Hours read (including audiobook): 19:36Hours blogging: 3:17
Hours networking: 0:54
Total: 23:47
Woohoo! For a 48-hour period in which I had to work eight of those hours, just under 24 hours of reading is not shabby at all. The audiobook certainly helped. I found that I really battled the sleepies on Friday and Saturday nights, but today was much better.
I didn't have any marathon-length books this year, but I also only had a couple that were fast reads. Most sat pretty comfortably in the 250-400 pages range. This helped out because I got a regular rhythm going, particularly today when I could wake up and just hit the books.
I didn't network as much this year. I think a big part of that was because I was out of loop for most of one day. I did miss that, and I hope to do better next year.
With nine books finished, that's at least ninety dollars going to charity. I'll wait a couple of days to count up comments on the blog and see how much the final total is.
So now I have nine (count 'em!) reviews to schedule throughout my summer, and a reminder that yes, this review-writing stuff is really not that hard when you buckle down to it. A valuable thing to remember, always.
Another great year! Thanks to Ms Yingling for hosting, and everyone who joined in the adventure!

Wow, you had a lot of good reads! Congratulations on finishing!
You got a lot done! Way to go!
Thanks for continuing the charity bit. I'll be sending some money to RIF just because I should! The social networking is the fun part-- the reading is the meat and potatoes, and you did a great job on that. Thanks for participating!
What an awesome donation! And that is a fantastic time given that you worked a full shift.
Good for you! I wish I had nine reviews scheduled, but a bunch of the books I read weren't really for review.
Great job on the 48 Hour Book Challenge!
Nine books! Congratulations!
