The MotherReader 48 hour reading challenge

Having been to a number of shows in the last year where I've picked up ARCs that I haven't had a chance to read yet (yes, this includes books I picked up LAST YEAR), the 48 hour reading challenge issued by MotherReader is one that I think I'll take up after all. (I saw it when she first posted it and thought, "What a great idea! Too bad I don't have the time," but as it comes closer I am starting to think the pile of books is starting to teeter and I'd really like to at least read a couple of them. So perhaps I'll spend the weekend reading. If it's nice weather, I'll take the books to the park and read there.)

If your TBR pile is anything like mine, you're welcome to sign up and join too. I hear there's going to be prizes.

Shoot, last weekend would have been perfect. The in-laws whisked the kid away and I read all of "The Poisonwood Bible" by Barbara Kingsolver. But this week is the kid's dance recital and I also have to speed-proof this sale book by some dipstick who can't get his materials in by deadline. You might know how that goes.

But I'll still give it a shot. Even if I can't clear 30,000 pages, at least I can get a few books (many of which are overdue) off the kitchen counter.

Talk about collossal bad timing
The weekend before I go to Hollins is SO NOT the weekend for this. :( Wah. I'd love to do that, but I seriously cannot imagine a worse weekend this year, other than the wedding!
