Title of book(s) read since last update:

• Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson (in progress)

Thoughts on current read:
This book is wonderful. I know there's a lot of thought I could put into it, but since I'm focusing on the Read-a-thon I'm just making mental notes of what to think about, and then I'll think a little deeper once the Read-a-thon is done!

Snacks!

1. Water for hydration.

2. Coke for flavor (it's always my drink of choice!)

3. Granola bars for a quick fix.

4. Sour cream and onion potato chips for the fun of it.

5. Cheese crackers for yumminess.

6. Apples for energy. Which I'm about to eat one now to get me through the rest of Wintergirls.

Things are going good so far, but I'm just waiting for a crash!
