Hello fellow readers!
It is officially August and the first day of the BookTube-a-thon. Click here to read my post to find out more information about the readathon and the books I have planned to read throughout the week.
So far Monday hasn’t been a bad day for me, I did feel slightly ill earlier, so that hindered the amount I read, but overall I’m pleased with my progress so far. Although, from reflecting, I could’ve done a lot more reading.
Current Reads
So far I am just under half way into reading these short stories by J.K. Rowling, they are very quick to flow through and interesting to read. I plan to finish the remainder tonight, so that I can move on to my next choice soon.
At first I planned for this comic to be read throughout the week of the readathon, as I did not want to rush it. But since I’d been reading this on and off throughout today, I’ve made my way through it faster then I expected. It’s weird how that happened because I wasn’t at first, but then I decided to add character voices, as a way to make it more interesting. Which it did and boosted my reading experience a lot.
So far I am, I believe 70 something pages in, and for now it’s only been 3 stars read for me. I don’t think my star rating will be raised higher, because I’m nearly finished, but we’ll see.
The Martian has been very interesting and not how I expected the book to be written. I’m listening to the audiobook, which has been very handy as it makes tasks I need to do a lot more interesting.
So far I am 92 pages in and looking forward to reading more.
Completed Reads
I am very happy to say that I finished reading Butter by Erin Lange, it was an enjoyable read, but comparing the book to Dead Ends by Erin Lange, I would say that that was a much more enjoyable read. There’s more I would like to say about Butter, so I’ll add that to the list of books that I’ll be reviewing soon.
I also finished the Hero of Ages (before the BookTube-a-thon started), which left me feeling incomplete. I still don’t know what to fully say about the final book to the trilogy, but I will try and gather words together to create a useful book review.
I hope I haven’t gone on for far too long as I wanted this post to be quick update.
How has your reading experinece been so far in the BookTube-a-thon?
Happy Reading!
