tuesday 28/07 unfinished post:
last night i finished with the selection and i ended up really loving it.
right now i'm reading the elite which is the sequel to the elite. i'm planning to finish with the series by the end of the week, so i could take a part in next week's booktube-a-thon 2015!
wednesday 29/07:
i have finished with the elite! i'm currently reading the one and i'm really really enjoying it! i also found out that warner brothers have bought the film rights for the selection and i can't wait to see the films if they ever happen to come out! really cool.
so, today will be a huge reading day for me, i'm hoping to get through both the one and the heir so i'll see where that goes. yesterday i read the whole book of the elite at night. night being from 11pm to 2am. okay, i read around eighty pages the day before but who cares.
SO. BOOKTUBE-A-THON. what is it?
it's a week long reading marathon where you have to read through a challenge every day, starting from the 3rd of august to the 9th of august. so, next week.
this year's challenges:
1 - read a book with blue on the cover
2 - read a book by an author who shares the same first letter of your last name
3 - read someone else's favourite book
4 - read the last book you acquired
5 - finish a book without letting go of it
6 - read a book you really want to read
7 - read seven books
every day there's a video challenge on booktube-a-thon's youtube channel, by a booktuber (youtube personality who makes videos about books). the challenge's are completed by the viewers and the people who are doing booktube-a-thon and every day there's a chance to win a book. the overall host for this reading marathon is the amazing ariel bissett who is the host for the starting and finishing days of booktube-a-thon!
this year's hosts are:
monday - ariel: https://www.youtube.com/ArielBissett
tuesday - raeleen: https://www.youtube.com/padfootandpro...
wednesday - catriona: https://www.youtube.com/LittleBookOwl

there's also a discount on a hundred books on bookdepository.com just on the time when booktube-a-thon is taking place. so, get your hands on that! the discount code is "BOOKTUBEATHON10". i personally can't because i've spent way too much money on books this month and i'm waiting for a few things from publishers, so, yeah.

(in the challenge order)
1 - Ketlin Priilinn "Armastusega fännidelt" (in estonian)
