#24in48 – Closing Survey

Good morning everyone, it’s already 7 am here in Germany, so my readathon actually ended hours ago. But here’s my Closing Survey:

How many books did you read? Pages? (If you didn’t keep track, tell me that too!)

4 books finished, 2 of them were CRs. Among them 2 audio books. It’s been ~ 13 hours of audio books, but I did not really track that.

I didn’t really keep track of my books either, but thankfully I made updates on my summary post. So I read more or less 700 pages.

How many hours did you read?

24, plus the minutes read in the bathroom that I didn’t track.

What do you think worked well in this readathon? What do you think could be done to improve the readathon for next time?

I don’t know a thing that did not work well. I would love to have more Germans signing up, but that’s nothing you could change and I’m always advertising the ‚thon. Apart from that? It’s been fun, I’ve got no complaints.

Will you participate in a future 24in48 readathon?

SURE!

 

Thank you all very much and good night, dear American friends. Good morning Europe. On to a new day of reading.

#24in48 – Opening Survey July 2017

So here it is. The opening survey again. Now it really feels like readathon.

 

  1. Where in the world are you reading from this weekend?
    Germany, as always. I should move, so I can finally say something else in this question.
  2. Have you done the 24in48 readathon before?
    Yep. It’s my third time at least.
  3. Where did you hear about the readathon, if it is your first?
    It isn’t, but back then, I kinda googled readathons as there are none in my country and I just wanted to do one. Never found other internationals then this and the Dewey’s. Are there more?
  4. What book are you most excited about reading this weekend?
    I actually trapped myself a bit with a list of books I really want/need to read this summer and swore not to read anything else until I finished off this bloody list. But there are borrowed books on it, that should finally be returned, and a book that’s waiting on the TBR now since 2010.
    I guess I’m most excited about ‚The Whizz Pop Chocolate Shop‘ by Kate Saunders. Hopefully I’ll get to reading it as I have 3 books I already started and want to finish first.
  5. Tell us something about yourself.
    Well, I just ‚graduaded‘ with my master’s degree in Social Science and now I’m unemployed. I use the time to work on my first novel. 50k words done yesterday, still a few to come.
  6. Remind us where to find you online this weekend.
    Mostly I’ll be on twitter (here) and on this blog. Maybe you’ll find a few posts on Instagram (letemeatbooks) or Litsy (taayasbooks), but I always plan to use both and then I stick to Twitter, so better look for me there.

 

And now have fun reading

Blogumzug

Liebe Leser,

wer bei Facebook meinen Kampf mitbekommen hat, weiß ich, dass ich umgezogen bin. Ich hatte, wie vor einiger Zeit angemerkt, Probleme mit meinem alten Provider. Da der in letzter Zeit immer mehr Änderungen vorgenommen hat, ohne die Nutzer zu informieren, aber auch, weil ich eine zweite Domain für mein Autorenpseudonym brauchte, habe ich mich entschlossen, umzuziehen in einen besseren und günstigeren Vertrag eines anderen Anbieters.

Top Ten Thursday – Bücher für den Sommer

 

Obwohl ich mich in letzter Zeit von Aktionen fern halte, weil sie selten wirklich einen Mehrwert für den normalen Blogleser bieten, möchte ich doch diese Woche wieder am Top Ten Thursday von Steffi teilnehmen. Denn diese Woche geht es um die „10 Bücher, die du gerne im Sommer lesen möchtest“. Ich beziehe das einfach mal auf den aktuellen Sommer. Und dann brauche ich tatsächlich diese Liste. Denn ich habe hier noch das eine oder andere geliehene Buch, das eigentlich mit Bookcrossing weiterreisen soll und das doch seit Monaten bei mir liegt.
