1. Which hour was most daunting for you?
probably my last - I read the same page over and over and still didn't know what it said. That is when I decided to go to bed.
2. Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year?
I think it definitely depends on the reader, but I love Richard Peck's Grandma Dowdel books: A Long Way From Chicago A Year Down Yonderand A Season of Gifts. They are short and packed with hilarious stories that should keep you reading.
3. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year?
I wish the posts on the read-a-thon site had times attached - sometimes I forget what hour it is or how long I can participate in a mini-challenge. Also some mini-challenges didn't have end times and that was a bit confusing.
4. What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon?
There was a lot of stuff going on to help you if you needed a break - blogs to visit, mini-challenges, etc.
5. How many books did you read?
Two full books, finished two books I'd already started, and then started two new ones. (~5)
6. What were the names of the books you read?
Daylight Runner, Betsy-Tacy and Tib, The Name of This Book is Secret, Between Me and the River, A Season of Gifts, and Artemis Fowl
7. Which book did you enjoy most?
The Name of This Book is Secret
8. Which did you enjoy least?
I didn't get a lot out of Artemis Fowl while I was listening, but I think I will enjoy it more when I listen to it with less distraction.
10. How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time?
I think I'd like to participate again - maybe not both in April and October though. Definitely a reader. And maybe a part-time cheerleader.
