J L's Bibliomania (jlsbibliomania) | 9 comments I haven't been active on my Booklikes Site since last November. So I thought posting here would be easier and more social

1)What fine part of the world are you reading from today? And what time is it where you are?

Southern NJ, so in the "official" time zone. Starting at 8 pm

2) Which book in your stack are you most looking forward to?

Only book I've preselected is The Thirteenth Tale, which my IRL book club is reading

3) Which snack are you most looking forward to?

Our blackberries are ripe, so I am planning to bake blackberry squares sometime in the next day or so

4) Do you have a #reversereadathon plan of attack?

I haven't been reading/blogging a lot. My goals are 1) to make progress on the book for my book club and 2) to spend some time catching up logging the books I've read in the last few months

5) Are you doing the readathon solo or with others?

I am the only one doing the readathon, but I live in a household of readers. Hubby is curled up with Gardner Dozois's last anthology and younger son is reading web-fiction serials (as usual)

J L's Bibliomania (jlsbibliomania) | 9 comments Ended up spending my day in the Facebook group rather than here

But here's my ending survey:

How would you assess your reading overall?
I'm happy. I read for about 5 hours, finished a novella, and snuck in about an hour of a new audiobook

Did you have a strategy, and if so, did you stick to it?
Not strategy other than to read when I could around a tired Friday night and a very busy Saturday.

What was your favorite snack?
The leftover falafel bowl I ate for lunch

Wanna volunteer for our next event?
I have and will gladly cheer for other readers, host an hour here, or even captain a cheering squad on the day of the event, but my life is too full to commit to working outside the day of the Readthon itself.
