Read-a-ton Prep

Oh, Boy...I can't believe it's been April since my last post...life just gets busy I guess. I am still reading but only about 1 book a month...more if I am lucky!

Big news - we are moving to Cincinnati - though not sure when. I am wondering if the name of my blog should change since the whole point of using Derby was that I am in Louisville, KY - home of the Kentucky Derby! ;) Not sure yet what Cincinnati is known for other than cinnamon in their Chili (not sure if I will try that one or not).

Today I am prepping for the read-a-thon by cleaning the house! Ha! I wanted to spend part of the day at Starbucks to make sure I got in a few hours of reading, but illness has gotten in the way of that dream. :) My 2 girls are sick so I will need to stick around the house. And you know they don't want to sleep more because they are sick...is that just an adult thing??

So I have my books ready...I am hoping to maybe finish 1! :)
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
Thorn in My Heart by Liz Curtis Higgs (on Kindle)
Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater
Impossible by Nancy Werlin
...and tons more in my book shelf! Plus I have a kindle so the whole books store is at my compulsive purchase! :)
