing?? I switched books when the mail arrived because I have REALLY wanted to read this one. I‘ll go back to the other one when I‘m done. Hope you‘re reading something wonderful. And make sure you get up and stretch! 📚❤️🍇 - @Liberty #readathon
Welcome and happy reading to all of you participating in the #readathon today! Whether you read for 24 hours or 24 minutes, the point is to HAVE FUN. And please be sure to stay hydrated, eat snacks, and get up and move around. (“I‘ve seen her dehydrate, sir. It‘s pretty gross.) I‘ll be here in the Dewey‘s secret volcano lair for the duration. I‘ve got my reading nest all stocked. I‘m kicking things off with THEME MUSIC. What‘s your first book? 📚
See you in the spring! ♥️
AND THAT‘S A WRAP! Another Dewey‘s Readathon is on the, well, books. 🤣

I‘ll see you cats at midnight. ❤️ - @Liberty #readathon
Hey, Littens! It‘s hour 9 - how is everyone holding up? i am refreshed from my nap, and back at it! I read a couple graphic novels (neither of which are worth a mention) and now I‘m enjoying this slim novel that comes out in January. Hope you‘re having lots of fun! ❤️ - @Liberty #readathon
Book 3: This book was adorable! And now I must nap, because I am still sick, and it‘s important to listen to your body. Hope everyone is having a wonderful #readathon so far! “See” you in a bit. 📚❤️😴 - @Liberty
It‘s already hour five of the readathon! GO TEAM. I‘m enjoying SWEEP, and making lunch. I like to carbo-load for readathons like I‘m running a race. But then I get in my hammock in my jammies and read books. BEST. RACE. EVER. What‘s on the menu for you today? - @Liberty #readathon 📚
Today‘s #readathon attire. Anyone else decked out in literary-related shirts? 📚- @Liberty
Book 2: I loved this. It‘s charming and funny and heartfelt. 😍😭 - @Liberty #readathon

Remember, the most important thing is to HAVE FUN. Be sure to drink lots of water, have snacks, and sleep when you need to. Taking care of yourself and having fun is more important than logging time.
