48 Hour Book Challenge: Finish Line

Well, it's been 48 hours since I started my challenge. I think I could have done better, but I think I did okay with the time I had. My final stats:

Time spent reading/blogging/socializing: 20 hours, 52 minutes
Pages read: 1114
Books finished: 3 (Alanna: the First Adventure, Never Fall Down, Heist Society) + 50% of The Miseducation of Cameron Post + about 38% of my audiobook (Caleb's Crossing)

I wish I'd more time for both reading and blogging/socializing, but for my first time, I don't think I did too badly.

On the plus side, I finished 4 books for the Hub Reading Challenge, though I still had two more I would have liked to have finished. Also, thank you everyone for the comments - I appreciate the encouragement! Now I'm going to take a few minutes to respond to them and visit other blogs to see what other people read!

  1. Congrats on finishing your first one! I think 20 hours is really impressive for your first time. I only had 12 my first time.

  2. Congrats on making it though your first one! I've been wanting to read Caleb's Crossing. Maybe next year...

    1. Thank you! I guess before I started Caleb's Crossing, I was under the impression that Caleb himself was the narrator, which is not the case. I'm not sure if I like that he's not the narrator. I'd be interested to hear other people's thoughts on it.
