The Make Me Read It Readathon is hosted by The Innocent Smiley and Tea & Titles. You can sign up HERE, and follow along with the #makemereadit hashtag on Twitter!
Basically, you take a poll and everyone else gets to decide what you should read. I love this idea! Brilliant! *claps hands*
The vote
Okay, so here’s what my final poll results looked like:
As you can see, CoHF won by a freaking tidal wave!!
The books
My goal: 3 books OR 1,200 pages
I’d set it higher, but let’s be honest here. With City of Heavenly fire being a 700 page behemoth, I’ll be lucky to get that far! So I’m making my goal 3 books OR 1,200 pages. That’s a bit more manageable for me with a full time job, boyfriend, a small zoo, and a house to keep up with haha. If I can get to Star-Touched Queen, epic, if not, no biggie. No pressure, just read! I don’t do well with pressure *sheepish grin*

I am so unbelievably proud of myself for actually making it through all three books this week (and that’s starting two days late!). Even more proud that I read a 700 page book in 3 days, and knocked out nearly 400 pages in one day alone! *pats self on back*
