Next I am going to read The Invention of Hugo Cabret by Brian Selznick! It looks so good. I have been trying o keep my hands off of it without a ton of luck. I love charcoal drawings :)
I need to go get some food now. And yes, I have busted out the chocolate and black licorice now. It is so hard to be inside right now when the sun is shining, keep in mind that I live in Oregon where the sun shines twice year.

Look at all that charity money!! That's awesome :D
YOU are a superhero!! :) And I love black licorice also--glad to find another person on this planet who does too.
Great job, Bethany. Hope you mlike "Hugo"!
Awesome job, Bethany! Take a walk and enjoy the sunshine and feel refreshed for more reading!
The Hugo Cabret pictures are gorgeous, I have had it here to read for ages but still not got around to it.
I have used it at school though - a fantastic way to get non-readers interested in a book
Hugo Cabret is a great and fast read!Keep it up!

I hope you are able to read outside and enjoy that sunshine! I'm not so much a fan of black licorice, but I love chocolate!
The best part is the money you're raising for charity. You rock!
You are doing AMAZING!! I'm not reading this year - just cheering - it's my first time to participate, so I thought I'd start out slow. But now I've been cheering for 4 hours, and it's been fun! Maybe next time...
But anyway - keep it up!!
You're doing awesome but then you always do-you did last year too. You must have great focus. Wow on the amount you've raised for charity already. I'll be donating whether I read as much as I should have either way. Anyhow, keep it up!
Awesome!
I hope you enjoy Hugo Cabret as much as I did!
You are doing a great job! I love Hugo Cabret. I read it back when it first came out, so it's been a while! Maybe I should reread...
That's great! Keep having fun :)
Hope you're enjoying the sunshine! We had a beautiful sunny day here too, it was nice to feel the sun after such a long winter. Have fun with Hugo and enjoy your licorice :)
Love that Peter Pan cover, so pretty.
Check you out!! Great job :o)
Great books out there! Wow!
Great job, Bethany! You have been reading some great-sounding books, too! Happy reading. :)
Wow, you're doing really well! And I love how much money you've raised for your charity ... woo hoo!
The cover on Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress, is wonderful.
Hope that's a good read for you..
