I love readathons (what's better than an entire weekend of nothing but books, books, and people who like books talking about books, books, and people who like books?), and the #24in48 is one of my favorites. It's a bit more flexible than the Dewey readathon (the goal: 24 hours of reading in a 48-hour timeframe), and I'm always thrilled when the dates work in my schedule.
The question, of course, is what books to read on these precious reading-only days. This time around, because I have a smash of book club, readalong, review and release deadlines coming up in the next two weeks, I'm going to try to clear through some of my commitments so I can turn to backlist for the rest of the month. Here's what I'm eying:
Zeroes, by Chuck Wendig (the bound manuscript with no spine)
Summer Sisters, by Judy Blume
A Man Called Ove, by Frederik Backman
The Beautiful Bureaucrat, by Helen Phillips
Waiting for Snow in Havana, by Carlos Eire
The Automobile Club of Egypt, by Alaa Al Aswany
Who else is participating in #24in48 this weekend? What's on your stack?
