Final Thoughts:

This was another successful readathon. I did an all audio event this time, and finished 6 total books. My goal was to complete 7, but I slept a little longer than intended in the middle. But it’s all good. I also ate some fun treats, tried a new-to-me drink and a new-to-me candy. I ate most of my snacks in the early part of the event and didn’t snack so much on the back end, I’m not really sure why, it just ended up that way. And I still have plenty of snacks left over for the week.
