Hey guys! I didn’t join the readathon until a bit after I was supposed to, but I still picked out a 7 book TBR and I’m gonna give it my best shot to get through them all! If you don’t know about the Holiday AdventureAThon, here is the post:ย Holiday AdventureAThon
I’ll be reading for Team Holiday Snowman, incase anybody was wondering! So here is my TBR based on the prompts.
Presents: A book you got as a gift: The Magician’s Nephew by C.S Lewis (Chronicles of Narnia)
My mom bought me the set years ago and I have yet to read them. Oops. This is my chance!!
Santa: A book with red on the cover: Poison Study by Maria V. Snyder
I actually finished this book and this challenge yesterday, and the book was soooooo good!! I loved it. Can’t wait to read the next one. Although I fear that they are going to add a love triangle, which always, always gets me worked up.
Wonder: A book based on a holiday: Carry On by Rainbow Rowell
Okay, so I have a serious lack of holiday books on my shelves!! I have been told that this one does happen around Christmas so I’ve decided it counts…. If I decide I can justify going to the bookstore to get myself in the holiday spirit, I’m going to buy A Christmas Carol and swap these out. Not sure if that is going to happen though, so for now, this counts in my eyes!
Candles: Read a book by candlelight: ย The Wizards of Once by Cressida Cowell
I feel like candlelight will give me the perfect atmosphere to read this book. I know, I know, it looks more like a Halloween book than a Christmas book, but I’ll be reading it next to a Christmas candle!
Nice: Read a book that a friend or family member recommended to you: The Merciless by Danielle Vega
I am kind of unsure about this one, but my brother loves it and really thought I should read it, so I got it off of Book Outlet for like 3 dollars, and it will work perfectly for this prompt.
Jack Frost: Read a book with the word “snow” on the cover: Let It Snow by John Green, Maureen Johnson and Lauren Myracle
Ta da! The one and only holiday book I could find on my shelf. Which I own only because… John Green.
Snowman: Read a Historical Fiction Book: Stalking Jack the Ripper by Kerri Maniscalco
Started this one last night.. So far so good. ๐
Let me know if you are doing any readathons for the holidays and what you’re reading!
