24 Hour read-a-thon update 4: I is for ... Induced Insomnia

This is a double post, I'm combining both my participation in the A-Z blogging challenge with the 24 hour read-a-thon.

These are my current stats:
Book reading: Feast of Souls by Celia Friedman
Page: 337
Time spent reading: Not long enough
# of coffees: 4
Status: Look at the picture, this is how I'm feeling right now :P

I don't suffer from insomnia, nor have I ever, but for this night I am artificially inducing it in order to take part in the read a thon. I've pulled all nighters before, the last one was to watch The Lord of the Rings back to back (all 12 hours of it). It was awesome! So long as I've got enough coffee in me, I can take on the world.

I've only got about 6 hours of reading left. I have to leave for work at 5am, and I won't be back until 9am (GMT). I'm hoping that I can finish Feast of Souls and be started on Living With Ghosts by the time the sun comes up.

A big big thanks to everyone who's commented to support me so far. I promise I'll reply to them all and I'll hop on over to your blogs to comment and say thanks once this is all over (before sleep takes over!)

  1. The reading will stop
    Tomorrow
    Bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow
    your book count will be higher
    Just keep thinking about tomorrow
    all the great books you will have to talk about
    with your blog friends
    If you get blurred or sore, or sleepy
    Just stick up your chin
    and grin
    and say
    My TO BE READ PILE, Tomorrow
    will be smaller than it was before
    and your spirits will soar
    because then TOMORROW, TOMORROW You can go shopping TOMORROW at Amazon and BUY SOME MORE!
