April Reading List

April Reading List

May 1st! May Day. Two days until my birthday! (May 3rd) May is here and with it is the end of April. The end of OWLs. The end of waiting for grad school responses (which sadly were all rejections). And the official end of my one review a week. (I’ve read a few books this month we can say.) Just look at how many books I read this month! So many! Who knew reading challenges would do so much to help me get back into reading?

OWL Readathon

OWL Readathon

Happy Monday Everyone!

I know that I traditionally blog on Wednesdays. Today is not a Wednesday. Today is a Monday. However, I felt a passion to write out something that I discovered just recently that has sparked my interest to read again.

As you may have known, I got into a book slump sometime in February. March was pretty slow for book reviews. I’ve been trying to get myself out of the slump to no avail and then I saw this readathon on Instagram (if you don’t follow me, do @themarlenamarie). It’s the OWL readathon.

Essentially it works with Harry Potter themes, using the O.W.L.s (Ordinary Wizarding Levels) as a prompt. More information here. I love Harry Potter and this readathon really sparked me to want to read more. As such I am going to attempt it to complete it. Not only that but I will be attempting to complete it now more than a week into the month, all while trying to read books I have never read before. (Spoiler IDK If I can).

Some of the books on this list you will notice are not in my preferred genre. That’s because they are my mother’s books. I told her about it and she recommended books. She may be attempting it as well.
