Friends, I am making a declaration of war. That’s right. I refuse to do anything productive with my life on Saturday. Dishes? Laundry? Vacuuming? NO MAS! Will anarchy ensue in my home? Well, that is just a risk I am willing to take.
So why am I at war on Saturday? It is the Dewey 24 Hour Readathon. I know that as soon as I sit myself down with a book, that’s an open invitation to everyone around me to talk or to nag. NO MAS!
Here is what I shall use to build my fort:
Readathon Stack!
I will also devote an hour or two to motivating my fellow readathoners, as clearly you need my awesome presence all up in your blog with an encouraging word 
Also, I swear I will not be deathly hungover this time around. I will try to make it for at least 20 hours.
Have you read any books in my fort/stack? Any recs? Let me know if you are participating dear reader, I’d love to leave you a cheerful comment during readathon.

I am planning on doing it this year! I am really excited about it. I have been getting the books together that I want to read too. I LOVE The Mouse and the Motorcycle!
Yay, you are going to have so much fun!
I affirm your life choices and recommend the Nancy Drew. I have a soft spot for Nancy Drew.
I read Nancy Drew wayyy back when, but remember none of it.
Looks awesome April! I’m really excited for this Saturday, and I totally plan to try and make it the full 24!
We’ll see how well that goes over! You’ve got an awesome looking stack there! Good luck!
We can do it!
Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing is in my Readathon pile too (which is set to post in the morning)!! Your post cracked me up, I even read it to my husband.
I cannot wait for Readathon. I plan on 24 hours of reading, tweeting, cheering, and I’m even hosting a mini challenge. Saturday can not get here soon enough!!!
I loved Tales of A Fourth Grade nothing and am excited to re-read it! I’m definitely hopping over to your readathon pile ASAP!
Gosh, I completely forgot about the read-a-thon. Which is a bummer because I love them, but I won’t have enough time to this one since its only a 24 hour one.
From your stack, I have read The Princess Diaries which is a very fast read since it’s written as diary entrys.
The Titan’s Curse is also a pretty quick read and also quite good.
Best of luck in the readathon. ^_^

This Saturday will be my first time participating in the challenge!!! I really hope not to get distracted by the Internet, but I am determined to read at least two books! I’ve only read the Princess Diaries out of your pile. I’ve read a couple of Nancy Drew but not that one in particular.
*puts eyeballs back in sockets* YOU HAZ ENCLAVE!
sorry. I’m better now. As you can tell, me vant it.
I won’t be Dewying, partly because I’ve got other obligations on Saturday, partly because I <3 sleep, especially after a long week.
That’s quite a fort!
I’ll be reading!
HUGE fort! I’ve read The Boy Book, Princess Diaries and Lovestruck Summer from it and they’re all amazing and fun! Hope you enjoy your reading time!
This is a war that can (and should) be won. Last time I had an event the day after read-a-thon and had to sleep. This go round, I have an event the night before. Hopefully, I will drink sparsely and sleep lotsly.
Happy Reading!
I LOVE The Princess Diaries. I hope you get to it this time around!
I loved The Princess Diaries series. Hopefully you’ll get a chance to read it tomorrow. Also, the audio books are really good – highly recommend!
I will also be reading, but will have a late start due to prior appointments.
Have fun reading! =)
The Titan’s Curse: Awesome.
The Mouse And The Motorcycle: Also awesome.
And is that a Nancy Drew? Can’t go wrong there. I haven’t read any of the others, but it looks like you’ve got a pretty rockin’ stack there.
Good luck & Happy reading!!
hell yes, Beverly Cleary!
Glad you’re participating…I missed you last round!
Cheering you on from Michigan – I know we are in hour 3 but I hope you are off to an awesome start!
That’s a heck of a stack of books but they all look good! Best of luck today!
