2. How many books have you read so far?

• One and parts of two others.

3. What book are you most looking forward to for the second half of the Read-a-thon?

• Finishing up In the Company of Cheerful Ladies by Alexander McCall Smith

4. Did you have to make any special arrangements to free up your whole day?

• Not really.  This is my 4th readathon, so my family is used to it by now.  Thankfully, I have two teenage sons and a husband who can take care of themselves for a day!

5. Have you had many interruptions? How did you deal with those?

• A few, but nothing major.  That’s to be expected!

6. What surprises you most about the Read-a-thon, so far?

• That I enjoy it so much every single time!!!

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

• None.  Great job!

8. What would you do differently, as a Reader or a Cheerleader, if you were to do this again next year?

• Nothing really.  I know what works for me by now!

9. Are you getting tired yet?

• A little.  I only got 5 hours of sleep last night, so I might have to take a little nap later!

10. Do you have any tips for other Readers or Cheerleaders, something you think is working well for you that others may not have discovered?

• No, everyone is so different in what works for them.  It’s really trial and error.

3rd reading stretch stats:  96 pages, 97 minutes.  Most of the way through Natasha and Other Stories by David Bezmozgis.  Jewish Russian immigrants in Canada.  Liking this book very much, though the title story is a bit racy.

In total: 255 minutes and 233 pages
