End of the Read-a-thon (not much of a success for me)

So the read-a-thon finished already... needless to say, judging for my lack of updates, it wasn't really a success for me. I slept (less than usual, but still almost a complete night's sleep), even though I woke up in the middle of the night to read a book. After I finished it, I went back to bed :P

So, without further ado...
Total no. of books read: 3.5 (Rotkaeppchen muss weinen, Best Friends Getting Sorted, The Boyfriend Trap, and about 300 pages of The Little Stranger)
Total time spent reading: I guess about 6 hours
Total no. of pages read: 789 (not too bad, but not too good either)
Blogs visited: ahem... let's drop it, shall we? Next read-a-thon, I'm going to sign up to be a cheerleader. That should be fun.

And that's about it, folks... Enjoy your Sunday. I think I should start blogging again and write mini-reviews for the books I read... It would be a good exercise, plus otherwise I'm not even going to remember what I read after a few months. Too many books out there to read, too little time, I'm sure you know it.

Hey there's nothing wrong with that! I was busy this weekend so I only got about 2 hours reading.

I'm impressed that you read so many -- I need to remember the readathon for next year!

I started my book blog specifically so I could remember what I thought about my books upon finishing them -- a year would go by and I'd find myself getting the same books out because I couldn't remember! ;)

And finally, Boo!

What a neat thing to try - the read-a-thon, you did really good - I would get distracted by my kid or husband, and lose time that way, plus I do love to sleep - Way to go on the reading you did - BOO - get done!
