Ides of March, Spring Into a Good Book, and Pick Your Thon Wrap Up

I have been horrible at posting wrap up posts for readathons so I'm doing a combination wrap up for the readathons I participated in March. 


I read a total of 503 pages in 13 hours and 12 minutes in 7 days. This was by far my best readathon in a while. I finally found a book that I wanted to sit and read all day. I should have picked up a Kristin Hannah book sooner. I think I finally got out of my reading slump. I read an average of 71 pages per day and an average of 1 hour and 53 minutes per day so just round it up to 2 hours. I think that is fantastic progress. I'm so happy for The Book Monsters for hosting this readathon. 
Finished:
I finished the last bit of How to Love by Katie Cotugno during this readathon and started and finished True Colors by Kristin Hannah
Started:
I started the first bit of Four Friends by Robyn Carr the last night of the readathon
I read a total of 267 pages in 4 hours and 49 minutes in 7 days. That is an average of 38 pages per day and about 41 minutes. It wasn't the greatest readathon, but I did manage to make progress while completing my homework. I think I was in kind of a mini reading slump at this time. 
Finished:
I finished the last bit of Charlotte's Web by E.B. White

Started:
I started How to Love by Katie Cotugno and fell in love right away. 
I read 453 pages in 9 hours and 39 minutes in 5 days. This was at the tail end of my spring break so I was reading as much as possible before returning back to school. That is about 90 pages per day and 1 hour and 55 minutes per day.  

Finished:
I finished the tail end of 6 Rainier Drive by Debbie Macomber while watching High School state girls basketball with my dad and started Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell the following day. 
Started:

After finishing Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell I jumped into Charlotte's Web by E.B. White and I have slowly been working my way Through a Tangled Wood by various authors on my computer. I'm still reading this one.
