March Readathon
Happy March 1st! I feel spring inching closer so I have decided to do a Spring Readathon this weekend. It’s been a very difficult week so I need a weekend to enjoy some good reading. I have been having a hard time reading this week so I have started way too many books so I want to settle down and enjoy them. If you would like to join me this weekend please do so! No rules! Just read! These are the books I am currently reading.
Saturday
I had a fantastic first day of reading for the Spring readathon! I started out reading Bloodmarked. I have been rereading the Legendborn books to get ready for the release of Oathbound on Tuesday. And let me tell you this series is even better the second time around. There isn’t one moment of the books that lag or get boring.
The day continued to warm up so I took advantage and set up my hammock and read outside until shockingly it got too hot. My dog also enjoyed frolicking around while I read.
I finished one book: While We’re Young by K.L. Walther. This was such a fun retelling of Ferris Bueller’s Day Out! I love a book that covers only one day! This one made me laugh and cheer. It also had done lovely emotional moments as week. I am so, so glad there are still authors writing meaningful young adult contemporaries!
I spent the rest of the day alternating between my different cozy reading spots and the six books I am reading.
I did accidentally doom scroll for almost two hours which impacted my reading AND my mental health. I am determined to go back to my everything but book Instagram social media ban tomorrow. The whole point of the readathon is to shut down and relax before Monday.

I am not tracking total reading time like I usually do but that’s just because I forgot to 😂 So I think that’s a sign that the Spring Readathon will not be a time tracker but just pages and audiobooks.

Sunday
Happy Sunday and day two of my spring Readathon! The temperature today is ten degrees less than yesterday so I am actually hoping to be able to be outside more. Looking forward to a relaxing day. These are the books I am currently reading.
So as you can see I am reading a lot of books. But as I settled down and started reading there was a book calling my name that I really wanted to read. And finally I gave in. Do you ever have a book you are afraid to read because you don’t want it to one day to be over? This was me with Can’t Get Enough by Kennedy Ryan. But I decided it was time. Loving it so far. I am trying to savor it and not rush through.
It was a lovely and relaxing day reading and relaxing.
