  • To be eligible for the grand prize giveaway, you must sign up by August 5th.


What to read? What to read? I am 7 books away from my 100 reading goal. I am too excited!!!

I am working on my readathon list tonight. I would like to polish off the last nine books during this challenge. However, I think that is wishful thinking when I add in the shows from Hulu's Summer Binge-A-Thon.

Now through August 11 is a lot of time. I just may surprise myself.

What are you going to read?

“Let’s do this!”

UPDATE:

The readathon has been extended to August 18. Read on people. Read on.

Starting Line

I am going to finish up with Adela Arthur and the Creator's Clock (The Chronicles of A, #1) by Judyann McCole. I am posting an author interview and book review on A. Literary Mafia.



_____________

I read NOS4A2 by Joe Hill by accident... it's a long story. This is officially my favorite horror book. SMH. I have never said that before. Review to come! I hope that someone makes a movie adaptation.




I read The Bird Savior because I have been on a dystopian kick since the Apocalypse Blog Hop. I am still confused by what I read, so I haven't posted a review yet. I kinda want to do a big year now. LOL!




I read How to Survive a Horror Movie by Seth Grahame-Smith in preparation for my Vamps vs. Zombies Month posts (August 17 - 31). I don't watch horror movies often. I might not be sleeping much in September.




I read Welcome to the Darkness by L.M. Justus as part of a Xpresso book tour. It happens to be a vampire story so it will count towards my Vamps vs. Zombie readings. I'll be posting an author interview and giveaway on August 23 on A. Literary Mafia.




I read Warm Bodies by Isaac Marion as part of Vamps vs. Zombies Month. Review on this blog coming soon!  Did you watch the movie adaptation?




I read All My Life by Rucy Ban (Contemporary, New Adult, Romance). I posted a giveaway and book review on A. Literary Mafia.




I read The Priest's Graveyard by Ted Dekker because I needed a book about a spiritual leader for The Seasonal Reading Challenge on Goodreads.




Last day! Today, I am listening to Underground by Kat Richardson and visiting other readathon participants. See you soon.




Finish Line

I made it! I made it! I reached my goal of reading 100 books in a year. *does crazy happy dance*

I usually slack up on my reading around September so I have been trying to read as much as possible before then.
