hello everyone! today i am going to be talking about the reading rush tbr. i’m so excited for this read a thon, and i think this is the third time i’m participating, but i honestly have no clue. i’m honestly not sure if i’m going to stick to my tbr, or if i’ll just try to read 7 books. but, honestly these prompts are kinda stupid this year.
READ A BOOK THAT MATCHES YOUR BIRTH STONE.
okay, but this one is really stupid. i mean it’s just kinda hard since most of them have multiple, and then also have like a diamond, just like me. and no real book has that whole diamond color, as their cover, so i just decided to pick a book with a white/grey color.
waiting for tom hanks by Kerry Winfrey. i feel like this has more of a blue/grey cover, but i still think it will just fit. i mean how are you supposed to find a diamond color book cover. i also have a hold on it anyway, so it should work just fine.
READ A BOOK WITH THE FIRST LETTER AS “THE”.
this is a pretty straight forward prompt, and it was overall pretty easy, but i honestly never paid attention that so many books have the first word as ‘the.’ or at least somewhere in the title.
the happy ever after playlist by Abby Jimenez. i completely loved the first book in the series so much. so, i honestly can’t wait to read this book, since i think it is just going to be so cute and amazing. plus, there is a dog on the cover, so that’s always a plus.
READ A BOOK INSPIRED BY A MOVIE YOU SEEN.
look, i’m not the biggest book to movie watcher, cause i would rather watch tv shows, and like my four tv shows that i watch over and over again. but, i did watch little fires everywhere, but it literally takes at least 6 months, so that’s not gonna happen. so, i kinda cheated with this one.
Cinderella is dead by Kalynn Bayron. like i said, i completely cheated with this one. but, i’ve seen Cinderella countless times, so i guess it might work. and honestly, i got an ARC for this one, and i just never read it cause i was in a reading slump for a couple weeks. anyway, this book is getting a ton of hype, so i think it’s time.
READ THE FIRST BOOK YOU TOUCH
i’m not the biggest fan of prompts like this, cause their is no room to be creative whatsoever. but, i guess i’m kinda cheating cause i have a ton of E ARCS and then an ton of books on libby. so, i decided to pick a book i already started.
after ever happy by Anna Todd. as i currently right this, i’m like 68 pages into it, and i have like 3 days of my hold left. so, i better get reading this book. but, i think that this book isn’t even that good. and i honestly can’t wait to see how shitty it gets.
READ A BOOK COMPLETELY OUTSIDE YOUR HOUSE.
here’s the tea, i am not going to be doing this prompt, or at least read a book outside. i mean, for one, my one neighbor behind me, is a creepy ass man, and he will literally just stare at you for hours, reason one i’m not going outside for hours. then the next neighbor, one to the left of him has these dogs that bark all day. then the neighbors to the left to me is getting a deck, and then my other neighbors have these dogs that also bark all day. so, it’s pretty reasonable why i’m not going outside, so i’ll read a book that takes place outside instead.
clap when you land by Elizabeth Acevedo. this book takes place a good chuck of time outside, in an ocean and then just in a village, so i guess like it’s i’m outside. but, i did read a little bit of this outside when it was like 12 am, so i guess i kinda did do it, but that was way before the actual reading rush.
READ A GENRE YOU WANT TO READ MORE.
i honestly was going to read a fantasy for this, but then i was like, i don’t really like fantasy. i mean, it is always hard for me to get into. so, i deiced to read a YA romance since i’m reading a lot more adult romance recently. so, i guess that’s not total cheating.
maybe this time by Kasie West. holy crap, i am so excited for this book. i love her books so much. i’ve pretty much read all her other books, besides the one that came out mid quarantine, and just never got around to it. so, this one just sounds so amazing and i cannot wait to read this one.
READ A BOOK THAT TAKES PLACE IN A DIFFERENT CONTINENT.
this one was overall kinda hard to find a book that i was interested in that much. i mean, i think a ton of books take place in America, so it was kinda hard to find one that i was really interested in that’s set at Europe, cause that’s what i really wanted to read.
royal holiday by Jasmine Guillory. i already started this, and i think i’m at like 60% and i knew that i had to get it in somewhere in my tbr. and it took me like three days to realize that this book takes place in Europe, not in America. so, i honestly kinda feel like an idiot cause it took me forever to find out.
anyway, that’s it for today. i’m hoping to read at least 7 books this week, but i’m not sure if that is actually going to happen cause i’m reading kinda slower, but i am already reading three books on this list, so it could work if i really try.
