Closing thoughts: The cheerleaders this time were amazing and the readathon was fun and relaxing. Thank you to all who put this together. I know it must be such hard work but it is something many of us look forward to and would truly miss. As someone who is having a very hard year, this is the only vacation I'm likely to get for the foreseeable future and it was a good one!
Great job with the read-a-thon. I have been wanting to read Patricia Briggs.
ReplyDeleteDo try Patricia Briggs books. They are fun, generally quick books to read. My favorite is her Hurog Duology which is more traditional fantasy but for urban fantasy nothing beats her Mercy Thompson series.
