Readathon: Hour 24


End of Event Survey

Which hour was most daunting for you?
Hour 14. I crashed. Went for a power nap, which turned out to be a deep sleep for hours. Woke up at hour 23.

Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year?
I insist contemporary romance books are the best way to go. 

Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next season?
As I state every year (twice) this event is made of awesome. Keep the good work readathon people! The only thing that I skipped this time were the challenges. I haven't done any at all. The titles didn't seem intriguing. 

What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon?
The twitter feed was bat shit crazy good!

How many books did you read?
1 book + 

What were the names of the books you read?
It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover (367 pages)
Walk Of Shame by Lauren Layne (about 50 pages)

Total of: 417 freaking pages! 


Which book did you enjoy most?
The one that I actually managed to finish :D It Ends With Us was in intense read. I loved every second of it, but by all means, it was no light read.

How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time?
I love participating in this event! It's a blast everytime!

See you again in October 2017 lovely people!




Readathon: Hour 12 I am still standing

Mid-Event Survey

1. What are you reading right now?
Walk Of Shame by Lauren Layne 
2. How many books have you read so far?
The first book read! 367 pages done!
3. What book are you most looking forward to for the second half of the Read-a-thon?
I guess Walk Of Shame, as it's supposed to be light and funny!
4. Have you had many interruptions? How did you deal with those?
We went outside for a bit! Took my kindle with me! Switched my phone to silent mode and it's amazing how noone can bother you.
5. What surprises you most about the Read-a-thon, so far?

That my reading is going so slow! I have gone with contemporary romance and It Ends With Us was so intense that it still took a long time to finish it! And twitter! It's an awesome event and enjoying every moment of it!

Hope you're having an amazing read-a-thon! Don't fall asleep! Make yourself a coffee and most of all, happy reading! And thank you cheerleaders for cheering! This means so much! :)

4) Tell us a little something about yourself!
I moved to Brussels in October. I worked at the European Commission and now I am working in communications at the European Cyclists' Federation. Lots of social media stuff. So far so good and I really like in here. I love to read Adult and New adult books. I like Romance. Dystopia, contemporary, historical.. it has to have at least some romance in it and I am a happy girl!

5) If you participated in the last read-a-thon, what’s one thing you’ll do different today? If this is your first read-a-thon, what are you most looking forward to?
I've learnt that reading contemporary romance books is the best for this kind of events - it goes faster. And I'll try to check more blogs and meet new awesome bloggers :) Click the follow button straight away, cause if not, it's lost forever. Learnt the hard way!
