I had a wonderful day on the weekend. A bit sick so I took myself to couch & then bed and read about 7 hours..
Not a record.. but still a good effort.. I finished the end of one book and also completed my first Jodi Lynn Picoult - "My Sisters Keep" - which I liked.. I had soggy eyes a few times.. Details at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Sister's_Keeper
When you have the opportunity and a good book.. how long can or do you read for ?

Re: Reading Marathons ?
Tue, March 18, 2008 - 11:50 AMWhen I was a kid, I'd skip school to read. I might read from the moment I told my mother I wasn't going until dinner time, without stopping for lunch, and then continue to read well into the night. So... about 18 hours? I don't have the time to read like that any more, unfortunately. Now I have "responsibilities." Ick. lol

Tue, March 18, 2008 - 12:34 PMWhen the final Harry Potter book came out I had several marathon sessions that weekend to finish it. It helped that my boyfriend was sick in bed anyway!

Re: Reading Marathons ?
Fri, March 28, 2008 - 10:18 PMDays! Sometimes I get a weekend away from family obligations and all I want to do is read. I'll gobble the books as fast as I can. But usually, I read about 2 hours a day. That's all the time I have in a normal day, and those two hours are at night after my daughter is in bed.
