Ending Comments
I am so proud of myself this readathon. I actually stuck to my goals and completed every single one of them. I unloaded a ton of library books and even a few from my own collection. I finished one reading challenge and made some great progress on multiple others. I read a ton and restricted my tv viewing, much to the dismay of J. He really doesn't like watching tv by himself. But that's okay, he bought himself a LEGO Millenium Falcon set and was happily engaged for about 5 hours yesterday. I even did the usual housework and went to a few job interviews. Overall, I read some great books: 7 five stars, 3 four stars, and 3 three stars. I had a lot of fun... can't wait until the next one!
