🍁 Fall Equinox 24-hour Readathon

スーパーの裏でヤニ吸うふたり volume 4: 0 → 110

Brain is entering turn off mode, and just about on time :laughing: Starting to get to the chapters I haven’t read before, and the volume releases include some side story chapters that I really like

+ 110 pages, + 1 hour(Total: 860 pages, 16k, 9:00)

and with that, I’ve finished all my goals for the challenge!


Read More than I did last time (8:30)
Reread some stuff for my 2 year reading streak anniversary
Finish some straggler volumes from my physical 積読 stack
Literally open and read any bit of コンビニ人間

Here’s the final count:

Book Time Pages Chars Finished
新完全マスター 0:10 :x:

スーパーの裏でヤニ吸うふたり 4 (26) 1:00 110 :x:
Total: 9:00 860 16000 6 :white_check_mark: / 9

Not bad! I think overall I read at a slower pace for most of these things than I did during the last challenge, but that’s ok. Read just about as much text stuff, and a tiny bit more manga than last time, but also read from a larger number of sources!

Overall, it was a lot of fun to do this again, and I look forward to seeing the rest of the weekend readers progress :grin:

My first hour completed! I finished chapters 28 through 33 of Naruto which brings me to the end of the first arc. It was the one arc I’d never watched/read before so it was entirely a surprise and I definitely shed some tears :smiling_face_with_tear:

I’m gonna grab some breakfast/brunch before starting on my next hour :green_salad: I don’t think I’ll be continuing Vol. 4 of Naruto right away since starting a new arc feels just as big as starting a new volume imo. I think I’ll switch to another series for my next session :raised_hands:

+1hr, 84 pages
My total: 1hr, 84 pages


:tada::mirror_ball::partying_face: 流石javerendさん!! Amazing stats, and from so many different series! It’s always fun reading alongside you, thank you for joining ^^

Finished ゆるキャン△ and then got hangry so retreated back home. After acquiring food I’ve started ヒナのままじゃだめですか. My eyes are getting droopy though, might be time for bed soon.

A short session before I tend to a few home things for a bit. I switched over to とんがり帽子のアトリエ 4 because I am deeply behind in the book club woozy The amount of text is similar to my last read but the difficulty is increased, so I haven’t been as fast this time around. I’ll return soon! :saluting_face:

+37mins, 45 pages
My total: 1hr 37mins, 129 pages


EDIT: we are doing extremely well on these goals!!! :dancing_men:

Here we go, my first update! :durtle_the_explorer:
Started reading today Saturday 18:00. It’s currently almost exactly 22:00.

So far I’ve read for a duration of 3h 10 min. In those 3 hours I’ve read 32.5k characters of the novel 本好きの下剋上 25. I thought I was going to be way more tired in the early evening since that has been the case earlier this week, but I guess the challenge lit a fire in me :fire:

I’ll be going to sleep soon and will continue reading more tomorrow. I’m already past halfway through my goals, so there should be no problem if I sleep in, haha :ok_hand:

My brain is starting to overheat a bit, so I’m going for a walk to give it a chance to cool down! :face_with_spiral_eyes: I was able to speed up slightly, though - 3 more chapters of コナン read, 50 pages in 1h 35 minutes, for a total of 90 pages in 3h 20m so far today. I’m really enjoying this challenge! :grin:

I’m also at this point :handshake: You’ve reached 3 hours, too!! I’m so amazed :star_struck:

Well good news! It cooled off here for a few days and won’t even break 70F today. I’ve been out on my patio most of the morning, there’s a refreshing breeze, it’s great. I’ve even got some spiced apple cider.

I’m taking a short break every hour or so to get up and take a walk, do my various lessons, etc. I started at 0830 and have read for 3hr45min and 17,818 characters. 転スラ why so much unknown vocab :sob: If I can make it to 9 hrs though I’ll’ve read almost 43000 characters and be close to the end of volume 1.

Okay, I guess I’ll start today after all, I want to join in on the fun! My main day will be tomorrow, but the total period will be Saturday 22:40 - Sunday 22:40. My home post is updated with my starting stats already so I’ll get right into the first reading session as soon as I post this. My first read will be the second to last short story from 虚像の道化師. :sparkles:

I didn’t see this post appear and now I feel like I missed all the fun :cry:
Somehow I had this memory that most people would do their 24 hrs on Sunday so I moved my schedule around to do them tomorrow, too :see_no_evil:

Lately, I haven’t been able to do any reading towards any book club, so I want to work on that.

My goals are, with ascending difficulty:

read
read 20 pages
read 4 hrs
finish 京都寺町三条のホームズ 1 (final boss)

I’ll try to track both pages and time.

Welp, things got in the way and I didn’t end up having nearly as much time to read as I wanted, my “comfy binge reading day” plans didn’t quite work out :melting_face:
But it’s okay, I still read more than I usually do these days :laughing:

Most people voted for Sunday, so not only will there be more participants but there are also some joining the challenge on Monday, too ^^ You definitely haven’t missed the fun! I’m also very intrigued by the way you did your timestamps to show your schedule in everyone’s local time :eyes: I need to learn how to do that…

24.5k in 2.5 hours!! :astonished: Congrats on such a great report :tada::books: Thank you for reading with me!
