1. I'm about to start reading, This World we live in, by Susan Beth Pfeffer.
2. I've finished one book, Orange is the New Black by Piper Kerman. Boy, it was a good one!
3. I'm looking forward to the book named in #1.
4. I tried to make arrangements to free the whole day, but alas, they fell through and I had to work this morning.
5. I haven't had many interruptions now that I'm home from work.
6. Not surprised by much....I am a veteran.
7. Nope. I love it as it is!
8. I would finally, for the first time in two years, clear the entire day and night!
9. Me, tired? No way.
10. I save large print books for the wee hours when my eyes are tired!

R.A.T. Hour 6
I'm finally back home reading after a frustrating morning at work.
For the Book/Score/Soundtrack challenge: I'm reading Orange is the New Black by Piper Kerman. It's a memoir about a woman who thoughtlessly breaks the law as a young, new college graduate and ends up paying the price for it 10 years later by being sentenced to 15 months in a federal prison. My mental soundtrack has been Johnny Cash singing, "Folsom Prison Blues." I think I might actually have to dial this up on my ipod soon.
So far, I have read 62 pages of this book and I am loving it.

24 Hour Read-a-Thon 2010
I was all geared up to finally be able to participate in a Read-a-Thon with no other commitments in the way. I had my stack of books, plenty of snacks and a quiet house. Then I got roped into taking a training for work from 9-12 tomorrow. I am cranky, oh, so very cranky! I'm going to hide a book in my work papers and try to read anyway. I haven't yet been able to participate in a Read-a-Thon without some kind of random event popping up. I'm going to start planning now for October.
Here's the pile I plan to choose from tomorrow:
This World We live in------Susan Beth Pfeffer I read the first two books in this series and
loved them. Can't wait to read this!
The Girl Who Chased the Moon--Sarah Addison Allen Always a good author for a R.A.T.
The Tricking of Freya----Christina Sunley Review copy
Orange is the New Black----Piper Kerman Review copy
Burma Chronicles----Guy Delisle Graphic novel for when the eyes get tired.
The Killer's Cousin---Nancy Werlin I read Impossible by this author and could not put
it down to sleep. I have high hopes for this one.
Only a few hours left before the fun starts! I'm going to bed early and I'll see you all in the morning.
