Just 3 more days in both the Summer Wrap-up Read-a-thon and Random House of Canada's Olympic Readathon. On Wednesday, I completed The Mapping of Love and Death by Jacqueline Winspear. As I said before, I think this was the very best book in the series so far. I have the next book, A Lesson in Secrets with me and plan to read it next week. But, since I was waiting on my hubby to arrive with the dozen (or so) books I had packed into the car, I started reading Runner by Thomas Perry. I was able to find some time to read during all three meals and thus I wound up having read 149 pages during the day.
On Thursday, I set Runner aside and started reading A Call to Arms by Alan Dean Foster. I had chosen it as my one and only objective/goal for the Summer Wrap-Up Read-a-Thon. Thursday didn't offer as many opportunities to read, and although I thought I had read quite a bit, I was surprised to tally my page count at only 84 pages for the day. I've not had any time to read today (Friday), but since my vacation begins around 13:00 PDT, I'm going to be heads-down in a book for several hours as we travel from Anaheim to Lancaster.
