Guys! You did it! You made it a whole 48 hours. Did you hit your goals? (It’s okay if you didn’t!) Did you eat delicious things and get lots of snuggly reading time in? Your hosts had a great time with each and every one of you, whether you were checking in on the reg or not. And there were A LOT of you. Our previous record for readathon participants was 1,400; this weekend, we welcomed 1,850 of your gorgeous faces to #24in48 with us and all three of us are totally overwhelmed by the love. We had lots of first timers and its so great to see this little thing growing.
OKAY, I’m going to stop being sentimental and get to the business of closing this place up. First of all, we have winners to announce from Hour 42’s Challenge:
Katie.cat.books
Bry Boyd
Felkins (kab-89)
Dan Riley
Natasha Barnes
Jeni Smith
Valeria Gerasimova
Tina Porubsky

Cynthia Desgagné
If you won here (or during any of the previous door prizes or challenges), go to the Prize Page and pick out your top three choices.
Secondly, we’ll be back for another round of 24in48 on….::insert drum roll::…
July 21-22, 2018
Put it on your calendars, request the time off work now, and get your TBRs ready.
Next, we’d love to know how the readathon went for you. There were some changes this time and a lot of you were newbies, so tell us in the closing survey how this round went and if there’s anything you’d like to see change.
Lastly, if you hit 24 hours, you’re eligible to win one of four prize packs, generously donated by our great sponsors. Fill out the form below to provide proof of your full 24 hours read BEFORE midnight ET on Tuesday, January 30th. We’ll announce the winners of those packs next week.
As always, friends, it’s been a wonderful weekend and from all three of your hosts, thank you for joining us and we hope to see you back here in July.
