I love Read-a-Thons as they push my kids and I to get extra reading time in during the day and to finish all the books on our summer reading list. Not much has changed since my update post a few days ago as the weekend was busy and did not offer up much free time to read. Plus my son came home sick from Boy Scout camp and I had to take him to urgent care. Poor guy.
Luckily, Georgia and I both accomplished our reading goals. I finished three books and Georgia, my daughter finished two.
Here are our book stats: Georgia finished,
1. No Such Thing as Dragons by Philip Reeve
2. Smile by Raina Tegemeier
She started a 3rd book called One Hundred Dresses by Eleanor Estes.
Laura finished:
1. Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier
2. Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout
3. The Homecoming of Samuel Lake by Jenny Wingfield
