Dewey's 24 hour Read-a-Thon April updates!

This is where I will post updates of my Read-a-Thon.


The first book I will be reading is Bakuman Volume 14
I just finished my first book at about 10:50pm

Next up is Bakuman Volume 15

Seeing as it was nearly midnight I decided to go to bed





I only ended up finished Bakuman Volume 14 and 15, and reading most of the first Harry Potter book

Open Meme for the April 24 hour Read-a-Thon

1) What fine part of the world are you reading from today?
I'm from Australia

2) Which book in your stack are you most looking forward to?
I'm looking forward to reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone the most. I want to get though a fair bit of the manga in my TBR bookcase (yes I have a bookcase for my TBR pile. Keep in mind though it is only a very small one), but in the past couple of weeks I have had a inkling for some Harry Potter.

3) Which snack are you most looking forward to?
I haven't actually got any snacks planned! I probably should have thought of that. I will probably just see what there is to eat when I get hungry.

4) Tell us a little something about yourself!
I love reading and Pokemon and I have loved them both since I was a little girl. To the point where one of the earliest memories I have of my dad is him reading me a Pokemon book before I went to bed. Not much has changed since then, I still love reading and I still love Pokemon.

Besides for that I like to play video games, read manga, watch anime as well as cosplay (I try to make most of my cosplays) and Lolita fashion.

5) If you participated in the last read-a-thon, what's one thing you'll do different today? If this is your first read-a-thon, what are you most looking forward to?
this is my first read-a-thon, so I don't really know what to expect. Like I said before, I really want to a few of my manga read, but I'm also looking forward to extra motivation to read, or at lest I hope there will be.

Dewey's 24 hour Read-a-Thon TBR

With the read-a-thon starting tomorrow, I thought I would post the list of books I hope to read over the 24 hour period. I have a few thicker books on my TBR list, but in the hope of reading more books this challenge I will stick to thinner books. 


Last July I brought the complete Bakuman series, and the first ten Naruto volumes, which while I have started I am yet to finish. I would like to finish reading one and read one or two of the other. My main focus will be those two.

To mix things up, I will have the choice of The Maze Runner, the first Harry Potter book, the ninth Ranger's Apprentice book, book five of Brotherband or a choice of one of the books off my Kindle.

Sims 4: 5000 Simoleons Challenge

In this challenge you start off with 5000 Simoleons to spend on whatever your Sims heart desire. This includes the lot, so choose carefully.


Rules
1. Only 5000 Simoleons to be spent on buying a lot and building a house. Any extra money is to be made to disappear. (Tip: this can be done by buying items, switching to live mode and straight back to buy mode, sell items, and repeat until extra money is all gone.)
2. Maximum of two Sims to start off with.
3. While your Sims are allowed to marry other Sims in the Neighbourhood, any Simoleons they bring into the family is unable to be use.
4. No Cheats
5. While you are allowed to move lots, you can only move to empty lots.


How to beat this Challenge
1. House worth over 250,000






This is a challenge I have thought up to add a new challenge to my Sims game. I am planning on filming some of it and uploading it to YouTube.

Edit: The first video is up and can be found here
