(That means 'good night'. I'm trying out my Welsh heritage)
It is that time of year again! The Dewey's 24 hour read-a-thon is happening this Saturday 17th, and I decided ten minutes ago that I would take part. Besides it's the perfect excuse to be anti-social and read as much as I want. I know I'm not the only one who does that.
The way the read-a-thon works is that everybody starts at exactly the same time, so that no matter your time zone everyone kicks it off together. That means that if you are taking part you will need to check your starting time. I'll leave a link at the bottom of the post.
I'm not great with read-a-thons. I set myself an over-ambitious goal and then (surprise surprise) I never achieve it. Therefore this time I have decided that I shall set a more realistic goal with the hope of completing it this year. I'm in a contemporary mood which is useful as I find contemporaries easiest to binge read. Also I have been reading so much fantasy lately that it's a nice break.
Anyway, I'll get to it.
1. The Night Circus ~ Erin Morgenstern
Hopefully I will have already started this by then, as it is five hundred pages long. Either way I need to read it before the end of October as part of a TBR challenge my friend and I are taking part in.
2. The Perks of Being a Wallflower ~ Stephen Chbosky
I absolutely LOVE this book and I have been meaning to re-read it for a while, so I figured that now is the perfect chance. I'm in the mood for something that will make me cry.
If I finish these two, I will start another book, however I don't know what I'll be in the mood for so I'm going to leave that open.
I will be doing a wrap up that will be up next week, so keep an eye out for that.
Sorry for me recent absence, I'm back on track now.
Hwyl y ti,
