BookTube-A-Thon is a seven day reading marathon in the YouTube book community. It starts at 12am (wherever you are) on the 14th of June to the 21st. Basically, the idea is to read as much as you can while also completing the 7 challenges (and having fun!). There are also video challenges where you upload an update video each day for seven days. That’s….really difficult to do considering you have to read then film, edit, and upload a video each day.
Anyway, here are the reading challenges:
- A book with pictures
- Start and finish a series
- A book with red on the cover
- A book someone else picks out for you
- A book from the genre you’ve read the least this year
- A book to movie adaptation
- Read seven books
This is my first time participating and I’m really excited! So without further ado, here are the books I will be reading for the BookTube-A-Thon:
1. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button Graphic Novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald, illustrated by Kevin Cornell
2. Eon: Dragoneye Reborn and Eona: The Last Dragoneye (duology) by Allison Goodman
3. Dorothy Must Die by Danielle Page
4 & 6. The Perks of Being A Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
5. Carrie by Stephen King
If I finish all these books and still have time for another to complete the seventh challenge, then I will probably be reading Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead. That book has been sitting on my shelf for almost a year! If you want to participate, please do! This will be fun!
