Dewey's 24 Hour Read-a-Thon discussion

Which reading experience should everyone try at least ONCE?

I would say going to an author event (either at a bookstore or your local library). It's so cool to hear authors talk about how they wrote their books, and you usually get a chance to get their autograph.

I went to a Jane Austen themed birthday party last year. I think celebrating a birthday based on one favorite reads would be amazing.
