Congrats on your accomplishments! I'm thinking about being a reader the next time around... I'm curious to see how long I would last, but more importantly, how much I would read.

You did great today! :-)

I'm totally impressed you could put up a post right when you feel like you are going to fall asleep! This was my first time too. Great job!

Great to see another first timer. This was my first time participating too. Some of the books you suggest (Dramarama and A Mango-Shaped Space) sound interesting and I'll be looking into them.

You lasted a lot longer than I did, congrats!

Congrats! You did a great job. I only finished 2 books, as I couldn't hold out the full 24 hours. It was great fun, though.
