1. Which hour was most daunting for you?
I went to be at Hour 18 when I was getting tired. I wish I had been awake a little longer.
2. Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year?
I don’t think either of the books I spent a lot of time with — Frozen in Time or World War Z — fit the bill. I liked both a lot, but they were slower reads.
3. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year?
Nope. Awesome as always.
4. What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon?
For me personally, I think doing Tumblr updates worked well. Between that an Instagram, I think I was able to do updates quickly and have a good record of my readathon. I’m curious what others thought though — how did you do your updates?
5. How many books did you read?
I read one, listened to part of one, and read part of another.
What were the names of the books you read?
Frozen in Time by Mitchell Zuckoff, Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins, and World War Z by Max Brooks (almost done).
6. Which book did you enjoy most?
Probably Frozen in Time.
7. Which did you enjoy least?
I couldn’t pick. I liked them all.
8. If you were a Cheerleader, do you have any advice for next year’s Cheerleaders?
N/A
9. How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time?
As long as the date works, 100 percent likely. I actually like the fall readathon better — when it’s just starting to get chilly out, I always feel like staying inside to read all day.
