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!
Now for the winners of Hour 24’s Snack and Stacks challenge:

I shouldn’t be telling you this.
There once lived a woman
Who tried to kill her neighbor’s baby.
Demon child.
Promise not to tell
The lords of Salem.

Here the spin poetry – https://twitter.com/RachelW3131/status/889142217515737088
I love writing poetry and I want to add my own touches ones that can’t be made by a book spin.
Darkness demeans
shadow and bone
to play this savage song
The music fades in and out
like a song stuck in a mortal’s head
always chasing their thoughts.
The music plays in
that lonely section of hell
where shadows meet shadows
and there’s no escape.
