Which hour was most daunting for you?
Hour 16. I ended up taking a 4 hour nap about an hour later.
Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year?
Myth Conceptions by Robert Asprin is a quick fun fantasy novel that works well for readathon reading.
Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year?
Nope.
What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon?
Everything.
How many books did you read?
5
What were the names of the books you read?
Marvel's The Avengers Prelude: Fury's Big Week, A Call to Duty, Marvel's Iron Man 3 The Movie Prelude, Myth Conceptions and Marvel's the Avengers: Black Widow Strikes.
Which book did you enjoy most?
A Call to Duty by David Weber and Timothy Zahn
Which did you enjoy least?
Myth Conceptions by Robert Asprin. It was a good book and I enjoyed it but it is rather silly so I enjoyed it the least.
How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time?
I plan to participate as a reader.
Closing thoughts: I always enjoy the read-a-thon and this was no exception but it is the hardest one I've done. Things at home were still hugely confused because our water pump on our well had been out for 2 days so instead of preparing for the read-a-thon I was dealing with the plumber and living without running water. My brother and his SO were here because they wash their clothes here on Thursdays but we had no water on Thursday. I only had a couple of graphic novels to read so had to find books and there was nothing cooked to eat. On the whole being prepared and minimizing interruptions makes for a better readathon. However, life is what happens when you're busy making other plans. Hopefully the next one will go a little more smoothly!!
