Hi, friends! I have had so much fun the past week participating in the Reading Rush! I have participated in the Reading Rush (formerly Booktubeathon) for 3 years now, and this year was by far the most fun I've had. I loved the new website, participating more on Twitter, and all the books that I read! I feel super accomplished this year, as I did pretty well! I didn't put too much pressure on myself, I just read as much as I could while still enjoying myself. Overall, I think I did pretty well considering that I worked two days this week and did some wedding planning stuff this weekend! Here are my final stats: (images are from my profile on the Reading Rush website. They did an awesome job designing!)

Hi, friends! We are officially (a bit over) halfway through the Reading Rush for 2019! What a fun time it has been so far. I wanted to check in with you guys about how my reading is going thus far, what badges I've earned, how many books I've completed, etc. I am actually really happy with my progress as I did have to work all day on Tuesday and Wednesday this week, so I think I've done well all things considered! This picture is my little nod to today's booktube video challenge to show off your book nook. This is the spot that I have done the vast majority of my reading this week as well as just always. I love my Pride and Prejudice pillow, my back rest, and my (not in the picture) pink bedside lamp from Target! Okay, onward to what I have read! Here are my stats so far: Number of books read: 2  Fullmetal Alchemist volumes 7-9 by Hiromu Arakawa Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan Badges earned: 8  2019 Reading Rush reader  Read a book with purple on th

Hello, friends! Long time, no see! I have not been very active on my blog or on Twitter because school is just crazy, and I can never keep up during the school year. I know that it has been like half the summer by now, but I just felt like I really needed this break. I have just been enjoying the time to relax and read! BUT, I am super excited to finally be writing a blog post again! I have decided to participate in The Reading Rush this year, formally known as Booktubeathon. I am so excited that they have rebranded to include even more of the bookish community, so we can all come together and participate! The Reading Rush will be happening July 22 at midnight in your timezone through July 28! There are Youtube video challenges if you have a channel, Bookstagram challenges if you have Instagram, and lots of fun reading sprints over on their Twitter! You can follow them @TheReadingRush and join in on the fun!  ALSO, they have created a really cool website this year where yo
