There are weekends when there is a 24 hour readathon and you make a valiant effort (I have never succeeded in this) and then there are weekends when you read for 20 minutes and then decide to watch four episodes of the CW show Reign (I have always instead done this).
Well, not that show in particular, but its basic equivalent and OH HOW MUCH I LOVE REIGN NOW and it will get its own post later and you should all probably start watching it because season 1 is on Netflix and then we can discuss the intrigue and also whether we think Kenna is bright and ambitious or just a skank.
I'm close to being done with Horrorstor, The Boundless, and....probably some others. But those two for SURE.
The problem with reading Horrorstor is I cannot comfortably fit it in my purse, but it's scary to read at night, so I have like a 20 minute window after work before it gets dark, so it's been slow-going. I know it takes place in basically an IKEA and that I do not live in an IKEA, but I'm also fully aware that H.H. Holmes has been dead for over 100 years and cannot get me but that did not stop me from calling my friend and making her stay on the phone with me while I made sure he was not hiding in my closet after I watched a documentary about him.
You know what this online book blogging community needs. Another minithon TIKA I AM LOOKING AT YOU. Eight hours is about what we can handle. And then I can make minithon tacos, which are the same as normal time tacos, but I am eating them during a minithon.
We should do minithon challenges this time, though. Like "How artistically can you photographically capture your snack choices for the day?" and "Whose reading pile is the most overly ambitious?" (it will be mine)
If we have it soon, though, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna blow off reading the entire time and watch episode after episode of Reign (there are 22 of them!!). So let's maybe plan for not-October. Yes.

I would have made ALL these ducks come with me |
