We’re 50% complete with Dewey’s 24 hour readathon. Here are some highlights and stats.
So we're in separate rooms now because @tddewey, reading Douglas Adams, wants to read funny bits outloud. #readathon pic.twitter.com/h0YzYsiJDH

Kallen and Jason went for a run since they’re training for a half-marathon and I’m putting together our pizza dough since I’m not. So that, plus an hour or so off for lunch has set us back a bit. Once those night hours hit and the distractions melt away, we’ll ignite stage 2 propellant and hit the books hard!
What should we read next?
Kallen’s excited to dive into a few advanced review copies (ARCs) that she has. Taylor’s looking forward to reading Philip K. Dick’s famous Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep. We’re also asking for help choosing.
Okay, so seriously need help deciding what to read next. Vote? http://t.co/JNSg4Hca3S #readathon pic.twitter.com/1FKtlChQek
