Readathon Post 3

Okay, I'm back for that last hour-and-a-half. Who's still awake? Since I last saw you, I swapped my DNF copy of Love In The Time of Cholera for a copy of Nausea, and in the process, met a wonderful bookworm named Amanda. Her taste in books is decidedly dystopian. I also went to book group and they readily agreed to read Little Women for the June meeting. On the way home, I met up with Talya who passed me her copy of Shanghai Baby. I read 4 chapters on the train. The author seems like a Chinese Erica Jong. I used to love Erica Jong when I was in high school, so that's not all bad.
Back to cheering now. Please tell me there's someone out there to cheer to!

  1. I slept for a bit but I have been back at it for the last few hours. Trying to finish up my last book is turning into a challenge....I guess I should be doing more reading and less blogging!

    Good luck in the last stretch!

  3. I had to quit after hour 18 or I would have been worthless today - and I have way too much to do today.

    Sounds like you had a great book weekend in Korea. You've really networked well into the book community there. I tried to do something similar in Algeria and completely flopped...so, congrats.
