Excited to participate in my first Read-a-Thon in April 2016!

Welcome! You'll be hooked after your first one!
So excited you're here for your first readathon! I hope you have fun. And if you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
My first readathon is going well so far! I'm listening to
on audiobook as I'm up and around doing things. I finished
this morning, which I had started earlier in the week. I just finished
and am getting ready to start
, short stories which I plan to pop into throughout the day between other books.
Opening Meme1) What fine part of the world are you reading from today?
Olympia, WA
2) Which book in your stack are you most looking forward to? I don't know if I can choose... I'm looking forward to all of them.
3) Which snack are you most looking forward to? Coffee!!! (Is coffee a snack?)
4) Tell us a little something about yourself! I'm not a morning person so I missed the first hour (will make that up later) and have been dozing off here and there. My strategy is to change locations/positions/book formats throughout the day to wake myself up. I'm also planning to work in my garden to get some exercise - while listening to an audiobook, of course!
5) If you participated in the last read-a-thon, what’s one thing you’ll do different today? If this is your first read-a-thon, what are you most looking forward to? This is my first read-a-thon, and I'm looking forward to making a small dent in my TBR pile. I have a huge stack set aside for the day, half from my personal library and half from the local library of titles on my Goodreads TBR that I don't own. I'm also behind in my Goodreads challenge this year, so I hope to at least catch up, and hopefully get ahead.
Just read
. I loved the illustrations and story.
Spent a couple of hours listening to my audiobook while making and eating dinner, then read
Finished
and trying to finish my audiobook
before I fall asleep - I have less than 40 minutes left of it so I hope I can make it!
Oops, I'm a little late to the party. Couldn't wake up, and it's still too early... :)
