I managed to put in only 1 hour 15 minutes of reading time last night. It's now 1 pm, Saturday, and I'm ready to sit down to some serious reading. It's too hot and muggy to be outside for long, so I'm going to read in the comfort of my lovely air-conditioned office.

48-Hour Book Challenge End of Day Status
June 4, 2011
Stopping for tonight. I managed 7 hours and 30 minutes today. Add that to yesterday's 1 hour, 15 minutes and I'm up to a total of 8 hours 45 minutes so far. All of today's reading was a historical young adult novel set in the 1930s. It's a work-in-progress I'm critiquing for a friend. I'm almost at the end, but my eyes are getting tomorrow. I hope to finish it tomorrow. Read More

I'd started the book earlier in the day, so it didn't take long to finish, since it's a chapter book aimed at grades 2-4. Fun, light romp.
Now the tough part: deciding what to read next. Read More
