End of Event Meme

1. Which hour was most daunting for you?
-Probably hour 23 (my hour 19[I think], 6am-7am)
2. Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year?
-Hitchhiker's guide to the Galaxy, if you're into that sort of thing.
3. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year?
-Perhaps organizing cheerleading a little better, but besides that I thought it ran pretty well from a reader perspective
4. What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon?
- I liked the fair range of mini-challenges, and change of R-a-t hosts every few hours. (although I don't know if they was any different from last time, as this was my first time...)
5. How many books did you read?
- 5 (but only finished 4)
6. What were the names of the books you read?
- House of Leaves, Hitchhiker's guide to the Galaxy, Looking for Alaska, Paper Towns, and Doppelganger
7. Which book did you enjoy most?
-I refuse to pick favourites.
8. Which did you enjoy least?
-Actually, I rather enjoyed all 5 of the books. (I only stopped reading HoL because it was too difficult a read for a thing like this)
9. If you were a Cheerleader, do you have any advice for next year’s Cheerleaders?
- I was not a Cheerleader, sorry.
10. How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time?
- Oh at least a 90% certainty! I really liked it. I'll probably take up the role of a reader again, but who knows maybe I'll step it up and become a cheerleader too.
