I did this readathon last year and although it was kind of half unsuccessful I did end up reading and enjoying the winning book (Cinder by Marissa Meyer) and had SO MUCH FUN making all the polls and revealing the answers. I saw that this readathon was back over at Aimal @ Bookshelves & Paperback’s blog and knew that I immediately had to do it again. It’s such a great way to motivate myself to read certain books too.
The readathon is hosted by hosted by Ely @ Tea & Titles and Val @ The Innocent Smiley. Long story short I post a bunch of books I want to read with a poll and YOU GUYS get to vote for what I read!!! The readathon will be running from August 6th through to August 13th. You can start reading as soon as it hits 12am in your timezone, or whenever you’d like.
- YOU CAN CHOOSE UP TO THREE BOOKS BECAUSE I KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO MAKE DECISIONS
- The poll will close like a week before the readathon starts.
- I’ll probably make a Twitter poll with the Top 4 and combine those results with these ones.
- THE RESULTS ARE SECRET BECAUSE I’M EVIL.
Will you be participating in this readathon?
What book should I read?
I hope you’re all having a fantastic day.

Aaaah I want to see the results – but I guess we all will see after all what you’re going to read! 😀 Good luck for the challenge, I won’t participate in it since I have Book-Tube-A-Thon to stress about in the last week of July (which is soon now, oh my) and one huge read-a-thon is enough within 3 months or such 😀

I have voted but oh my god Lauren you do not know how hard it was for me to only choose three on this list. 🙂 I did vote for three but you should probably know I would have voted for all of them if I could have. Basically these are all amazing books and I’m sure whatever ones you end up picking for this readathon you’ll really love.
Good luck with this readathon as well! 😀 ❤

HAHA! I figured it’d be hard for some people so I gave multiple choice. I was going to be truly evil and only give one but decided against it 😉 I do definitely want to read all of them eventually 😀 Thanks, Beth!!

Oh my god if you’d only given one choice I don’t even know what I would have done. I probably wouldn’t have been able to pick one and would have written in the comments that I voted for all of them! 😀
