Welcome to Hour 18 of Dewey’s 24-Hour Read-a-thon! Give yourself a pat on the back, because you’ve done an awesome job making it this far. If you’re in the same time zone as me, it’s the hour of 11:00PM. You might be feeling pretty drowsy. In that case, I’m glad you decided to stop by here because my mini challenge features music. Take a moment to listen to a song or two, maybe get up and dance around a bit to keep awake!

So, what’s the challenge? In the comments below or in a tweet (tag @fallingletters and hashtag #readathon), share a song featured in a book you’ve read during the Read-a-thon. If your story doesn’t mention music, choose and explain why a song fits one of your reads. The first thing I read for the Read-a-thon this morning was the chapters of The Fellowship of the Ring that take place in Lothlórien. Here’s a one hour ambient mix that incorporates music from the films.

Enjoy your final hours of reading!
