Please don’t forget my two current giveaways: My 4th Blogiversary Giveaway ending April 24 and my Birthday Giveaway ending April 26!
I'm really sad I missed out on this read-a-thon! But it was my birthday and I knew right from the start that I couldn't possibly be around for the entire 24 hours. Plus, tomorrow is the first day of the new semester and I'd very much appreciate being wide awake! Also, I thought I would be busy with something, which fell through - and I only found out far, far too late *sigh*
But aw, what have I missed. After reading a few blog posts, I felt so sad I marked every RAT-post as read in my reader. I am so annoyed that I couldn't join in in any way (not long after my family left, our sweet neighbors came over and stayed - for for a quick visit for more than 2 hours!). All in all, it was a fun day with wonderful people, but I missed the whole atmosphere of the read-a-thon!
On the bright side, I'm participating in Jen's Detectives Around the World! I will be posting my review of Batya Gur's Literary Murder and some additional info on Thurday, so watch out for it!

Read-A-Thon woes

We missed you! Hope you had an excellent birthday!
This was my first read-a-thon and I really enjoyed it. Admittedly, I napped through big chunks of it and thus missed a lot of challenges and whatnot, but it was still great fun to spend a whole day reading with a bunch of equally bookish people --even though we weren't in the same place or reading the same book.
There's another read-a-thon in October and I hope to see you on the sign-up list :)
Hope you had a fun birthday celebration!
