It's over! Another great Read-a-Thon (and I even came back for Hour 24)!
Since last update:
Bleachers - 42 pgs
Final total, pages: 517
Final total, hours: 10hr, 15min
Books read: V is for Vengeance by Sue Grafton - Finished
Bleachers by John Grisham - 72 pages
The Bungalow Mystery by Carolyn Keene - 10 pages
I would like to have read more pages and hours, but I'm pretty happy considering I got very little sleep the night before. I'll do better next time. Most importantly, I had lots of fun!

- Which hour was most daunting for you? That would have to be Hour 20 1/2 to Hour 23 - I slept!
- Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year? Mysteries work well for me, because they hold my interest.
- Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year? It was cool that we entered the books we read into a Database, but I didn't understand how we could actually see the list.
- What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon? It was all good!
- How many books did you read? 1 and part of 2 others
- What were the names of the books you read? V is for Vengeance, Bleachers (partial) and The Bungalow Mystery (partial)
- Which book did you enjoy most? V is for Vengeance
- Which did you enjoy least? I'm halfway through Bleachers - it's o.k, but I'm not loving it
- If you were a Cheerleader, do you have any advice for next year’s Cheerleaders? Nope
- How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time? VERY likely. Mostly a reader, but also some cheering.
