We traditionally begin every Dewey's readathon with a scheduled hour-long sprint. (We will have additional hour-long sprints at hours 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and 24. )
So, gather your beverage, snacks, and book, and let's kick off the 2025 April Readathon with a good solid hour of reading.
On your MARKS ...... Get SET ..... GO!!!!!

I am listening to Killing the SS, by Bill O'Reilly. I started listening while setting up all the hour 1 posts, so I will finish this audiobook during this sprint. (Yay, a finished book, and it is only hour 1!)

;)
