Hours 9 and 10: Book 5


Update: I have just gotten my second wind!! We'll see how long it lasts!! I'm almost done with laundry. Now I'm thinking I'll dust during my eye rest break!! How is the reading going for the rest of my friends???? I'm going to do my cheerleading during the 14 hour mark.....it will help keep me awake and hopefully allow me to stay up just a tad bit later than I thought I would make.

P.S.- Don't forget I'm reading YA/children's books so I'm able to get through them a little faster!!! I choose this genre just for that purpose and because I've been wanting to read these books for some time now!! I have to keep my recommendations fresh for the students at my middle school!!!

Book 5: Four Things My Geeky-Jock-of-a-Best-Friend Must Do In Europe by Jane Harrington
Time Started: 5:55
Finished: 8:22 pm
Pages: 160
Quick Thoughts:
I adored this book from the beginning to the end. Written in letter form Brady (a girl) is on a week long European cruise with her mother. Her best friend Delia wrote on her hand 4 things she HAD to do!! Absolutely hilarious!! There is a sequel which I will be starting next!
