August 💫 Tome Topple, Dewey’s 24 Hour 2020 Reverse ReadAThon & Roll the Dice ReadAThon 📚 TBR!

Post author By Eliza Eames
Post date July 30, 2020
4 Comments on August 💫 Tome Topple, Dewey’s 24 Hour 2020 Reverse ReadAThon & Roll the Dice ReadAThon 📚 TBR!

Yes, I am taking on 3 ReadAThons minimum this month! May I join another? Maybe. Maybe not. We will see!!
So let’s jump into it

General August TBR & Dewey’s 24 Hour 2020 Summer Reverse ReadAThon TBR

So firstly, Dewey’s 24 Hour ReadAThon begins 7th of August at 8pm EST. So for me in Australia it begins at 10am on the 8th of August! Which is also the same day Tome Topple begins.
I have a general TBR which I will be focusing on during the days that I am not doing any ReadAThons (1st to 7th) and also during Dewey’s. Even though Dewey’s is also day 1 of Tome Topple I am not going to stress about the 500+ page requirement for Dewey’s.

Fable & Firefrost are both eARCs that I need to read & review before September. So they will be my first priorities. Then I will concentrate on the others if I have time.

Tome Topple TBR

Tome Topple goes from 8th to 21st of August and I have a bit of an ambitious TBR but I am aiming to try and get some of the books off my TBR that are on my 20 books to read in 2020 list.

These are the 5 books I will be aiming to read. Which as I said may be ambitious but I will try my hardest! I may end up picking up The Devil’s Thief as an audiobook and maybe one of the others. Will just see how I feel!

Roll the Dice ReadAThon

So I don’t have a TBR for this one as I will be discovering what I will be reading as it happens. For this one there are 2 methods that you could chose to take and I am using the method where you assign each of your shelves a number, roll the dice to chose a shelf, then assign each book on that shelf a number & roll again to discover what book to read. So obviously I don’t have a TBR for this one!

What’s on your TBR for August?

Harry Potter Edition ✨ Fantasy JourneyAThon TBR

Post author By Eliza Eames
Post date August 10, 2019

So Fantasy JourneyAThon starts in 2 minutes as I’m writing this sentence. Originally I planned to film a TBR video for my Channel but It has been a crazy couple days and I just haven’t had the time to film & edit! Now the ReadAThon has started and my TBR still isn’t up, so here it is!

Fantasy JourneyAThon Announcement

Firstly I am on Team Gryffindor and I will be earning points throughout the week by participating in the Instagram & Litsy Challenges as well as reading!

My TBR

Read a book with a bird on the cover

This is the second book to Legend by Marie Lu, which I haven’t actually read. I planned to read it before the ReadAThon but haven’t got there. So I will also be aiming to read Legend this book!

Read a book with witches/wizards

This is of course a reread for me and I can’t wait. I’ve been really enjoying my physical reread of this series!

Read a book with scarlet on the cover

This one is an audiobook that I have had on my TBR for way too long! Finally picking it up and fulfilling this challenge!

Read a book with a tree on the cover

This one has a whole Wood on the cover, so I think it fits. This is Volume 1 in a new to me Graphic Novel series and I can’t wait to dive in!

Read a book under 300 pages

This is the other Graphic Novel I have in my TBR and I’m keen for this one too! It’s also super short so fits this challenge!

Read a book with a beautiful cover

This one definitely fits this challenge as this cover is beautiful! This is a cover read for sure as I know nothing about this book! This one is also an audiobook I will be listening to.

Read a book with a dark theme

I don’t know much about this one but I have it on my physical TBR and it looks super dark and creepy!

Read a book with multiple POV or Authors

This is my next audiobook and this is an anthology. So not only does it have multiple POV but it also has multiple Authors!

Read a book with magic

This is the last audiobook on my tbr! I keep hearing good things about this one and apparently it has magic, so I’m in!

Read a book set in the real world

This one I need to read for a Blog Tour which is happening soon, so I chose it for this challenge! It is set in our world so it fits this challenge!

Are you participating in the Harry Potter edition of Fantasy JourneyAThon? What team are you on?!

Purchase any of the books mentioned from BOOK DEPOSITORY! World Wide FREE shipping and awesome prices? Can’t say no to that!

Day 10 Update – OWLs Magical ReadAThon

Post author By Eliza Eames
Post date April 10, 2019
10 Comments on Day 10 Update – OWLs Magical ReadAThon

So it is the 10th day of OWLs Magical ReadAThon and I thought I would do a little update of what I’ve read so far and what challenges I’ve completed so far!

Physical Reads

I read 3/4 of A Curse So Dark and Lonely after the ReadAThon started. So I decided to count it towards the Ancient Runes challenge as it is a Beauty and the Beast retelling!

I planned to read The Song Rising but decided to reread the first 2 books before reading it as it had been a while and I couldn’t remember as much as I liked. I decide to use this one for the Divination challenge as this is set in the future.

Audiobooks

I’ve been slowly making my way through the Hercule Poirot series and I have so far read these 2 this month. I used Murder in Mesopotamia for the History of Magic challenge & Cards on the Table for the Charms challenge.

I have started rereading The Medoran Chronicles by Lynette Noni via audiobook. So far I have read Akarnae, Raelia & Draekora. I have used Akarnae for the Herbology challenge & Raelia for the Potions challenge. Draekora doesn’t fit in any of the challenges unfortunately.

Currently Reading

I’m reading The Mime Order by Samantha Shannon as part of my reread before starting The Song Rising. I’m also rereading Graevale as the next part in The Medoran Chronicles series. Graevale also doesn’t fit in the challenges anywhere. I am using The Mime Order for the Transfiguration challenge.

Are you participating in OWLs Magical ReadAThon? How many challenges have you finished so far?!

PURCHASE ANY OF THE BOOKS MENTIONED FROM BOOK DEPOSITORY! WORLDWIDE FREE SHIPPING.

Scallywagathon Round 2 TBR

Post author By Eliza Eames
Post date May 17, 2018

Okay, so some of you may remember me participating in round 1 back in November and guess what it is happening again! This ReadAThon was not on my May ReadAThon Guide as it was only announced 2 days ago. I am going to copy and paste the info section from my the round 1 TBR as it is all working the same, the only difference is the challenges. This ReadAThon is pretty complex and can be confusing, so I hope my explanation helps you!

This ReadAThon starts at midnight on the 20th of May & ends at 11:59 on the 27th of May.

You can watch Ali’s video HERE for a whole in depth desrciption of the ReadAThon along with an example TBR but I am going to try and explain it!

Firstly, the map!

*This was taken from the link in Ali’s video.*

Every number and letter on the map corresponds to a challenge in the graphic below!
Okay, so how this map works is first you pick a number between 1 & 5. Once you pick your starting point you follow the corresponding coloured line to the next challenge. Most of them have more than one option you can choose from. Then when you get to your first stop you then follow that number or letter’s corresponding coloured line to the next challenge until you get to the treasure chest. All of the tracks you take will have 4 challenges but if you finish those 4 in the week you are welcome to continue onto any of the other challenges you wish.
So, here is an example of how to navigate the map. I am going to start at 1, from there I will follow the dark purple line to 6, from there I will follow the orange line to A and then from A I will follow the dark blue line to 9 and then to the treasure! Hopefully, that makes sense.

The path I will be following is:

5 > 8 > A > 9

5: Calm before the storm – The first in a series

A Shot in the Dark by Lynne Truss

This is an Adult Mystery that I received an ARC of and need to read by the end of June. This one comes out 28th of June in Aus.

8: Yo Ho Ho! – Book that starts with ‘RRRRRR’

Rise of Fire by Sophie Jordan

This is the second book in the Reign of Shadows duology. I listened to Reign of Shadows a while ago and really enjoyed it! Reign of Shadows is a dark Rapunzel retelling and it ended on a rather large cliffhanger so I’m keen to continue.

A: Marooned: Standalone

Endless Night by Agatha Christie

There is a heap of Agatha Christie books on Scribd, so I hunted through her standalones and came up with this one!

9: Blow down the man – A book by a woman author

The Theft and the Miracle by Rebecca Wade

This is one of the books I am reading for the Book to School challenge. It is also by a female author, so perfect!!

ScallyWagAThon TBR

Okay, so I am utterly fucking crazy! This will be ReadAThon number 4 in November. You can find my #HouseCupReadingChallenge TBR HERE & Read-A-Thin HERE if you wanted to know about those. My TBR for Duodecathon will be up closer to the dates of it.

Okay, so as this was a late announcement and it didn’t make it onto my November Reading Guide till about half an hour ago I am going to put all the info below. I’ll just copy and paste it straight from my guide! If you already know then just skip the the ‘My TBR’ header.

Okay, so this is a really fun looking ReadAThon and I’m thinking about adding it into my crazy November!!

This ReadAThon starts at midnight on the 5th of November & ends at 11:59 on the 11th of November. There is alsoa Pirates of the Caribbean WatchALong happening from the 12th to the 18th.

You can watch Ali’s video HERE for a whole in depth desrciption of the ReadAThon along with an example TBR but I am going to try and explain it!

Firstly, the map!

*This was taken from the link in Ali’s video.*

Okay, so how this map works is firstly you pick a number between 1 & 5. Once you pick your starting point you follow the corresponding coloured line to the next challenge. Most of them have more than one option you can choose from. Then when you get to your first stop you then follow that number or letter’s correspoding coloured line to the next challenge until you get to the treasure chest. All of the tracks you take will have 4 challenges but if you finish those 4 in the week you are welcome to continue onto any of the other challenges you wish.
So, here is an example of how to navigate the map. I am going to start at 1, from there I will follow the dark purple line to 6, from there I will follow the orange line to A and then from A I will follow the dark blue line to 9 and then to the treasure! Hopefully that makes sense.

When you complete the 4 challenges you can enter your email in the link on Ali’s video to get some free printables from Ali!

Okay, next is the Pirates of the Caribbean WatchALong. Here is a calendar that can be downloaded from the link in Ali’s video. It has the dates on the sides for each of the movie WatchALongs. However follow Ali on Twitter as she will be announcing closer to the date the times that they will be watching each movie.

And finally she is holding a giveaway! All you have to do is post your TBR to either YouTube, Blog or Tumblr and leave the link in the comments of Ali’s video. Also make sure you leave a way for Ali to contact you in your TBR post.

So the path I am following is:

5 > 8 > A > 9

5: Open Waters – Blue on the cover

8: Tell it to the parrot – Over hyped book

A: Marooned – A standalone

9: Clear the deck – From your owned TBR

I own both a physical copy and the audiobook of this but I will be listening to the audiobook for the challenge.

7: Crow’s Nest – New release you’ve had your eye on

Well that is all for my TBR! And as for the giveaway part, on the off chance I win, you can contact me on Twitter or Instagram @duskangelreads

November Read-A-Thin TBR

I have decided to participate in Read-A-Thin! This ReadAThon goes for the whole of November and concentrates on thinning out your TBR pile!

The only rule is that you have to use books you already own or have already borrowed from the library. You can’t buy or borrow a book for the challenge.

Find the Read-A-Thon Goodreads group HERE!

You can use 1 book for up to 2 challenges! I have done that a bit as you will see.

1. Read a 2017 Release

2. Read a diverse book

3. Read a book that is related to your favourite Emoji

4. Read a book with a fall themed cover

5. Start and finish a series

Am I starting and finishing the same series? No! Do I care? Also no!

6. Read a book in 24 hours

7. Read a new to you author

8. Buddy Read a Book

This is the The Most Popular Reads BOTM for November. So I will be buddy reading with a lot of people.

9. Read a horror/thriller

10. Read a book outside your favourite genre

11. Read an eBook

12. Listen to an audiobook of a book your own

13. Read a book that counts toward another ReadAThon

14. Read a book that is due back to the library the soonest

I’m not doing this as I don’t borrow books from my library as it’s hopeless.

15. Read a book you ended up putting down previously

I’m not doing this one either. I have only DNFd two books and I put them down as I hated me. I’m not picking them back up…

16. Read a book you got from a subscription box

17. Read a book you got for free (gift, ARC, giveaway, etc.)

18. Read 4 books

Well if I read all of those, then that will be more than 4 books.

As this ReadAThon crosses over with 12 days of the House Cup Reading Challenge so of these books also count for that. Those include Gemina, And I Darken, Warcross and Mask of Shadows. Well, that is all for my TBR.

Let me know if you are participating! What’s on your TBR?!

#HouseCupReadingChallenge TBR

Post author By Eliza Eames
Post date October 10, 2017
6 Comments on #HouseCupReadingChallenge TBR

As soon as I saw this I had to join up! This is a reading challenge is hosted by Live Love Read YA, Booksy Daisy Reviews, Kelsey’s Cluttered Bookshelf & Escape Under the Cover (don’t bother looking at this blog as they haven’t posted since 2015.. But it was the link that the other bloggers used, so I used it too..)

I’m not going to go into any details about the reading challenge on here but you can find all the info & sign up HERE! All I will say is that this reading challenge is happening from Sunday, October 15, to Sunday, November 12. So that’s 4 weeks and a day for this challenge.

All the books I choose are books I already own or have on one of the eBook apps I have.

Hogwarts Student Questionaire!

Firstly, I’m a Gryffindor! The Gryffindor house badge below is from the Sign Up posts.

And the below graphic is mine and answers all the questions on the Sign Up post!

Main Challenges (Year level challenges)

So these challenges are just your own choice of what you read and with each of the books, you read you go up a Hogwarts year level.

These books will really depend on what I get finished before then! So instead of picking 7 specific books, I’m just going to pick some of the options that I know I want to read by the end of the month and then at the start of November I will concentrate on the bonus challenges! (Well that is my plan!)

First Year: reader’s choice

Second Year: reader’s choice

Third Year: reader’s choice

Fourth Year: reader’s choice

Fifth Year: reader’s choice

Sixth Year: reader’s choice

Seventh Year: reader’s choice

gemina-by-amie-kaufman-and-jay-kristoff (1)

Gemina will be a reread and I will be rereading via audiobook! They don’t say anything about rereads not counting, so I am definitely using it!

Bonus Challenges!

I will not be doing all of these obviously as that would be a total of 20 books in 4 weeks!

Gryffindor: Read a book with an epic hero/heroine

Hufflepuff: Read a book that contains a strong friendship

Ravenclaw: Read a book that revolves around a mystery

Slytherin: Read a book set in a dystopian world

Astronomy Class: Read a book set in outer space

Care of Magical Creatures: Read a book that features an animal or magical/mythical creature

So I couldn’t think of anything for this so I just googled books with magical creatures and this came up, so I’m hoping it’s correct.

Tri-Wizard Tournament: Read a book that includes a competition

This one was difficult as the only book that came to mind with this was One Dark Throne by Kendare Black, however, I don’t own it yet. So I just googled books with competitions and this came up, so I’m hoping it’s correct.

Occlumency: Read a book about a character with magical abilities or superpowers

Death Eater: Read a book told from the POV of a villain

Again, googled it as I couldn’t think of anything for this, so if it’s not accurate, not my fault.

Platform 9 3/4: Read a book that features travel

Time Turner: Read a book set in the future or past

Fantastic Beasts: Read a spin-off to a beloved series

I don’t own this book yet but I plan on buying it very soon!

Dumbledore’s Army: Buddy-read a book with a friend or group

This is a BOTM for The Most Popular Reads Facebook Group for November! So I’m buddy reading with heaps of people!

Well, I think that is all! I will try and do an update weekly to let you know how I’m doing and also on what points and year level I’m on!!

2017 Beat the Backlist Reading Challenge – June, July & August Update

Post author By Eliza Eames
Post date September 5, 2017
1 Comment on 2017 Beat the Backlist Reading Challenge – June, July & August Update

Okay, so I am here for my next update of the Beat the Backlist Challenge! I have given up on the points part of this for 2 reasons. One is that I kept forgetting to enter the points and then because there was no way to know what I had entered and what I hadn’t I was either missing books or doubling up. Second, was that the host was taking FOREVER to update the points thing to see who was actually winning and it was irritating me when it was like over a month… I get that people have lives but if you don’t have the time to keep up with something then don’t do it in the first place.

Anyway! You can find my January & February Update HERE & my March, April & May Update HERE!

And if you don’t know what the Beat the Backlist Challenge is, it’s basically reading books that aren’t new releases (so for this specific challenge it’s any book published in 2016 or earlier!
