Poll
For our
March Readathon
(in the style of last year's October Readathon) we are celebrating Women's History Month:
PLEASE DON'T VOTE FOR A BOOK, instead write in as many books as you can that follow the theme of STRONG FEMALE CHARACTERS. The female character doesn't have to be the main character.
You can write in multiple books!
They can be any genre and can be YA, NA MG or adult.
Please don't write in a book from the middle of a series (I will remove it).

I absolutely LOVE The Darkest Minds!! It’s one of my favorite trilogies. I would love to reread it.

I love this type of readathon because we really get to know each other tastes and find other books we didn’t even think of.
Here are 6 more books:Room
The Handmaid's Tale
Divergent
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
Throne of Glass
Storm and Silence
I've never read any of these (except Divergent), so hopefully they're good. Also, I noticed that a lot of books on here are written by female authors 🧐 hmmm
Mod
I've added them all above! We've got so many books now! I think I'll close the poll once we reach 50 books.
Also, I didn't notice but go female authors!!
14/50 books I'll need to buy. <3 I'm in!
Would it be okay if when I generate one that I can't buy at the moment, to get to the next one and read every other one until I read all the ones I can get and then start buying the ones I have to buy?
Dana wrote: "Would it be okay if when I generate one that I can't buy at the moment, to get to the next one and read every other one until I read all the ones I can get and then start buying the ones I have to ..."Yea! She explained in the rules that if you can’t get that one immediately, go to the next one!
Ilsen wrote: "Dana wrote: "Would it be okay if when I generate one that I can't buy at the moment, to get to the next one and read every other one until I read all the ones I can get and then start buying the on..."Yes, I know, I read that. I just asked this just to make sure that I can skip multiple books if I get to any of the 14 I can't read yet.
Dana wrote: "Ilsen wrote: "Dana wrote: "Would it be okay if when I generate one that I can't buy at the moment, to get to the next one and read every other one until I read all the ones I can get and then start..."Yea you can skip as many until you can get a hold of any of them in the meantime!
Mod
Buying them all would be true dedication😂 But to answer your question: yeah, if the random picker picks a book and you haven't got it yet or won't be able to get it for a while then you can always put that book to one side and let the random picker pick something else for you to read. But you should try and come back to that first one again if you can.
Hope that helped clear things up for you😊

It did! Thank you very much, Kadi! <3
And I'll do my best to buy as many as I can! 50 books in a month will be impossible for me to read because I also work 5/7 days, but I'l dedicate to read as many as I can ^^.
Mod
Hey no worries! Read as many as you can! To be honest I'll also be busy with coursework which is due at the beginning of April but I'm going to aim to read at least 5 books which nowadays is a lot for me😬
So I'd say don't go out and buy any of the books you don't have just yet and instead wait to see what the picker chooses for you first because there are so many books it's possible that none of those books you don't have will be picked for you.

Yes, you are totally right, and I already considered that. I will read how much I can and how many books I can!
I just can't wait to start, haha! <3

I can't wait to start as well!
This will probably run from Friday 6th March to Friday 20th March...
