Only one hour to go...but I'm struggling not to fall asleep again. Specially so close to the end line.

-End of Event Meme: 

1. Which hour was most daunting for you? 
    Definitely this last one; my energy from my nap went away and I had to keep changing positions not to fall asleep

2. Could you list a few high-interest books that you think could keep a Reader engaged for next year?

    I honestly think is really hard if you don't know the reader. I would suggest having something of non-fiction to the side but keeping it with a light tone, like A.J. Jacobs

3. Do you have any suggestions for how to improve the Read-a-thon next year?

    I loved the event as it was 

4. What do you think worked really well in this year’s Read-a-thon?

   I can't compare it with other years, so in my opinion everything worked nicely :)

5.How many books did you read?

   6
 

6. What were the names of the books you read?
    The Passage; Cleanup; Jersey Angel; The Guinea Pig Diaries; El misterio de las Tanias and My stroke of insight


 
7. Which book did you enjoy most?

    The Passage for Fiction and The Guinea Pig Diaries for non-fiction.

8.Which did you enjoy least?

   Jersey Angel...

9. If you were a Cheerleader, do you have any advice for next year’s Cheerleaders?

    I wasn't, but I would like to thank everyone who visited my page!

11. How likely are you to participate in the Read-a-thon again? What role would you be likely to take next time?


    I will definitely participate next year, probably at Fall. As a reader, and maybe as a cheerleader. I'm not sure I'm ready yet to be a host :$
