I am so far having a great time, but found that my eyes weren't moving quickly in the begining, and my brain wasn't absorbing words. things are starting to pick up now. my most amusing moment from the last hour and a half was when DH started to tip over because he had fallen asleep. it might be a LOONNNGGGG 24 hours ;)

Good luck!!!
I know how you feel. I did not sleep good last night and I am dragging now. :)
i really enjoyed breaking dawn. i like it the best out of the series.
happy reading!
Aww bless that they nearly fell over! I hope you are enjoying Breaking Dawn, it divided a lot of fans but I loved it.
I hope you have a great day with the read-a-thon. I'm going out for a change of pace. My boyfriend needs to run to Wal-Mart, and I'm going to ride along and read in the car and grab some food to eat when I get back.
Have fun!
I hope you have fun reading :)
I hope you have fun with the read-a-thon! I'm going out with my boyfriend for a change of venue, and will read in the car while he is in the store.
Have fund and good luck with the challenges!
ah wow Breaking Dawn! One day I will have to finish that and not let what I've heard about it taint my perceptions...
Loved your coffee consumed & time slept tally's...might need to pilfer those for myself. lol
Good luck with your reading!
I love your update - especially cups of coffee consumed!
So what are you going to read next? I liked both Middlesex and Time Traveler's Wife.
I'm reading 84, Charing Cross Road and I ADORE it. I think any book lover will!
My eyes weren't cooperating right when I woke up, either! I'd given myself 15 minutes between the alarm and the start of the read-a-thon to get my brain adjusted, but it was still a slow start. Hope the rest of the day goes better!
awwww those darn slow eyes.
yay for breaking dawn.... crazyness huh?
Good luck! I myself have to have about at least 10 pages to read before things start to pick up. And I know, it's really going to be a long 24 hours. ;)
I'm not a morning person so reading this early for me is an adventure. Enjoy!
You're doing great! Keep up the good work.
You're doing good with time online. It is so easy to get sucked in!
Awwwww I love how you list your "coffees consumed"!
Good luck to you. I've managed so far without an caffeine--don't want to get jangly too early--but I think that's about to change.
Wow, way to start with a long book! Good luck completing Breaking Dawn. I don't think I could have chosen one with so many pages, so good for you!
What do you think of Breaking Dawn? Most people I talk to either love or hate it. It's def. not my fav. of the series
I'm so interested to know what you think about Breaking Dawn. And dadgum, that's a huge TBR pile!
Happy reading!!
The Twilight books are such compulsive reading, aren't they? I found Jacob's section in Breaking Dawn a bit too long actually but it picked up after that. Happy reading!
You are doing great! I need to get off the computer and get reading! Have a great day and I hope the read-a-thon experience is all you want it to be.

I like your stats - cups of coffee, minutes slept. Great fun. Keep reading.
Looks like we've read about the same amount in the same amount of time. Keep up the good work!
Hey Lissa! Congrats on reader of the hour! Breaking Dawn eh? I've read Twilight and really want to get to the rest!! One of these days.
Sometimes you just need a cat nap! LOL. Happy reading.
Great update! I'm matching you on the coffee - but that's my usual intake! Looks like you've got some great books on your list. Have fun today!
Hey, you're doing great! :D
I had a slow beginning, too, but as time goes it seems I read quicker! Maybe we just needed to wake up ;)
I had a few sleepy eyed moments similar to DH during the first 45 minutes or so of reading. Pepsi-fueled and into a very humorous book, I am feeling much more awake at present. I'm glad you have gotten into the groove and hope your day continues to be one that sees you alert and deeply engrossed in fantastic reading!!!
Good thing I am not keeping track of cups of coffee drunk! Too many to count!
Keep going!
Good luck!!
"coffees consumed" perfect!!! I think I need to add cups of tea to mine - congrats on beiong reader of the hour
I had trouble starting too! I don't usually read at this time of day.
Are you reading with your husband? Fun!
I was so nervous I wouldn't get any sleep last night, but I ended up having some great dreams that really calmed me down, lol.
Good luck with the reading, I'm concentrating on my knitting and thinking of doing some dying instead of reading today
24 hours will go faster than you think. Well, 20 of them will--the last four are brutal. :P Good luck!!
Woo-hoo, good job!
It seems to take a bit of time to get settled into reading for long periods of time. Good luck and happy reading!
I love the Twilight series. Sigh.
I just looked at your list of hopefuls and you have some real chunksters in there! YAY for getting the TBR pile down a bit!
I've been able to speed up m y eyes since wakilng up.
WOW you're doing great and I like the way you've listed everything. Hope you're having fun and good luck!
Keep it up baby, I'm proud of you DH :)
Good luck!
I wish I'd slept better last night, but a migraine kept me up. I'm making progress, though slow. Glad to see you're enjoying yourself!
You're doing great! The Twilight series was more addictive than crack for me. :)
I lurved the Twilight series!! Good luck and have fun.We have done 16 hours in Australia so starting to fade
