First up, 24in48
Here are my answers to the closing survey:
1. How many books did you read? Pages? 2 graphic novels (The Son of Neptune and The Complete Persepolis) and one category romance (A Sultry Love Song) from start to finish. 31% of one category romance (TGTGCG).
Page wise I read 723 pages.
2. How many hours did you read? 12 hours over the two days, with the bulk being read on Saturday. After doing some math, it averages 60.25 pages per hour; now I can use that bit of datum to plan out future reading.
3. What do you think worked well in this read-a-thon?
The weather made it clear to all the family that going outside and doing something other than reading was a no-go. Thank you rainy England! Please stop raining now, kthanksbye. Also my food game was great this time around; I must order take away from my favorite kebab place for all read-a-thons.
Reading wise, what worked well was reading shorter books and in print (I read faster in print over e-books for some strange reason).
4. What do you think could be done to improve the readathon for next time?
I should maybe check in every two hours rather than every 3-4 hours, as I missed a bunch of participation challenges. To improve the read-a-thon in general, new challenges - I am tired of the "take a shelfie" and the "make a verse with book titles" challenges as every read-a-thon does those challenges.
5. Will you participate in a future 24in48 readathon? Yep, and it's on my calendar already.
