1k pages readathon - December 2021
HI BESTIES
back by popular (?) demand, the 1000 pages Readathon “i really have no idea what” Edition! 
you know the drill by now: read 1000 pages (or more!) in 10 days :) it can be one book, 15, 3, pick a number, be a rebel
when is this taking place: december 17th to december 26th
what happens if i don’t hit the goal: kittens will cry (i’m kidding, pls don’t feel pressured, just read for the sake of reading and have fuuuun)
what tag are we using: #1kpagesdec21
i have more questions about this: shoot me a message, i’m very friendly in a non-threatening way
can’t wait to see us all scramble to hit the goal and then cry
cookies,
Mary
P.S. Totes cool to spread the word!
P.P.S. If you want to challenge yourself, use these prompts (the same book can cover multiple prompts):
* A book you’ve been putting off for more than a year
* Reread a favourite book
* Read a book from a genre you don’t normally read
* Read a diverse/own voices book
* Read the final book in a series you haven’t finished
* Read a book with a trope you love

1k pages readathon - December 2021

Tumblr media
I’ve already finished several, so i’m left with these four, and their pages total 1020! going to start with upright women wanted, both because it looks fun and because it’s shorter so i can get a confidence boost early on 😂 good luck and godspeed to anyone participating!

Picked my books for the readathon! I haven't read these and it seemed appropriate to read them now.
Is everyone ready for tomorrow?

1K Pages Readathon Day 2 Update
Butters decided he wanted to read Vanity Fair too! 💕 (He then tried to nibble on the corner.)
I’m moving quite slowly over here. I didn’t read as much yesterday or today as I thought I would. Instead, I slept from 11:30am to 4:00pm today...I honestly have no excuse for that. I didn’t even feel that tired. But I’ve made it through a chunk of each book I’ve started. And I’ll probably read more tonight since I’m not tired at all now...
These Violent Delights - 305/460 pages (64 read during the readathon)
Vanity Fair - 48/680 pages
The Diaries of Hannah Cullwick - 53/302
Thorn - not started
Mindhunter - not started
Total pages: 165

17.12.2021 - I’ve spent the day cleaning, reading, and watching Wheel of Time*. It's been so nice and chill!
I'm participating in the 1kpagesdec2021 readathon for the next 10 days so here's my progress:
Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor - 267/418
The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins - 40/626
Total: 307
*Has anyone commented yet on how STUNNING the opening credits are for this series?! It's possibly beating Black Sails for my favourite title sequence. The whole thing is a work of art and I NEED a print of this image of the ajahs.
Currently reading: too many books to list because I'm irresponsible... Oops.

1kpagesdec21 | Day 1
Today I started reading Portrait of a Murderer: A Christmas Crime Story by Anne Meredith. It was a coincidence seeing that the readathon starts today. My goal is to finish this novel. If I succeed, I will add another book. I would like to finish some of the books that I have already started by the end of this year.
Pages read today: 80/343

The books I've picked out to read for @books-and-cookies 1k readathon!! Two are old favorites of mine, that really touched me and became something special for me, but I've never reread them. I think I'm at a place where i could really use that comfort and opportunity for introspection. The third (bottom one) is one I've been putting off reading for a long time.. a very long time.. it's embarrassing how long.
Regardless, I hope y'all enjoy following along!! I legitimately can't remember the last time I fully, properly read a book, and this came at just the perfect time in my schedule to maybe help me get this back into my life. Starting tonight, and wish me luck!!

1K Pages Readathon Dec 2020 - Day one
I’m participating in @books-and-cookies’ readathon from 12/17 to 12/26.
The goal is to read 1000 pages, and hopefully I will be able to do it this time as I’ve submitted my assignments for this semester and I’m done with work until the new year 😁. I basically I want to finish all the books I’ve started and left untouched for months and a few Christmas reads. Here’s my TBR/update:
If the fates allow by Rainbow Rowell (38/38 pages read) reread today after reading it 2 days ago 😂
In a Holidaze by Christina Lauren (45/337 pages read pre Readathon )
The Once and Future Witches by Alix E. Harrow (103/517 pages read - pre Readathon)
The Road Trip by Beth O’Leary (210/414 pages read pre Readathon. I could have sworn I finished this but apparently not 😂)
Page count so far: 38/1000

1K Pages Readathon - Day 3
The first time you share tea, you are a stranger.
The second time you share tea, you are an honored guest.
The third time you share tea, you become family.
Of all the things, I did not expect this book to discuss tea. Considering how dreadful the theme of the book is, I'm pleasantly surprised that the story is so calming.
Read today: 88

I read
90 pages of The Thursday Murder Club, most of it in bed #sleepyreadingdecember (which is going well this month @myonetruebook even if I’ve not been blogging about it!)
15 pages (ebook) of Howl’s Moving Castle (which is a buddy-read with @reyofseokshine, and I’m really loving this book and our discussions which mainly consists of us sending our favourite quotes back and forth it’s great)
Page count: 143/1000

1kpagesdec21 day 6
got my pages in before work today! really enjoying this book—it’s making me want to dig more into the world building of my own ghost story, because the rules of the road that the author sets up are so cool, and so perfect for the story
total pages: 635

#1kPagesDec21
well, I got through a decent amount of QoAaD today but The Goblin Emperor just wasn’t working for me :( it was worth giving it another shot, I just wasn’t connecting to the characters and with the slow plot, there wasn’t enough to hold my attention. I do have one of the author’s other books on loan from the library so maybe I’ll like that better. I also tried Highly Illogical Behaviour, which has been on my TBR since 2017, but it was too much telling not enough showing. halfway mark now though so I hope everyone else is going okay :D
December 21st:
Queen of Air and Darkness by Cassandra Clare - 187 pages
The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison - 42 pages - DNF
Highly Illogical Behaviour by John Corey Whaley - 49 pages - DNF
Total pages: 1,273 pages
