Now back to reading, but I think I'll spend a little time in the hot tub, reading a relaxing, the perfect combination.

Now I'll answer some questions


1)Where are you reading from today?
Mexico! Part of it in a car, then I'll read in my room  :)

2)Three random facts about me…
I'm entomophobic, I am addicted to fruit punch powerade and I love chiles 

3)How many books do you have in your TBR pile for the next 24 hours?



4)Do you have any goals for the read-a-thon (i.e. number of books, number of pages, number of hours, or number of comments on blogs)?
I wanna read 5 books


5)If you’re a veteran read-a-thoner, any advice for people doing this for the first time?
It's my first time soo...

24 Hour Read-a-Thon

Yeah, people! Tomorrow I'll spend 24 hours reading. I couldn't imagine a better way to spend my Saturday (yes, call me weird). I'm ready! I've got my books, I've got a playlist and I've got food. Now all I need is a little caffeine so I can stay awake, especially after a week of projects at school. I will be actually spending the whole day reading. I'm planning to read 4 books:

Cracked Up To Be by Courtney Summers
Percy Jackson book 2 by Rick Rordan
Tithe by Holly Black
Spiked by Sandra Glover

I will be posting here which books I've finished and will be twitting every hour to report my progress. Looking forward to tomorrow.
