Rook’s comments from the Unexpected Readathon Time / Books Out of the Blue group.

Yesterday ended up being an off day :////// I was in a Lot of pain so I ended up only getting about 30 pages outta Good Omens. I'm feeling pretty good today though and I hope to get a lot more read!!!!

Today was pretty good!!! I read 105 pages out of The Poet X and finished it (Btw, GREAT book, if anyone hasn't read it they should)!!!! I also started Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch and got to page 30 in it!!!! A total of 135 pages for today!!!! I hope to really get into Good Omens tomorrow, but I don't know that I'll have the time. I hope I do though!!!!!

Today ended up being a surprisingly good reading day!!! Part of that might be because 1. I really REALLY LOVE The Poet X and 2. it Is a fairly easy read because of the way it's written. I read 210 pages today, and I hope to finish my book tomorrow!!!!!

Oops, I forgot to update last night lmao. I only got 46 pages read out of The Poet X, but I'm hoping today I'll have more time to read!!!

I got quite a bit more read today!!! I read about 297 pages out of The Best Bad Things and finished it (That was my LGBT+ rep, Bi main character who's also genderfluid)!!!! Tomorrow I intend to start The Poet X (Black Author) depending on what all I have to do!!!! Here's hoping tomorrow will be another good reading day!!!!!

Well, I didn't get to read as much as I wanted to for the first day. I ended up surprisingly (and annoyingly) busy today. I only got about 53 pages from The Best Bad Things in today. Hopefully I'll have more time tomorrow!!!!

I think I've decided my tbr for this readathon!!!! So far I'm planning it to be:

The Poet X (Black Author)

The Best Bad Things (LGBT+ rep, what I'm currently reading, main character's bi and possibly genderfluid)

Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (I don't Technically think this counts as LGBT+ but I want to read it, and to those who have either read it or seen the show, Let's be real here lmao)

I don't think I'll be able to finish all of these, but if I do I don't know what I'll read after!!!! Either way I'm extremely excited about this readathon!!!!

HELL YEA!!!!! Hopefully this will encourage me to read more, because (even though I am greatly enjoying the book I am currently reading so far) I'm in a reading slump!!!! I'm not sure yet what my Tbr is going to be, so I'll have to update again later, but I definitely plan on joining!!!!!

So I surprised myself and finished Howl's Moving Castle!!!! Which makes that 329 pages read today!!!! My page count for this readathon comes to a total of 669!!!! This was a lot of fun and I can't wait for the next one!!!!!

I started Howl's Moving Castle today and got 100 pages read out of it!!!! I plan on reading at least 100 more pages from it tomorrow!!!!

Well, its almost midnight here but I finished The Help!!! For today that makes about 240 pages!!!! I think tomorrow I'm gonna start Howl's Moving Castle!!!!!

HELL YEA!!!!! I LOVE these readathons!!!! I don't know if I'll be able to read anything else, but I'm gonna try and finish The Help by Kathryn Stockett!!!

I ended up finishing Pitch Dark by Courtney Alameda!!! So that means I've read 236 pages today XD Tomorrow, I'm probably going to start Once Upon A Dream: A Twisted Tale by Elizabeth J. Braswell!!! I'm not sure how much time I'll have to read it, as I have work tomorrow, but I'm excited about it nonetheless!!!

Oooh I'm game for extending the readathon!!!! Esp. since I only got like 20 pages read yesterday XD I'll probs have a Lot of time to read today though after getting some groceries, so I'll update again later!!!!!

Oops forgot to update yesterday, but I finished This Is Where It Ends by Marieke Nijkamp (I had 100 pages left) and started Pitch Dark by Courtney Alameda and got about 25 pages out of it read yesterday!!! Today I've read about 100 more pages out of Pitch Dark!!! It's pretty good so far, though I wish I had been a little more warned about the abuse/controlled-against-one's-will parts in the very beginning of the book, but now that I'm past that it's really good!!!

Well I'm not sure where I found the time, but I've started reading This Is Where It Ends by Marieke Nijkamp, and I've read 204 pages out of it XD it's incredibly good but also very triggering, I'm hoping to finish it tomorrow but I'm not sure I will

So somehow I managed to read 107 pages today and finish my book (Heretics Anonymous by Katie Henry) and now I'm not sure what to read next xD I'm also not sure I'll have Any time to read tomorrow with Thanksgiving and all, but hopefully I will!!!

Nice!!! This should help motivate me to read more, as I've kind of hit a reading slump the past two months due to stress!!! I don't really know if I'll have a TBR since I'm not sure what I want to read if I finish my current book, but this will be fun nonetheless!!!

Well, I never actually ended up reading yesterday, so I only go around 536 pages read this readathon!!! Not too bad, but hopefully next readathon I'll have more time to read

Today was pretty good, I got 135 pages read out of The Shelters of Stone!!! I'm not too sure if I'll have much time to read tomorrow, apparently we have family plans I wasn't told about, but I'll just have to see.
