I'm determined to turn over a new leaf with the coming year. I want to read more, scrapbook more, and spend more time with my family. To start with these goals, I've joined the Cram-a-thon. Here are the challenges and my TBR:
1. Book under 200 pages - Inconvenient Murder by Amanda A. Allen (An Inept Witches Mystery) I started this at midnight and so far I'm 30 percent finished. I picked this because it was on my Kindle and the first book I found under 200 pages that I already owned. I'm not loving it, but I plan on finishing it.
2. Book with LGBTQ representation - Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo I've heard great things about this book and want to add it to my book-give-away pile at school, but I feel like I should read it before giving it away.
3. Book with my favorite color on the cover - The Hearts We Sold by Emily Lloyd-Jones I've actually already started this a few weeks ago, but my hope is to finish it during this week. It's also a book I would like to give away.
4. Book recommended by a friend - This challenge is really for reading a favorite book by the four hosts of this readathon, but I don't have any of those books, so instead I'm reading A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman which was recommended to me by my friend Shannon.
5. Shortest book in my TBR pile - Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon Another book I want to give away to my students.
6. A book that was gifted to me - The Boy A Holocaust Story by Dan Porat My mom bought me this book this summer, and I think it's the only book I own that's been gifted to me.
The last challenge is to read 7 books, but I'm a realist. I know I'm going to be lucky to get two or three of these books read since all of them are rather hefty. Here is a link to the video that announced cramathon. It gives all the details of it for you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8ZrrBz6_eE&t=7s
