Hi Friends,
Summerween has begun! To be totally transparent, I didn’t really read much at all on the first day of the readathon. That’s fine, though, because the readathon has only just started, so I have plenty of time to read my TBR. Let’s just hope the rest of my reading week goes better.
I spent the morning taking care of my fur babies, as usual. Then I got sucked into TikTok for way too long. I managed to read a bit of A Tempest of Tea with my morning coffee, even though it’s not a readathon book. Also, since it was Saturday, I wasn’t very productive. I was fully in weekend mode. Still, I wanted to tackle one prompt. I picked the “read a book in the dark” one because I sometimes stay up late on weekends.
Around 10 pm, I finally started reading Hide by Kiersten White. I chose this as my first read because it’s on my July TBR, fulfills several prompts, and the audiobook is fairly short. Despite only being 6% into the book, I’m already captivated. What I love about Kiersten White’s books is that they always grab me from the start. Although, the story seems like it will follow a lot of characters, and I’m unsure if I’ll enjoy so many perspectives. Still, based on the small amount I’ve read, I’m liking the plot.
Little Moments From The Day
• I watched some Summerween TBR videos, and you should too if you’re stuck on what to read! You can also check out my Summerween TBR!
• I did a short 10 minute cardio walking workout, because I have to move my body in someway every day.
• For a late-night snack, I treated myself to a Hershey chocolate bar. This week I’ll make s’mores, but it was a chocolate bar kind of night.
• My soundtrack for the evening was a snow ambience video on YouTube with just snow sounds and a crackling fire. It really helped set the fall vibes.
That’s a wrap for Day 1. While it might not have been the most successful or eventful day, I don’t mind easing into the readathon. Hopefully, my reading will pick up and I will do more Halloween-type things as the week goes on. If you enjoyed this post, please like and share it with other readers.
