Guys, you’re halfway there!! (Okay, the official timeclock is halfway there.)
You’ve totally got it under control. But, ya know, Sunday is notoriously harder than Saturday on the readathon calendar, deceptively so. You think you know what you’ve got left, you probably got a lot of reading done, and you’re feeling confident. But Sunday is the day when responsibilities that were neglected creep back in, the lethargy from sitting and reading can spell unexpected naps, and you might have trouble getting into that next book because you’ve had a good run so far. So give yourself permission right now to go to bed if you need to, take a break, get some sleep, and start fresh tomorrow.
If you’re a night owl or if you’re not based on the east coast of the US (which is probably most of you), I’ve got another challenge for you. In the comments, leave a photo (or a comment) of your snacks or your stack of books for this readathon weekend. I want to see what’s on your TBR and your TBE (that’s To Be Eaten, obvi). Mostly I want to live vicariously through all of your yummy food and your pretty, pretty stacks. You’ve got until Hour 30 to enter (that’s six hours from now).
Oh, but before you go, the winners of the Hour Zero Intro Challenge are:

French Toast for breakfast, and tomorrow’s snacks will be mostly fruit, maybe some popcorn, and I may take a trip to Juiceland.

Maybe I’m going at this all wrong, but my TRB only consists of the book I’m currently reading (Bird Box by Josh Malerman) and one audiobook for those times when I can only listen. I’m not a super fast reader and would rather add a book if I need to rather than feel like I failed at finishing a daunting pile of books.

No midnight snacks for me, I’m afraid. But I did eat ice cream earlier, so I guess that counts?
I have fallen behind and am crushed by the fact I won’t reach 24 hours (8h30 in one day is not bad, you might say, but I’m still disappointed).
