In February I will be participating in my Readathon Effy-A-Thon and Polarthon which is hosted by jadeyraereads.
For Effy-A-Thon I will be reading …
For a book over 500 pages:
A Little Life by Hanya Yanagahara
I don’t know loads about this book but I know it is known for tearing peoples hearts apart. I know it talks about a lot of topics like sexuality, depression, disability and many more issues.
For my least used way of reading:
Little Eyes by Samantha Schweblin (ebook)
I definitely read ebooks less than physical or audiobooks so I chose a book off my kindle for this prompt. This book is about stuffed animals with built in cameras that complete strangers can control. It sounds like a bit of a creepy read and I can’t wait to pick it up.
For my book with the least rating:
Killing Adam – Earik Beann
I don’t remember much about this book, I believe it is a sci-fi book that I got for free on Amazon. It is the book I am reading for this prompt as it only has 267 ratings on goodreads.
For a genre I don’t usually read:
How To – Randall Munroe (non-fic)
This book is scientific answers to real questions. I really enjoyed What If? by the same author last year and really enjoyed it
For a book I’ve been avoiding:
Gone Girl – Gillian Flynn
I tried to read this book in 2017 but really struggled to push through it but I really want to give it another go as I really enjoyed the movie and I have hope that I will enjoy this book on my second attempt.
For Polarthon I am team Walrus.
For the prompts Polar Fantasy and Arctic:
The Eye of the North – Sinéad O’Hart
I got this book from Jade’s polar fantasy recommendation video. I can’t really remember what it is about I remember it sounding extremely interesting.
For cold waters and dive-in:
Death on the Nile – Agatha Christie
This is a Poirot book and I am super excited to read more of Agatha Christie’s writing as it is always fantastic.
For Dark Cover:
Gone Girl – Gillian Flynn
I’m not going to say much about this one as I’ve already covered it.
Other reads.
I am doing a buddy read of The Poppy War in February with a group of friends on discord which I’m super excited for.
I also would like to get around to:
Umbrella Academy vol 1 by Gerard Way
Sadie by Courtney Summers
So that is my February TBR and I am super excited for it even if I have given myself a very busy month ahead.
