Readathon October 2010 - Kickoff Post

Good morning! I start the October ReadAThon at 8 am - only 45 minutes away! I'm infusing my body with coffee and cereal to help me make it through at least my first book.  I'll be reading and cleaning today with a short trip to the bookstore, the library sales, and possibly the library. 

Here are some of the books I want to tackle:

• Shakespeare Makes the Playoffs
• The Familiars
• Heart of a Samurai - Mock Newbery
• Reckless
• Lulu and the Brontasaurus
• The War to End All Wars - Mock Newbery

It seems like a good mix of contemporary realistic, fantasy and historical fiction. 

Here's how my posts should look:

I'll be cheerleading too! So look for me around the blogosphere and on twitter at http://twitter.com/thebrainlair.  I'll update after each book or every 3 or so hours whichever comes first.

Happy Reading!
