While I didn’t get nearly as much reading done as I would have liked, I did read two books: Supernatural: Bobby Singer’s Guide to Hunting by David Reed and 11/22/63 by Stephen King. I started reading a third book, The Inside Ring by Mike Lawson, but only got about 100 pages in.
I really hope everyone enjoyed Thankfully Reading Weekend! Be sure to take part in the following challenges!

Finished two and 3/4 books, lol..that is pretty darn good for me..slow reader, busy weekend! Hope everyone had a great one!!
Thank you for hosting such a great event. It was a lot of fun.
You read two books, sweet.
I completed 3 unfinished books and wrote all three reviews…I feel ahead of myself for once
This was my first ReadAThon and I LOVED it! Can’t wait to do it again!!
Thanks for hosting again this year Jenn! I had a great time and ended up finishing 4 books (all graphic novels, so it didn’t take me quite as long to read them). In addition, I got caught up on a number of other things and it has left me feeling more motivated and caught up than I have felt in a while. Thank you!!
Was unable to get anything read this weekend. You can find the full explanation here: http://jaynesbooks.blogspot.com/2011/11/thankfully-reading-wrap-up-post.html
Thanks for organising this. I read a lot more than on a normal weekend so that was really good.
Hope everyone had a great time!
I read my goal! YAY! Thanks for hosting this….I left my link in Mr. Linky but not sure it’s taken it. Here’s the link in case: http://www.reviewsbymolly.com/2011/11/thankfully-reading-weekend-wrap-up.html
I finished 3 books and still reading the 4th section of IT for the read-a-long this week. So overall, I think I did well considering I was very play-it-by-ear on this weekend read-a-thon
I finished four books, two being very quick reads. I felt good about what I got accomplished and I had fun. Thank you for hosting this and I look forward to it again next year!
I completed 3 books — just not the original 3 I had intended! I didn’t get to visit too many other bloggers, as my home computer is sooooooooo slooooooooooow! Maybe Santa will help me with that!
I had a great time, Jenn. Thanks for hosting and here’s hoping we can do it again next year!
Thank you! It was so nice to challenge myself to read more (and it gave me a good excuse to leave the laundry for awhile and read!!)
Fun time!
