Well it is has been a crazy two days. I am so glad that I participated in this read-a-thon! It was so much fun! I would love to do another one soon! I would like to thank http://www.squeakybooks.com/ for hosting this great read-a-thon! Here is my day 2 report:
Final reading update/stats!
- Total Books Read: 5.9 (I was soo close to finishing my 6th book, but I fell about 20 pages short when the finish timer sounded. So, close but no cigar. 5.9 makes me feel better than just 5 books lol)
- Total Pages Read: 1,853
- Books Read Since Last Update: .9 (technically it is 0, but it was oh-so-close to being done. I have finished it now but it was past the time for the challenge- bummer!)
- Pages Read since last update: 224
- Total time read: 18 hours
- How I’m currently feeling: A little bummed that I couldn’t get the 6th book in to meet my goal. I came pretty close tho! and I almost DOUBLED my reading pages goal! That’s pretty good. 🙂
- First of all, give us an end-of-read-a-thon status update. Books read, pages read, you know the drill! I read finished 5 books and almost finished a 6th one. I read 1,853 pages. The books that I read for this read-a-thon were not the ones that I said I would originally read. I had some picked out but I am more of a mood reader and I just grabbed books from my TBR pile that tickled my fancy at the time.
- Abandoned by Meg Cabot
- Give up the Ghost by Megan Crewe
- Paranormalcy by Kiersten White
- Tower of Parlen Min by Matt Xell
- Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by JK Rowling
- Midnight Alley by Rachel Caine(90% done)
- What is your favorite book you read during the read-a-thon? I loved Paranormalcy! I would say Harry Potter but I was re-reading that series so it was not a new favorite.
- Did you participate in any mini-challenges? Which ones? I participated in two mini-challenges today and all of the mini-challenges yesterday.
- Which mini-challenge was your favorite? I loved the create a sentence from book titles challenge!
- What has been your favorite thing about the read-a-thon?I loved talking to people that were also doing the read-a-thon, and going around to the different blogs when I took breaks. It was fun!
- Are you satisfied with how much reading you got done? Did you do more than you expected? Less?I could have read more if I didn’t have interruptions yesterday. Today was a great reading day for me though. I do wish I had finished midnight alley tonight though.
- What did you think of the updates? Too close together? Didn’t like the time limit?I thought the updates were good, but maybe stretch them out to just a few a day.
- If you could change one thing about the read-a-thon, what would it be? One or two less updates, so we have more reading time. Or maybe a twitter challenge would be fun!
- Would you participate in another read-a-thon hosted by Squeaky Books? Why or why not? I would love to participate in another read-a-thon. Name the day and time and I will be there!
- Any last comments on the read-a-thon? Thank you so much for hosting this! I loved it.
-Michelle
