Bout of Books Read-a-Thon Wednesday Update
08.16.2012
By Zara D. Garcia-Alvarez / @ZaraAlexis
Okay, read-a-thoners! Must…keep…it up! The eyeglasses, the dividing bookmark, the second, sometimes third cup of coffee, and the quiet required to concentrate on character, plot, and narrative. Are YOU still reading? I am—a little. If we could only stop everything else we’re doing and just READ. Yes, that would be my utopia.
Here’s my update for Wednesday:

Other accomplishments: I was able to complete the Word Search Challenge throughout the day, continue to think about my review of The Red House, and also participated in my first Bout of Books Twitter Chat.
