So a lot of my favourite readathons either aren’t happening for the foreseeable future like The Bookie Trials or have been suspended this year for changes in upcoming years like The Magical Readathon so I was glad when the Reading Rush was going ahead as normal and here’s my TBR.
Read a book with a cover that matches the colour of your birth stone – My birth stone is amethyst so I’m going with a purple cover. For this I am going with Daughter of the Burning City by Amanda Foody.
Read a book that starts with the word “The” – now this challenge is harder than it first seems, but I am going with The Epic Crush of Genie Lo by F. C. Lee
Read a book that inspired a movie you’ve already seen – now this one was hard as I tend to read the books before seeing the movies. I chose Red Dragon by Thomas Harris which inspired the movie Manhunter.
Read the first book you touch – this one was hard as I tend to read a lot of books digitally, but I do have stacks in my room. The first book I touched (after closing my eyes) was Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman
Read a book completely outside of your house – I am not sure what I will pick for these but it will most likely be something by Sarah K. L. Wilson as all her books are short and I can read them in no time at all outside my house.
Read a book in a genre that you’ve always wanted to read more of – This was the hardest challenge for me as I know what genre I do and don’t like. One of the genres I like but read the least of would be historical fictions as I am very fussy about the setting and characters etc. However, I have been meaning to finish the Stalking Jack the Ripper series for quite some time, so I am going with Stalking Jack the Ripper by Kerri Maniscalco.
Read a book that takes place on a different continent than where you live – So the UK is on the continent of Europe which makes this difficult, but I am going to go with a book set in Asia. I am going with Ink by Amanda Sun which is set in Japan.
Here are all the book lengths and 1 book I will also be listening to so their audible lengths are included to:
Daughter of the Burning City = 384 pages
The Epic Crush of Genie Lo = 313 pages
Red Dragon = 348 pages
Stalking Jack the Ripper = 337 pages/ 9h 26m
Ink by Amanda Sun = 326 pages
Good Omens = 491 pages
Total number of pages = 2199 pages
