Reading for 24 Hours TBR | #ReadathonByZoe and Finishing Some Books

#READATHONBYZOE'S 24 HOUR READATHON

Hello everyone! If you can tell by the title of this post, I am joining readbyzoe's 24 hour readthon. Now, it is time to see if I made a mistake before I continue with the idea that I intend to attend win this twenty-four hour readathon.

First, in order to start this, I need to explain what a readathon is to those of you who may have looked at the title quizzically. A readathon, according to my brain at 11 p.m., is a time of celebration as one can read as much as they want in a certain amount of time allotted by the curator of said readathon. This readathon is curated by Zoe Hertz from readbyzoe on YouTube and she announced that on March 3rd, which is approaching in just a few hours, the readathon will begin. The time when your clock chimes twelve is the time to start.


Now, as I love charts and lists, I needed to have one ready for my goals and amount of times I would track my progress throughout the day and night.



TBR:
As Zoe is completing some unfinished series of hers, I decided to stick with her theme and complete the books I have been currently reading.

  1. The Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin
  2. Ace of Shades by Amanda Foody
  3. Sparrow Squadron by DL Jung
  4. And, if I amazingly finish all of these, I would like to start Laini Taylor's Daughter of Smoke and Bone.

My Goals:

  • To finish some books I have been reading for a couple days to a couple months
  • To get some sleep so I can tutor a sweet, little girl in math
  • To have some sort of caffeine flowing through my veins
  • To read the most pages I can when I get the time
  • Update every few hours on Twitter and Instagram
  • To have a fun time reading as readers just wanna' have fun!
This has been my layout for my journey across the reading seas!


After warming up with a bit of a Harry Potter marathon of the first two movies, I think some heavy reading will be great!

I hope you enjoyed reading this little update, and I hope I have fun on Saturday! Have a great day/night!

Wish me luck,
newbookcats

      Hi Lili! Did you know that sometimes your name is autocorrected to Loki on my phone? Sorry, I just had to write that because it is interesting to me.

      My Readathon went okay. I did not have the best turnout as I barely finished anything because I was busy with school and tutoring. The day I think will be okay to do something was filled with work. I still had a fun time though as I did not sleep for a couple hours in the early morning. Also, I have been trying to write down my experience with the Readathon, but I haven't been able to due to midterms. And yes! I would love to join your Readathon. I think the timing will be much better, too, as midterms will be over. I cannot wait!

      Thanks for commenting, and have a lovely day!

Ten Enticing "One Day" Novels with INCREDIBLE Pacing and That Caused Me to Forget the World Around Me

Every Tuesday, Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl hosts Top Ten Tuesday, a series of posts created to appreciate lists of books and reading-related culture. The theme changes every week and is chosen by Jana. Come join our fangirl/boy craziness by naming your top ten favorite short reads in the comments or in your very own blog/social media post! Books and their stories, no matter the length, are extremely attractive. After a long day of work or school, it's only necessary to curl up on the couch and read a fraction of a story before sleeping the night away. However, some nights, the energy to finish a whole book readily flows in your veins and is fueled from the adrenaline of the right story. It's the nail-biting adventure novel with the cliffhanger chapters or the horrific fantasy giving goosebumps or the short king novellas. Whichever book floats your metaphorical boat, I have curated a list to cater to the interests of most readers. Ten genres is definitely not enough to cover...

Four Books I Recently Got in the Mail That Caused Me to Scream

Over the course of my life, books have always been a central part. This could be due to my mom being an advocate for reading or due to the several packages of books that come to my house at random times of the week. Every time a package appears on my doorstep, I squeal. My family says I outright scream bloody murder, but I think I just squeal loudly every time I see a shiny new book come into my hungry arms. Due to my past, I have followed my mom's footsteps and have been stacking my shelves with tons of books. Thanks to Tynga at Tynga's Reviews  who hosts Stacking the Shelves, all the bookworms, that turn into bookdragons later in life, have the ability to share their recent book mail. Today, as it is Saturday, I am sharing the four books I have gotten within the past month, which hopefully will make Four wish that he had some Dauntless cake. Let's get into destroying some perfectly good packaging! 1. The War Outside by Monica Hesse I am working with the people...

Dear All in the Book Community, To introduce myself, I am Nicole, or am known as newbookcats on the line, and I run my blog NewBookCatsREADS. Most likely, you have never heard of a book and cat getting along unless if the cat is allowed to play with the pages; however, on my blog, anyone who can appreciate the luxurious smell of a book or the tiniest sound you hear when you flip a page is my friend. I might dwell on the great smell of books for a while, but who can keep away from the sweet smell of a new or old book? Anyway, the book community has become a part of me; therefore, I need to give thanks to it through a letter listing ten reasons why I believe the book community is one of the best ones in the world. Gather your tissues and enjoy the list because books are a few of my favorite things! *imagine I have Julie Andrews' voice for just a minute* 10 Reasons Why the Book Community is Awesome: 1. You can grow in this community. I have only been a book blogger...
