Last summer, I found these videos just before the booktube-a-thon; a week long read-a-thon hosted by Ariel Bissett. It consisted of reading sprints hosted on twitter as well as some weekly challenge goals. Some of these goals were to read a classic, reread a favorite, read a book that has been on your shelf forever etc.
From June to December I read 45 books! Way over what I thought would ever be possible. Booktube has recommended so many amazing books. I just couldn't get over how many stories captured my attention and led me astray from my other hobby, scrapbooking.
I tracked my reading through goodreads.com. They have a yearly goodreads reading challenge. This year my goal is 100 books. I am already at 35 and it's only been 6 months. I think I can do it since this list includes novellas accompanying a series/ trilogy as well.
The number isn't the important thing, reading is but does this challenge ever help me keep picking up more books after I finish one.
Some of the books I read this year include:
Delirium trilogy by Lauren Oliver
Panic by Lauren Oliver
We Were Liars by E. Lockheart
Shatter Me trilogy by Tehereh Mafi
Never Fade by Alexandra Bracken
The Edge Of Never by J.A Redmerski
Not A Drop To Drink by Mindy McGinnis
Miss Perigrine's Home For Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
To All The Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han
Rebel Belle by Rachel Hawkins
Attachments by Rainbow Rowell
Love Letters To The Dead by Ava Dellaira
Heaven Is For Real by Todd Burpo
Pride Over Pity by Kailyn Lowry
City Of Ashes by Cassandra Clare
