Read-a-Thon Update: Hour 9

It’s time for a (late) dinner and that makes it a great time for an update! I have finished three books so far:

  1. Shades of Milk and Honey by Mary Robinette Kowal
  2. Touching the Void by Joe Simpson
  3. Howl’s Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones

I loved Howl’s Moving Castle – it’s wonderful to have read two amazing books already today! I am definitely adding more Diana Wynne Jones to my next book order. It is a shame that I have now only discovered her after her passing, but I am glad to have a huge backlist to work through before I face the fact that there won’t be any more.

I have since started reading Lady Isabella’s Scandalous Marriage by Jennifer Ashley. It wasn’t in my pile, but I didn’t really want any more fantasy and my choices suddenly seemed too fantasy-heavy. This should be a nice break from that.

As for the stats, I have read for 6 1/2 hours so far and have finished 922 pages. I’m really pleased with that – I think I’m doing better than last time!

How is everyone else doing? Have you read anything amazing so far?
