Disclaimer:
I clearly don’t own Pokemon or else this blog would be much nicer and I’d run a
lot of giveaways with my extra money. Plus… I’d kind of be rich.
So the
other day I was stalking checking out my friend Joyce’s wonderful blog Completely Booked and came across the Pokemon Indigo League #ReadThemAll readathon created by
Read At Midnight, that will start on August the 14th and will last
three weeks. The goal is to encourage people to read all kinds of book while
also playing and “competing for points based on the game Pokemon Go.
Even though
the game hasn’t come to my country and HENCE I have absolutely no idea of how
it works, I absolutely loved this challenge! You just have to check out the tasks and you’ll
see why. There are so many different books to read for this!
You can check
the original post here.
Now, my chosen Pokemon will be Zubat purely because it always looks pissed, so I guess we are soulmates *sheds a single tear*
Now onto the tasks!!!!
For this
challenge I want to Read Snow Like Ashes, because it’s a book I’ve been curious
about ever since it came out and yet… I never read it! Why? I don’t know, I
always get distracted with other books.
AAAAAWWWWWW
GAAAAWWWDDD WHYYYY??!!!! As soon as I saw this one, I knew that the book I’d
have to read for it was Dreams of Gods and Monsters. After all, every time I
talk about it I mention how I don’t want to read it because it’ll rip my heart
out, but I guess it’s long overdue… damn series that come to an end!!!!
This one
was a tough one to choose because there were several “hyped” books I wanted to
try, but in the end I settled for Passenger since I’ve had it for a while now
and never read it :O
There were
so many books to read for this one!!! AHHHH how to settle on just one?? But of
course, I had to, so in the end I chose Aristotle and Dante Discover the
Secrets of the Universe, because it’s another book I’ve wanted to read for a
good while and didn’t… for some reason I still don’t understand.
But... how do I even know the romance will be epic before I read it?? Damn it! This one was a though one for me, but finally I settled with Uprooted because it's one book that I've been told a few times it has a great couple!
For fantasy
I had a lot of books I wanted to read (let’s face it, there are a lot of
stories out there I still haven’t tried and who knows how many I’ll get to
read???) but after spending several minutes going back and forth, back and forth,
I settled on The Girl At Midnight because it looks pretty cool and it's compared with Daughter of Smoke and Bone!
Red covers
are hard to find! Especially ones I haven’t already read… but for this
challenge I decided to go with Illuminae. This was a book I tried a couple of
months back but couldn’t get into the format. This time I’m determined to get
to the end! Damn it!
Ok, to get
the Earth Badge I had to do a lot of digging because Post-Apocalyptic it’s not
a genre I’ve been dabbing into lately, but thanks to Goodreads lists I chose
The Immortal Rules. Sure, it has some vampires on it, but Goodreads says it’s
post-apocalyptic so I’m gonna trust it… for now.
And that's it! Will you also be playing? What are you guys planning to read?
