HELLO AGAIN. It’s time for another check-in (and door prizes!).
Most likely, I (Kristen) am just waking up because my dogs were too cuddly and warm and leaving my bed seemed difficult, and I’m stumbling into the shower to become human. Rachel doesn’t move until she coffees, I don’t coffee until I shower. Kerry has usually run 30 miles or something by now. We all have our morning processes.
Now that I’m awake, I’ll say good morning! We’re about 20% of the way through this thing, and it’s All. Going. Great.
How do I know that?! You’re here, you’re reading, and those are two of my favorite things. This readathon means a lot to me, and watching it grown and morph into an even better version of itself every year is one of my greatest joys.
What are you reading? How are you doing? Are you just getting started, or rolling on into hour nine like a champ? Let us know in the comments, or tag us in a post on social media using #24in48!
Also, don’t forget to complete the Hour 6 Reading Nostalgia Challenge (winner announced in Hour 12!), and I’m gonna give y’all another reminder about the Intro Survey! And now…the door prize winners!

I’m up and at ‘em. I took a short nap but have been back at it for an hour. I am currently reading a book called Bird of Paradise written by a local Tulsa author who happens to be a friend. I’ve got my breakfast and third cup of coffee by me and am moving on!

Finished my first read, and now am onto Morning Star by Pierce Brown. It’s ironic that you keep using The Good Place gifs because I started it yesterday, which I’m regretting because now I really, really want to binge it 😣

Sidenote: I just discovered a Canadian company that does monthly book + bookish treats boxes. It would be awesome if they offered to donate prizes for a future 24in48! https://sweetreadsbox.com/

Jumped right into the day with a non fiction tome about Mary Queen of Scots. I figured I’d tackle this one while I was still fresh and save the thrillers for later when I need the boost

I was quite fresh till the 8th hour and then sleeplessness and hunger pangs kicked in &I cooked myself a delicious french toast.
I started with non fiction and managed to finish 1/4th of it and then tackled Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern and read some 202 pages. Now starting with the third book, ‘The Bear and The Nightingale’ by Katherine Arden.
