Readathon End of Event


  1. Which hour was most daunting for you? Hour 24 by far. I had a horrible time trying to stay awake.

  2. Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year? Night by Elie Wiesel was probably the best book I read during the last 24 hours, but it is a pretty heartbreaking story.

  3. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year? Nope. The organizers do a fabulous job of putting on the readathon.

  4. What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon? Once again, the cheerleaders were awesome!

  5. How many books did you read? 3 unfinished + 5 finished.

  6. What were the names of the books you read?

    1. The Number Devil

    2. The Greatest Show On Earth

    3. Black Dogs

    4. The Pink Institution (finished)

    5. Koula (finished)

    6. The Moon Opera (finished)

    7. Disquiet (finished)

    8. Night (finished)



  7. Which book did you enjoy most? Night

  8. Which did you enjoy least? The Pink Institution

  9. If you were a Cheerleader, do you have any advice for next year’s Cheerleaders? I wasn't a cheerleader.

  10. How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time? Are you kidding? I'm definitely going to do this next time too.
