Reverse Readathon: Closing Survey

The Reverse Readathon is officially over… we’re still reading, though. (Which is why I kind of like reverse readathon more than regular readathon. I can squeeze a few more hours in a lot easier than I can on a normal readathon schedule.) I was too tired to think about the mid-event survey so let’s just jump right into the closing survey.

1)How would you assess your reading overall?

Well… considering I had to deal with a sick dog for quite a long time last night which caused me to need a very long nap around mid-day … not too bad. It turned out to be a bit of an LGBTQ sort of readathon. I read the last 100 pages of “The Perfect Crimes of Marian Hayes”, the entire book “Count Your Lucky Stars”, and I’m almost 100 pages into “If You Could Be Mine”. On the non-LGBTQ front (though really, it wouldn’t be shocking if at least one of these characters was a lesbian… spinsters and all that…) I’ve read another 125 pages of “The Siren of Sussex”.

2)Did you have a strategy, and if so, did you stick to it?

I had no strategy, as indicated by the fact that I totally forgot I had planned to read a Once Upon a Book Club book. Oh well… maybe I’ll read that when we go to the beach at the end of August. That might be fun?

3)What was your favorite snack?

Oddly, my favorite snack turned out to be some pretzel bites dipped in mustard, pimento cheese, and Penzey’s chip dip. Best spur of-the-moment $1 I’ve spent in a long while. I hope Kroger continues to carry this brand…. whatever brand it was, lol.
