#readathon Update 7: End of Event Meme, 8:30 a.m. (The End)
Which hour was most daunting for you?
I went to be during Hour 18, which was tough. I wanted to keep reading, but I was also exhausted!
Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year?
I don't think any of the three books I finished -- Hunting Season by Mirta Ojito, Truth and Beauty by Ann Patchett, An Exact Replica of a Figment of My Imagination by Elizabeth McCraken -- would really count. I liked them, but I'm weird.
Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year?
Nope. This was awesome.
What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon?
I liked the prize form, and I think the cheering went well.
How many books did you read?
Finished three, read parts of two others.
What were the names of the books you read?
Hunting Season by Mirta Ojito (finished), Truth and Beauty by Ann Patchett (finished), An Exact Replica of a Figment of My Imagination by Elizabeth McCraken (finished), The Thousand Dollar Tan Line by Rob Thomas and Jennifer Graham (in progress), Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin Sloan (in progress)
Which book did you enjoy most?
I was digging Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore, but then I fell asleep.
Which did you enjoy least?
None.
If you were a Cheerleader, do you have any advice for next year’s Cheerleaders?
N/A
How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time?
I'd love too. I hope I can try to cheer more, although just focusing on reading was also fun.
