Hello everyone! I am going to be attempting to participate in this #MakeMeRead Readathon from July 9th to July 16th! I just recently found this readathon while on Twitter and thought that it was such a great idea. The Make Me Read It Read-A-Thon is hosted by Ely at Tea and Titles and Val at The Innocent Smiley. You can use the hashtag #MakeMeRead on Twitter and Instagram too! Read below for more info on the Read-A-Thon.
Look at the books you own, either physical, e-book or ones you’ve borrowed from the library and pick out a few you really want to read, or feel like you should read. It’s up to you how many you pick, personally I’d pick a few more than you expect to be able to read in a week. Example: if you think you’ll only read two, pick out five books or if you think you can read seven, pick out ten.
Make a list of these books on your blog, or make a video, or a Goodreads shelf or post a picture on Instagram—whatever is easiest for you. Then get friends, other bloggers/booktubers etc. to vote on which books you HAVE to read.
When the read-a-thon comes along, you read the books in the order of most votes. For example, if one book gets 10 votes—you read that first, then the one that got 7 and so on. If there’s a tie, then it’s your preference. The goal is to read as many as possible.
Sounds fun doesn't it?! I can't wait for the week to start but I'm kind of having trouble picking out some books. I'm not quite sure how many I will read that week but I'm thinking that you can pick up to 3 books for me to read. I'll also show my TBR on YouTube over at my Booktube channel if you want to hear what I have to say about each book. All of these books have been published with the exception of Nevernight by Jay Kristoff which is an e-arc!
I'll put the covers of the books with links to the Goodreads pages down below!
Thanks so much for helping out and let me know if you are participating, what book you think I should read, or if you want to participate now!
I chose Nevernight as the poll wouldn't let me choose multiple titles... but here's a shout out for Slammed as well! :) Hope you have awesome fun with the Readathon!
ReplyDeleteThank you for voting! I just realized that I didn't enable the multiple choices so hopefully it's fixed now. :)
DeleteWelcome! And yay! Looks like it is taking multiple selections now. I'll go ahead and put in a vote for Slammed as well. :D
DeleteI voted for The Winner's Crime! I read the entire series last week for another readathon and I really liked it. I hope you enjoy the books that win!

Thank you for voting! I've heard so many great things about The Winner's Crime and The Winner's Kiss. Hopefully I'll be able to pick it up. :)
DeleteI voted for Nevernight, The Rose and the Dagger and The Forbidden Wish as I am really curious about those myself. Happy reading~
ReplyDeleteThank you for voting! Really curious about those three too. :)
DeleteI voted for Nevernight for you too. Also, The Rose and the Dagger and With Malice. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for voting! Looks like Nevernight and The Rose and the Dagger are pretty popular. :)
DeleteI voted for the Rose and the Dagger! I just read it and loved it (although not as much as the first book in the series). What's your opinion on the Wrath and the Dawn?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the vote! I really enjoyed The Wrath and the Dawn and the ending had me so excited for the next book! I can't wait to read The Rose and the Dagger though and hopefully I'll enjoy it too. :)
DeleteI picked The Winner's Crime, Falling Kingdoms, and The Rose and The Dagger! I haven't gotten the chance to read any of them yet, but I'm really looking forward to it. :-)

ReplyDeleteShaheen @ Speculating on SpecFic
No problem! Thanks for voting here. :) I'm so intrigued by Nevernight and I hope that I really love it too!
DeleteI chose The Rose and The Dagger because I've been dying to actually pick up my audiobook and finish this series!
ReplyDeleteHave fun during the Readathon! I hope you'll have an awesome time!

Thank you for voting! I'm dying to finish the series but also kinda scared, haha. :)
DeleteOh no, how do i choose with so many great choices?? :D I voted for With Malice & I'll be Yours. Heard good thing about both. :) Thanks for coming by Bemused Bookworm and voting. :)
ReplyDeleteHaha, I know what you mean! Thank you for voting and I can't wait to see what ends up winning. :)
DeleteI think I wanted to vote for half your list, haha! Great choices. I ended up going for Nevernight, because I'm really curious for that one, Falling Kingdoms and The Forbidden Wish. I own the last two so I've skimmed a few reviews about them and they sound like nice reads as well. Can't wait to see which books you're going to read, have fun!
ReplyDeleteHaha, thank you for voting! Falling Kingdoms and The Forbidden Wish do sound interesting and I'm glad that I'm getting a push to finally read all these books! :)

ReplyDeleteI voted for the first three books on your list! The Winner's Crime is the only one I've read of those choices and is absolutely amazing! I recently reread it this year to gear up for The Winner's Kiss. ^_^
ReplyDeleteFalling Kingdoms is also on my #MakeMeRead list! Doesn't look like it will win though, so looking forward to getting to it before/after. The Rose and the Dagger is also on my general wishlist TBR so fingers crossed my school library will have it this fall!
Happy reading!
Thank you for voting!
DeleteI'm looking forward to reading The Winner's Crime and The Winner's Kiss because I've heard such great things about them! :)
Fingers crossed for you and The Rose and the Dagger. I know what it's like to have to wait for an anticipated book to come into the library, haha. :D
all of my choices landed in the middle xD

ReplyDeleteThank you much for voting! I'll definitely check yours out! :)
DeleteI haven't read most of those books myself, so it was super hard to vote for three. Hope you enjoy the winning books.
ReplyDeleteThank you for voting! :D
DeleteI've heard such great things about The Winner's Crime. Enjoy your reads!
ReplyDeleteI'd love if you would vote on my list! :) - http://www.smilingshelves.com/home/make-me-read-it-readathon-vote-please
I've heard great things about the Winner's Crime too. :) Thank you for voting! I'll check out your list :)
DeleteI voted for Forbidden Wish and Winner's Crime because this are two books that I have as well, but have yet to read them. I hope you enjoy the picks.
