Although this year I decided not to officially participate in Dewey's 24 Hour Readathon, I nevertheless enjoyed several hours of reading an I also managed to meet my, not so strenuous goals:
- On 22nd October I managed to pass the middle of A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara reaching page 370;
- I started to read The View from the Cheap Seats by Neil Gaiman; and
- I started to read Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë for the first time and I was really enjoying it.
Unfortunately, the 7 days of the Autumn Readathon turned out to be pretty reading-unfriendly: I had to spend long hours at work and when I came home there were several chores to do and when I finally had the time to pick a book, after few paragraphs I felt so sleepy that I couldn't keep my eyes open even though I wanted to read so much. Nevertheless, I manged to:
- read one gothic/spooky book, which was graphic novel Through the Woods by Emily Carroll;
- continue reading Jane Eyre, ending the Autumn Readathon on page 95;
- read some more pages of The View from the Cheap Seats, reaching page 37.
