A few days ago I decided to do my very own personal read-a-thon. Read my original post here. So yesterday I did it. I had the day off and I read my little heart out. Here is what went down.
THE DETAILS
Start: Sat. Oct. 24th at 9:00 amFinish: Sun. Oct 25th at 2:00 am
Total read-a-thon time: 17 hours
Time Actually Read: 10ish hours (I was curious so I actually timed this.) I could have read more but I had to eat, I was dog sitting, my new couch came, and I did want to spend dinner with my husband, but I still read a LOT!
Original Reading Goal: Two novels and Two Graphic Novels
Actual Books Read: Two Graphic Novels and One Novel (Which was longer than I thought, but really good.) Pictured Below (I enjoyed all three!)
Total Number of Pages Read: 801 pages
Would I do it again? Of course. Do I have any time in the near future to do so? Not really. :(
I hope all my lovely readers has a chance to do their very own personal readathon at some point! I know it is hard to find time, but it is worth it.
How I felt after the read-a-thon...
Awesome! I'm glad it worked out so well. I really am going to try to do a mini one of these sometime and read a whole book in a day (and not a super short one, which I tend to do!) -- that would be a BIG accomplishment for me :)
ReplyDeleteYou should! Any size read-a-thon is awesome. Basically all of us are so busy that setting aside time to read is sometimes hard, but an important thing to do. :D
DeleteWow! Awesome job! You got a lot read! :D
ReplyDeleteI did! I think it was as success. I shall have to do it again.
DeleteCongrats! You did really well during your readathon, I am rather proud. I need to make time for one of these myself, definitely could do with one.
ReplyDeleteIt is fun to put aside a day to just read! It's so hard to find time, but it will be worth it if you do. :)
DeleteOh maybe I should have read this post first lol.
ReplyDeletelol No worries. :) I really liked Six of Crows!!!! Review to come soon.
