I’M SO EXCITED FOR THIS YOU GUYS. I’m going to admit, I’m pretty behind on ARC August. Yay procrastination! I was hoping for a readathon to use as an excuse to catch up on some reading, so this one came at the perfect time!

The last readathon I did was #makemereadit and I managed to read just over 1,500 pages. So, I’m going to aim for that again!

Goals

• Finish current reads (Metaltown, Furthermore)
• Read 2-4 more books OR 1,500 2,000 pages total
• Read a little bit every day

Progress

I’ll keep my progress updated daily here!

Today’s notes: The brutal cat mutilation in The Hawkweed Prophecy caused a pretty bad setback for me today. I waffled a lot over whether or not to pick it back up again, as I was enjoying it in the beginning, but every time I tried I got upset all over again. I wasted a lot of time procrastinating about it so now I won’t finish a book today like I had hoped to :(
