#ldrat wrap-up post
Overall, there were a couple of days that were great and considering everything, I did okay. I started reading Wuthering Heights on Saturday afternoon and haven't picked it up since, but I should be able to pick it up tomorrow and read what I need to before Friday morning.
I did get about a quarter of A Farewell to Arms completed and that I am happy with. Also I got a huge portion of The Crown by Nancy Bilyeau completed. I also got Fire by Kristen Cashore completed; now I just have write the review. And I also started a book that I picked up on Friday afternoon, At the Mercy of the Queen.
Considering that I just found out about the readathon the day before it was to start, I did okay and should set me up well for the rest of the week.

Labor Day Read-A-Thon
I have been searching for something to do this coming weekend and was looking specifically for a readathon for this weekend. And I had been looking for a few times for one and was even contemplating hosting one myself, informally if I didn't find anything. Well, that isn't the case any more.
As I was searching the twitter hashtag #readathon, I noticed that somebody had posted a link that Amanda @ Letters Inside Out was hosting one. And I couldn't resist.
It's very simple. It is running from Friday thru Monday night (11:59 pm) and you can read as much or as little as you want. The important thing is that you spend at least a portion of the weekend reading. You can find more information at the sign up and I hope that you will join me.
I am planning on working on:
• Les Miserables
• Anna Karenina
• Bleak House
• A Farewell to Arms
and some others as well.
and will start reading Wuthering Heights.
