The Huge TBR Read-a-thon Wrap-up

    The Read-a-thon is over for me and so I am here to do my wrap-up post.




    What I managed to get finished was:
    Deathnote Volume 4 : Love by Tsugumi Ohba
    Nightlight by The Harvard Lampoon
    Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins
    Tyger Tyger by Kersten Hamilton
    The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman
    The Mermaid's Mirror by L.K Madigan


    And I read for a total of 37.6 hours.
    In these hours I managed to read a total of 1489 pages.


    Here is my activities for each of the days in case you were interested.
    Monday
    10 minutes of Nightlight
    I had been studying for exams all day so when I climbed into bed I could only manage 10 minutes of reading.


    Tuesday
    1 hour of Deathnote
    Just busy studying for my exams again. I managed to read more because I couldn't put this one down.


    Wednesday
    39 minutes of Deathnote
    27 minutes of Killer
    47 minutes of Catching Fire
    Total: 1.83 hours
    Getting a little better today.  Yay.  I decided to make a plan of action so I will finish Nightlight, then Catching Fire, then Tyger Tyger, then The Mermaid's Mirror, then Killer, then Sing Me To Sleep and from there see what happens.


    Thursday
    2 hours of Catching Fire
    Catching Fire is really really good it's incredibly addictive.  I'm reading a bit more each day so thats really good.


    Friday
    335 minutes Catching Fire
    134 minutes Nightlight
    Total: 7.8 hours
    I had my last exam in the morning so in the afternoon I read like crazy.  I kept forcing myself to read and my eyes were so sore. Luckily I had Mountain Dew to give me energy.


    Saturday
    218 minutes Catching Fire
    277 minutes The Graveyard Book
    124 minutes Tyger Tyger
    10 minutes Killer
    31 minutes The Mermaid's Mirror
    Total: 11 hours
    I started counting Saturday at midnight so I was reading like crazy as soon as Saturday ticked over.  I ended up reading over the stove top at 1 a.m making tomato soup. Then as I was having my soup I decided to read a little bit of Tyger Tyger.  Almost an hour later I went to bed because I was really enjoying Tyger Tyger. I ended up getting up at 9.30 had a super fast shower and sat down to read. I managed to finish Catching Fire which was so good. Then I managed to finish Tyger Tyger and then I finished The Graveyard Book.  I am on a really awesome thing here. I managed to read for 11 hours.


    Sunday
    420 minutes The Mermaid's Mirror
    74 minutes The Restaurant at the end of the Universe
    328 minutes Killer
    Total: 13.7 hours
    And the read-athon ends.


    The reviews for all the books I read will be up later on in the month, so stay tuned for those.


    Now that the readathon is over what am I going to do?  Well seeing as how I'm on holiday and I had so much fun just reading for hours on end, I think I may carry on and read some more!


    And finally, a HUGE thanks to Kristen at Bookworming in the 21st Century for hosting this!
