This is my first time officially signing up for Dewey's read-a-thon. I'm looking forward to the community feel, I love this idea of a bunch of book lovers coming together like this. I'm also looking forward to making a dent in these library books, need to slow my checking out and read some of my own.

Carrie  (icanhasbooks) | 11 comments Which hour was most daunting for you?
13/14 I was starting to feel sick. Not from readathon just started to feel ill

Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year?
If you like adventure, quirky characters and fantasy: The Book of Three by Lloyd Alexander

Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next season?
Not really, I think it went pretty well.

What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon?
The mini-challenges, I never participated other then in the #shelfie one but they was enjoyable to take a break to check out.

How many books did you read?
I finished 2 books
Started 2 others that never got completed

What were the names of the books you read?
The 2 that where finished are:
The Book of Three by Lloyd Alexander
The Doll House by Neil Gaiman
2 others that were started:
Independent Study by Joelle Charbonneau
Kodocha Vol1 Sana's Stage by Miho Obana

Which book did you enjoy most?
The's a tough one as both completed were 5 stars

Which did you enjoy least?
Both that have been completed are 5 stars, I think based on my reading so far Kodocha Vol 1 will be
How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time?
Chances are high unless something serious comes up. And as a reader once again.
