Good morning, fine people! It’s 6am by my watch and we’ve got a WHOLE ‘NOTHER DAY OF READING IN FRONT OF US! ISN’T IT EXCITING??
I’m super pumped (especially since Sunday is usually the day I actually get to read things). It’s a much more chill day, as readers either buckle down to try to hit 24 hours or realize they’ll probably fall short and decide to just read for the sake of reading. Whichever you are, just know that I’m super proud of you and there is no failure in spending the whole weekend reading. So keep going, turn those pages, and keep cheering each other on.
One way to wake your brain up and get ready for the new day of reading is to make some art. Specifically, give me your very best spine poetry. What is spine poetry? It’s using the titles of books on the spines to create a little verse. Here’s one of my favorite examples in recent memory:
Leave a comment and include a photo (or a link to a photo) of your best spine poetry. You have until Hour 36 to enter!

My early morning, last minute on Litsy:
Cruel Beautiful World
Everything we left behind,
the buried giant, voracious
in a dark, dark wood.
And the mountains echoed all the truth that’s in me, the quiet child.

My best spine poetry was this bit of haiku I created for January 2017’s 24in48 Readathon:
Changeling, At Grave’s End,
The Woman Who Died a Lot,
Dead Ice – Night Broken
It’s rather sad, but I like it. 🙂
