You guys are doing awesome! Some people have already finished a book (usually those are short books or graphic novels), the cheerleaders are doing FANTASTIC, and we got #readathon to trend on Twitter! Woohoo!
Mini-challenge
Let’s keep up the energy with the next mini-challenge. Our host is Bart from Bart’s Bookshelf, and he’s asking you to grab 3-4 books and make a sentence out of the title. You’ll take a picture of the spines, and the best sentence will win! This mini-challenge will stay open for three hours.

Anyone else having trouble getting to Barts blog? It keeps coming up as an error and I tried going through google to get to him as well and it still wont load. I am having no problems with any other links or websites.

Sheila: Yeah, I had trouble for a few. It does that when too many people are getting on. Just keep updating it every few minutes. I think theres only so much bandwidth probably.

I am so excited, I am a cheerleader and I did all of the readers on the list for hours 1-6 for my team. YEAH!!! It only took 2 hours!!! Since I signed up for 4 hours of cheerleading, I think I will go do my housework now, and do my other two hours when everyone is falling asleep and I am wide awake. I am a night owl.
