Hi it's Lexi, Lumbard the host of the at Lexi podcast and I'm in a chipper happy mood.

It is the first sunny day that we've had in three days

here in California, specifically in Los Angeles,

and I fell deep.

And I remember this being a complaint last time I lived in California where there

were too many sunny days in a row. God, what a champagne problem, but in New York, which is all I had to really compare it to, I guess Virginia, when there'd be a stormy day or a cloudy day or a rainy day, you had an excuse to be in a mood, and sometimes we're moody, we're moody creatures so having too many sunny days when your psyche was desiring to get into a home body couch potato hole, but you have gorgeous sunny weather surrounding your windows.

What are you supposed to do? Give in to the psyche or participate in the beautiful

world that's out there. So having three days in a row of gloom put me in quite the moody state also PMS and also reading the saddest of books which that's

today's topic reading and books. I have recently taken it upon myself to

participate in a 24-hour reading challenge.

And this is a popular challenge on YouTube

within the Book Tube community.

And there's two ways that people have gone about it.

One is setting a timer for 24 hours and reading consecutively

or keeping track of your reading and document

24 hours worth of time spent reading, which is what I opted for.

The first option seems, first of all, undesirable, but second of all, with no fulfillment towards the end

whereas I'm currently one-third of the way through this 24-hour challenge and I am

already discovering elements about myself and about reading that I didn't know prior.

You'll have to watch the video to figure out the rest.

Yeah, I'm eight hours in of the 24 hour challenge.

So I only spent eight hours this weekend reading,
