One of my subscriptions on YouTube mentioned a booktube-a-thon. Apart from trying to read as much as they can in one week's time, there are seven challenges.
1-read an average of 300 pages a day
2- read a book with over 500 pages
3- re-read one book
4- finish a series/trilogy
5- read a book that's been on your shelf forever
6- listen to an audiobook
7- read a classic
You're able to combine challenges as well. For example: re-read a 500 page classic you've bought 8 years ago.
Here is my list:
1- Scream Queen by Edo Van Belkom
--> re-read a book
--> been on my shelf since 2005 or 2006
2- City Of Bones by Cassandra Clare
--> 512 pages
3. Just a little series by Tracie Puckett
--> 7 book series ( less than 100 pages each)
4- pride and prejudice by Jane Austin
--> classic
The only challenge left is audiobook. I have the audiobook for fifty shades of grey trilogy but I've come to hate audiobooks. It changes the way I would have read it or imagined a story play out of changes the voice I had in mind for the characters.. My version in my head is better then someone else reading a story to me.
I will update you throughout the week.
Check out my TBR for July 2013 in my previous post for a longer list of reads this month.
Thanks for stopping by and let me know what you'll read for this challenge. Even if you see this at a later time, this challenge is do-able any week of the year.
