So I’ve had a nap and some time for the insane amounts of caffeine to leave my brain… time for a Read-a-Thon wrap-up!
- Number of books read:
- 3
- Pages read
- 1,019
- Time spent reading
- 14 hour 50 min
- What did I do during the rest of the 24 hours?
- Mini-Challenges
- Read Fellow Reader’s Updates
- What was the best part of the read-a-thon?
- All the support! I NEVER expected to so much encouragement from friends and fellow book-lovers! It’s really what kept me going. I absolutely LOVE the book community online! What an amazing group of people!!
- What was the worst part of the read-a-thon?
- Getting up at 6 am…
- I have a hard time switching from one series to another. Letting go of the characters is very difficult and while I usually consider that a good thing, it turned out to be the toughest part of reading multiple books in one day.
- Will I do this again?
- YES
- What would I do differently?
- Go to bed earlier the night before!
- Start with some light (Harry Potter?) books.
- Make sure I have enough of one series to just read that later in the day.
I agree that the biggest problem I would also have in reading so many books close together is letting the characters go. When I finish a book it is very rare that I will start another one in the same day.. I like time to think about the characters and digest the story before I move on.
You must be exhausted! lol
You did an amazing job! And I am with you on going to bed earlier the night before. I foolishly thought I could go out Friday night and be fine waking up early Saturday.
