Hour 19
Oct 24th 2009trishOctober 2009 & readathon
A big round of applause for Nymeth, the marvelous co-host of the last six hours! And now it’s my (Eva’s) turn; I’ll be seeing you through to the bitter end. And I couldn’t be more excited!
We’re six hours from the end, and I know it can be hard to push through. I also know when I’m tired, nothing wakes me up faster than awesome music that makes me want to sing out loud and jump around. So each update, I’ll be providing you a Youtube music video to enjoy (if you wish)! Do not judge my taste in music. :p And if you have anything you’d love to here, tell me in a comment and I’ll add it!
Our musical guest this hour: Aretha Franklin with “Respect”
This hour, Shel’s challenging you to Turn to page… The winner gets to choose 3 books from our prize pool.
I know it’s getting into the wee hours, but you’re in the home stretch now, so keep it up!
The winner for my (Eva’s) mini-challenge honouring Dewey: Chris of Book-a-Rama. Congrats Chris! E-mail us (deweyreadathon(at)gmail) to see about your prize.
Still happening:
Nicki’s Mini-Challenge (open until the end of this hour)
Lynn’s Mini-Challenge (open until the end of Hour 20)
Shanra’s Mini-Challenge (open until the end of Hour 20)

Lauraon 24 Oct 2009 at 10:49 pm 7The mini-challenges are a fun way to stay awake in these wee hours. That being said, I’m going to try and keep on reading, despite the fact that my eyes are more blurry than not lately.
Hi Eva! You’re doing great so far, and can’t wait to see what is up your (pajama) sleeve during the next hour!
