Read-a-Thon Hours 23 and 24: 5:00 - 7:00

What are you reading right now? Summer of My Amazing Luck by Miriam Toews

How's that going? I only have 5 pages left! But I'm going to bed and finishing it later in the day.

Books finished so far: The Underground (Animorphs #17) by K.A. Applegate, Namesake by Sue MacLeod, Away Laughing on a Fast Camel (Confessions of Georgia Nicolson #5) by Louise Rennison, Serenity: Those Left Behind by Joss Whedon, et. al.

Pages read these hours: 65

Total pages read so far: 970

Food consumed this hour: None.

Aaaand, I'm too sleepy to even create another post, so here's the End of Event Meme tacked onto this one:
  1. Which hour was most daunting for you? The earliest ones, for sure. Maybe 1 through 4.
  2. Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year? My usual suggestions: Animorphs books and the Confessions of Georgia Nicolson.
  3. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year? Nope, I'm quite happy with it!
  4. What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon? I love the new site design and all the hype before the event!
  5. How many books did you read? I was just 5 pages away from finishing my 5th book.
  6. What were the names of the books you read?
    1. The Underground (Animorphs #17) by K.A. Applegate
    2. Namesake by Sue MacLeod
    3. Away Laughing on a Fast Camel (Confessions of Georgia Nicolson #5) by Louise Rennison
    4. Serenity: Those Left Behind by Joss Whedon, et. al.
    5. Summer of My Amazing Luck by Miriam Toews (minus 5 pages)
  7. Which book did you enjoy most? Honestly, they were all great! I couldn't pick a favourite.
  8. Which did you enjoy least? See previous answer.
  9. If you were a Cheerleader, do you have any advice for next year’s Cheerleaders? I wasn't a Cheerleader. I appreciated the cheers, though!
  10. How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time? As always, I'll be a reader.
