I'm reading Devs out loud right now, trying to hone my sentences. It's completely exhausting, and it's taking much longer than I expected. So if I'm sparse on the blog this week, it's because I'm reading 'til my eyes bleed.
And yes, it's worth it. I've made so many tiny changes that I never would have caught otherwise, and the book is all the better for it.
Here's my favorite line of the day:
Lainey glared at him. "You’re better than this, Quinn."
"Maybe I am," he said. "But maybe, to make the world safe, I have to be worse than I am."

In a sense you can't put in too much work now. Just think of how wonderful it will be to know you went over the limits of endurance in the pursuit!
Oh wow! That's a great line. Once I get edits back from my crit partners I really am going to consider doing this.
Good luck with the read through. I like your fav. line of the day. :)
Good luck!! What a great idea, to read it out loud. Most likely going to do that when I'm done with the first round of revisions!
Ohh, I love that line :)
That is a good line. I have never tried reading aloud. The thought makes me break out in a cold sweat! It sounds like a good plan, though.
I love that line!
Great going! I know you have the stylish blogger award already, but I just left you another one :D
Loved your blogfest, it was totally awesome, and very, very informative.
