hey guys it's Jade so the 24 in 48 hour readathon is about to start it is 10:18
p.m. my time and it starts at midnight Eastern time which is 11 p.m. so I'm
gonna start reading at 11:00 I think I wasn't sure I was gonna start at 11:00
or if I was going to wait till the morning but I'm wide awake and I feel like I can
do this so I'm gonna start reading at 11:00 I'm going to be reading knife of
dreams right here this is the wotalong or wheel of time read along book for January
and our live show for it is next Saturday February 2nd so I need to
finish this book by then but I also don't want it to be the only book that
I'm reading during the read-a-thon I mean 24 hours of reading one book I feel
like can probably get a little monotonous and boring so I have two
other books that I am trying to pick between as my secondary book for the
read-a-thon I put a poll up on Twitter and on Instagram those two books I'm not
gonna grab them because my battery is about to die but they are this cruel
design by Emily suvada which is the second book in the this mortal coil
series which this mortal coil was like my favorite book of 2017 and then also I
have into the bright unknown by Rae Carson which is the third and final book
in the gold seers trilogy which I have loved that trilogy so far so I'm not
sure which one of those two I'm going to be reading as of this moment this mortal
coil or this cruel design is winning but we'll see what it looks like in the
morning I also bought a puzzle I'll show it to you tomorrow but I'm really
excited to be working on a puzzle I bought it specifically for the
read-a-thon and it's been a really long time since I've done a puzzle like over
six months so I am super stoked about that anyways I just want to do a really
quick intro into the read-a-thon sorry I'm talking so quickly but my camera
battery is blinking at me and I don't want it to die and before I'm done
good morning so it is about 8:30 or so in the morning I wasn't planning on
being up this early but my husband Justin had to leave the house at like
8:00 I started hope I could sleep afterwards
but it's not happening I'm not falling back asleep
the dogs keep licking me and well now they're being super cuddly and cute can
you see there's one there's two anyways update on reading so after I film that clip I
started getting ready for bed and I remembered that I actually needed to
finish up on a video I had scheduled it to post but I actually hadn't like made
the thumbnail or filled out the description so I had to do that before
I could start reading but I was able to start reading around 11:30 and I got a
whole hour of reading in before I fell asleep so that's exciting one hour out
of the 24 is done and now I'm trying to decide since apparently I'm not gonna be
able to fall back asleep if I am gonna read in bed for a little bit longer or
if I should get up and make some coffee and some breakfast and go read out like
on the couch or somewhere else that's not my bed yeah that's my update on my
reading from last night and I will check out if you guys soon hey guys so it is
much like having the day it is 4:43 p.m. Wow today just flew by I know I haven't
filmed any clips since this morning I did read more this morning for like a
little over an hour so what my timer is up to I'm currently at two hours and
twelve minutes of reading which is not exactly where I would have wanted to be
but I knew that I had a busy morning or afternoon today because today was the
first day that me and the other world hoppers crew got together and filmed a
couple videos for our world hoppers channel that took like almost three
hours it was so much fun I'm really excited about those videos coming out so
we finished that a little while ago and then I actually had to ride it to the
store to get another memory card because I'm just in the middle of filming so
many videos right now that my memory cards are filling up so I needed a new
one one unexpected result from filming the world hoppers thing earlier today is
that we talked for like two and a half hours
my throat a little bit sore so I think I'm gonna go and switch up and read a
different book because so far I've been reading the knife of dreams just
finished chapter four I'm on page 158 something that's kind of slowing me down
with this book a little bit is that I'm doing something a little bit new with my
book Diaries and I'm filming a book diary clip every two chapters or so I
need to film the clip for chapters 3 & 4 but like I said my throat kind of hurts
and I'm kind of just like tired of talking at the camera right now so I
think I'm gonna switch it up and read a different book I think I mentioned this
last night but I put a poll up on Twitter and Instagram
between these two books I was trying to side between this cruel design and into
the bright unknown which are both sequels to series that I'm currently
reading and loving last night when I went to bed this one was actually
winning so I thought this was gonna be the book that I was in to read but as of
today this one is winning so I think I'm going to go and sit on the couch and
read this for a little while Justin is starting to cook dinner so we're gonna
eat soon maybe not soon it's gonna take a couple hours I think because he's
making a roast chicken which is really yummy so that's my plan I'm gonna take a
break from knife of dreams right now and go read this on the couch for a little bit
and I'll check in with you guys later
hello so it is almost 9 o'clock which is terrible I have not gotten as much
reading done as I wanted to let me see I'm at 4 hours of reading today that's
so bad but I haven't given up hope I plan to stay up quite a bit later in
fact I went and got myself some coffee from Starbucks and I actually have quite
the funny story about the adventure of getting this coffee before I left to go
get this I had been laying on the couch reading I was actually reading this and I got
to chapter 6 page page 70 so i read 70 pages in this and I was like starting to
kind of fall asleep and I was like okay I need to go get me some Starbucks to
help me wake up I get there and I order I'm in the drive-through get to the
window and I realized that I completely forgot my wallet I have no way to pay
for it so I tell the lady at the window I'm really sorry I'll be right back I
live like 10 minutes away and I'm like totally embarrassed about this so I went
home got my wallet went back to the Starbucks got back in line ordered again
and as I'm coming up to the window a light bulb goes off in my head because I
had my phone with me when I went and I realized that I have the Starbucks app
on my phone I've only used it a couple times this is why it didn't occur to me
but my Starbucks app is linked to my credit card like I can charge it up
whenever I wanted to so I totally could have paid for my coffee the first time I
was there so I had this whole ordeal I went to Starbucks twice when I didn't
have to and I had to go through the embarrassment of telling her that I
didn't have my wallet when I could have just paid for it on my phone and I just
felt so silly so getting this coffee was quite the saga I came home I ate dinner
I read a little bit more in knife of dreams and now I'm on page 174 in that
book what I'm gonna do now is I'm going to work on my puzzle and listen to more
of knife of dreams I started a little bit of sorting over
there I guess I can show you there's not really that much to see so this is what
I've done so far not very much I just need to keep sorting and
start with all of the end pieces and I'm gonna put on knife of dreams on audio
while I do this and I will check in with you guys in a little bit
hey guys so it's starting to get late at least for me it is currently 1118 I'm
not doing great as far as reading time let's see
I meant 5 hours and 25 minutes so I am steadily losing hope that I'm gonna be
able to make it to 24 hours tomorrow but I still want to read as much as I can
before 11 p.m. just to see how far I can make it but I'm gonna have to change my
game plan a little bit so up until now I have been reading knife of dreams so I
just finished chapter 8 not page 222 so this far so far and I'm really enjoying
this I'm really enjoying being back in this world but the reason why I'm I've
changed can't see my face the reason why I'm have to change my game plan is just
because I'm trying to record my book diary at the same time as while I'm
reading it and I'm having a lot of fun doing that and I like doing it so
immediately but it's really slowing me down as far as my reading time so I
think I'm gonna have to stop reading knife of Dreams at least until after the
read-a-thon is over which is just another day here's
where I kind of run into an issue the other book that I'm reading and I
already started like I said I got 70 pages into hold on I got 70 pages already into
into the bright unknown and this is the book that I did a poll for and one my
poll by like 60% to 40% and that's why I started reading this but the problem is
that I can't get this book on audio right now so I think I'm actually going
to stop reading this because listening to an audiobook is what's really going
to help me get through the rest of this read-a-thon what I do have access on
audio to is this this mortal coil so even though this book didn't win the
poll and everything I still I really want to read it and I plan on reading it
eventually anyways and I can get it on audiobook and I can listen to it and not
have to stop every two chapters to talk to a camera I think this is my new game
plan i'm gonna switch and start listening to this and see how far I can get and I'm
gonna keep working on my puzzle which is coming along let me show you
this is what the puzzle looks like so far I've got the outside done and I
started with yellows and now I'm gonna I think go with some reds I'm gonna have
to sort through and find a bunch of Reds let me remind you what the picture looks
like so I'm either gonna start with the Reds next or I might do some of the dark
blues like the indigo color that was like over here that might be what I do
next because the rest of it like this area over here that it's like
multiple colors together is actually gonna be pretty hard to do I think so
I'm gonna switch to this cruel design audiobook and I'm gonna stay up as late
as I can and I think doing this puzzle is gonna like help me stay awake my
coffee is gone I drank it all so that's gonna help me stay awake but also
staying like upright and actively working on a puzzle versus like laying
in my bed and reading and even though I hardly ever stay up past midnight I'm
just gonna see how long I can last and then hopefully I can still wake up
decently early tomorrow and continue listening to my audiobook so that's my
current game plan I will check in with you later
hello so it's really late it is 3:24 am I literally cannot
remember the last time I was up this late before but I gave it my hardest
and I am now very tired I've just been listening to the audiobook of this cruel
design and working on the puzzle and I definitely think that coffee helped me
to stay awake I am on page 188 which is roughly halfway through the book and
it's really good so far I like it it's very sciencey very genetics and coding
heavy and I love both of those things I fell in love with this world when I read
the first book and I still love this world and I think it's fascinating so
it's been a lot of fun so far I have done the math and there's pretty much no
way for me to make it 24 hours within the weekend the only way I could do it
is if I only slept for 4 hours and I read the rest of the hours and I'm awake
tomorrow which I that's not gonna happen I think in the very least maybe my new
goal is going to be finishing this book since I'm already half way through it
and that only took I don't know roughly 6 hours of audio I think yeah this
audiobook is 12 and a half hours total I definitely should be able to finish this
book tomorrow so that's gonna be my minimum goal it's just to finish that
book the reading 24 hours in one weekend is a lot harder than I thought I mean I
knew it was gonna be hard but it was like even harder than I thought oh I
don't think I said how many hours I've read it's 9 hours something 9 hours and
23 minutes so far I guess I can show you what I've done on the puzzle I've made a
lot of progress I'd say I am about 35% done with the puzzle
but I'm gonna have to look at it with fresh eyes tomorrow because my brain is
dead right now and I'm so tired alright this is what I've got so far so I did
tackle this red part next but what I didn't really think about is there is
some red up here so I ended up pulling those pieces out even
though it was kind of hard to put them together so they're just kind of in a
jumble and then after that I went for the Blues over here and I got the face
done which is awesome and then I focused on this corner down here I've got a lot
of that down got these butterflies done and then I started working on the green
part right here but that's when I started getting really sleepy so that's
where I'm gonna end it tomorrow I'll continue with the green
and then I think I might actually skip over and work on where's my finger on
like the black area here and then work this way next but we'll see and I will
update you tomorrow on the puzzle even though I'm not gonna reach that 24-hour
goal that I had and I'm sad about it I'm still really happy with the amount of
reading that I'm getting done and I was really looking forward to working on
this puzzle so I've been having fun with that but now I'm gonna go to bed
because I'm really tired I'm gonna try to wake up at like a normal time and not
sleep in late but we'll see how that goes
my back is killing me from sitting here and working on this puzzle for so long
all right time for me to go to bed I will talk to you tomorrow bye hello guys
so it is Sunday and it's three o'clock I meant to do a check-in earlier because I
was awake earlier but I sound and look like this because I just woke up for an
amazing nap so I did wake up at like 10:00 this morning
and I was like okay I need to get up and read I did read for like an hour then I
was getting really sleepy and I just wasn't really feeling that great I've
always been the kind of person who needs like around eight or nine hours of sleep
to function and I was going on closer to 6:00 so I decided since I
wasn't going to be able to make 24 hours of reading anyways that I just needed to
do some self-care and take a nap I love taking naps and I haven't taken
one in a couple of weeks now so it felt really good to get in a nap and I feel
so much better and I'm ready to get back to reading so let me tell you how much
reading I've done so far I am just shy of 11 hours of
reading and now I'm back in my study and I'm about to start listening to my audio
book again and working on my puzzles some more so I will check in with you guys later
hey guys so it is about 7 o'clock and I thought I would check in with you
while I'm eating some rocky road ice cream which is one of my favorite
flavors since the last time I checked in I have read more I've been listening to
more of this cruel design I also took a shower and I ate an early dinner or a
linner as I like to call it because I didn't really eat lunch and that's why
now I'm having ice cream time wise as far as how long I've been reading I am
just short of thirteen and a half hours I know last night when I was going to
bed I said that my revised goal for the weekend was just going to be to finish
this cruel design I'm about 85% through let me show you I only have this much
left which is really exciting I've been doing it all on audiobook the narrator
is okay she's not my favorite narrator her voice acting is okay but some of the
voices that she uses for some of the other characters I don't exactly like
all of them the book itself though is so good it's just really action-packed and
full of plot twists and it's a lot of fun which is perfect for a book for a
read-a-thon so now that I'm almost done with that book I think I have a new
revised goal for the rest of this weekend which is just the rest of today
I think I'm gonna shoot for reading for 16 hours it's a lot less than 24
obviously but I think 16 hours in a weekend is pretty good because it's
basically like I treated reading like a full-time job
for the whole weekend you know 8 hours each day so that's gonna be my new goal
my puzzle is going really well I'm almost done I'll show it to you in just
a second all right let me show you the puzzle this is what it looks like right
now I've got pretty much the lady done and all the colorful parts on the bottom
like this pretty much all done and then like I
said last night I started working up in this corner because there's like these
they're like ocean waves almost and then birds up here and then I think I'm gonna
go back and focus on the red next I pulled out a bunch so I'm gonna do like
this part in this part next and then save this part for last because this
part down here it's like a really big peacock feather that has lots of
different colors and so it's a little bit challenging to identify when i'm
going through the pieces but yeah things are winding down and i'm really excited
and i will definitely show you what it looks like when I'm done all right guys
I will check in with you in a little bit
hey guys so it is 9:30 and I just finished my puzzle which is awesome I'm
so excited that I did that puzzle is gorgeous
I'm pretty sure I mentioned this but I got this puzzle because the blue girl on
the front reminds me of Sarai from strange the dreamer on the rating front
I've read for a little less than 15 hours at this point so just one more
hour to go for me to meet my new goal and it's only 9:30 so that's definitely
gonna happen tonight I did finish reading this cruel design a little while
ago maybe like 30 minutes ago it was so good the ending was crazy and most of
the twists and turns I didn't expect there was one that I sort of expected
but it still didn't quite go the way that I thought it would and just it was
so fun and I wasn't sure at first like as soon as I finished it if I was gonna
give it five stars even though that was my gut reaction but after I was sitting
on it for like 30 minutes I I'm I decided I was gonna give it five stars
January has been crazy this is my third five-star read and I still have to read
a Wheel of Time book granted I might finish it like on February 1st or
something maybe it'll go into February but I'm pretty sure that's also gonna be
five stars this month has just been a really good reading month I don't know
if I'm gonna be able to top it later this year so that is my update for now I
am now going back to reading a knife of dreams The Wheel of Time book and I'll
check in with you one last time after I've read for
another hour bye hello we have reached the end of the read-a-thon it's just a
few minutes before 11 p.m. my time which is midnight Eastern and the end of the
24 and 48 read-a-thon so for the last hour and a half or so I did a couple of
things while listening to some more of knife of dreams I painted my nails and I
painted them my favorite color of I was feeling like doing something a little
bit colorful I also worked on my bullet journal just mapping out my spreads for
February and doing a little bit of planning I didn't get everything for
February planned out but I'm tired and I and I am ready to call it a night so
during the read-a-thon I finished one whole book and that was this one this
cruel design by Emily suvada apparently I've
been saying that incorrectly because the audiobook narrator said her name this is
a ya science fiction book it's the second one in as I think it's gonna be a
trilogy but it's definitely more than just two books and I really enjoyed it
it's action-packed fast paced full of plot twists so much fun which is exactly
what I needed for a read-a-thon and I gave this five out of five stars I also
got like 20% into into the bright unknown by Rae Carson let's see I got to
page 70 and the only reason I stopped reading this was because I wanted to
listen to an audiobook to help with the read-a-thon so I am gonna continue to
read this now that the read-a-thon is over and then of course I was reading
knife of dreams this was supposed to be my primary book for the read-a-thon and
it ended up being more of my secondary book so I read this a little bit at the
beginning of the read-a-thon and a little bit at the end of the readathon
I made it to page 278 which I had started it I was a hundred pages into it before
the read-a-thon so I'm about this far into it so far it's been so much fun
getting back into this world even though this is technically your reread for me I
really don't remember the things that are happening in it so it's feels like
it fresh read and of course I have to mention that I did a whole puzzle this
weekend it's been a long time since I've done a puzzle at least six months the
puzzle I picked out is so pretty and I had a lot of fun with that
so the read-a-thon didn't quite go as I had originally planned the books that
I'd planned to read kind of got switched up a little bit and I thought I had set
myself up for success as far as being able to read 24 hours within the weekend
I didn't mention this in my opening clip because I forgot but I actually took
Friday the day before the read-a-thon started off of work because I was trying
to get a bunch of stuff done that I would typically do on the weekends like
editing and cleaning and things I definitely want to try again the next
time the 24 in 48 happens I think it only happens like twice a year but yeah
it's really challenging to read 24 hours in a weekend but I didn't do that badly
I ended up with total of 16 hours and 8 minutes so my
new revised goal had been 16 hours and I met that goal and I'm really proud of
myself I got a lot of reading that I read a whole book this weekend so all in
all I'm really happy with my weekend despite not reading for 24 hours and now
I am ready for bed I'm exhausted after all that reading I hope you guys had a
good time watching this vlog I apologize that I was in my office for so much of
it but this is where I was all weekend so what you saw is what I did if you
