Read-a-thon; day 2 UPDATE.

Urgh, today felt like a complete failure!!!!!! I had a difficult appt at the hospital in the morning and that put a downer on the day and no motivation to read at all.  The kids were also on a 'crazy day' so little mummy time to read and when they were sleeping, i was zonked. I even feel asleep with my laptop on my knee-not good!!  The problem is that 3 of my books are on the computer for review as an e-book, i wish they were sent to my kindle as it would make it easier to read but never mind.  I did well considering everything.

On a happier and lighter note, i met my target for myself that i set yesterday, woohoo, proud! I knew today would be difficult with the hospital appointment and that's why i only set a small target.  I did complete my 1st book, the hardback- The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight (I HATE typing that out all the time lol) and i LOVED the book, blog post review will be coming after the read-a-thon!! Also  I'm almost half way through my other book...The Good Father by Diane Chamberlain.....i LURRVVEE this book!

BOOK READ: The same books as yesterday and see above :)
BOOKS COMPLETED: The Statistical.....(see above i hate typing it out lol) and i'm 104/290 of The Good Father...that's almost half way yes??
PAGES READ TOTAL TODAY: 120 pages (80pages from the book i completed and 40pages of The Good Father.
PAGES TOTAL: 318 in 2 days...that's rubbish when people have read 600 in a day lol.

Target for tomorrow ..... is 200 pages, i can hope, hehe.

    Ah sweets, don't worry about it! I've been working on day 1 and off on day 2 and I've still not got a very high page count, only about half yours I think... Hoping to remedy the situation a bit today by getting OFF the internet and INTO a book a little earlier in the day! :)

    I slowed down today, but hopefully after I catch up with some work, and break for the Twitter Chat I can get even more reading done. ;) Have fun!
