Wicked Wildfire Read-a-Thon: Start + Goals + Reading List + Mini Challenges + Update + Wrap Up!

   

So, it's time for the Wicked Wildfire Read-a-Thon!
 

This is my 3rd time participating in this particular read-a-thon (though I don't know which time when it comes to all the WWReadathons).

The Wicked Wildfire Read-a-Thon is hosted by April & Kat @ My Shelf Confessions!

  

  

The read-a-thon started today @ 12:01 AM EST (06:01 AM for me) & will end on June 24 @ 11:59 PM EST (for me @ 05:59 AM on June 25).

 

   For more info & to sign up, visit the post HERE!

 
   The sign up will be open until midnight EST on July 22nd.

 
   On Twitter as always we'll use #WWReadathon.

And of course there will be 2 Twitter Parties:

- Twitter Party 1: Saturday, July 19th: 2:30 – 4:00 pm EST (8:30 to 10 pm for me)

- Twitter Party 2: Tuesday 22nd: 6:30 - 8 pm EST (00:30 - 2 am for me)

   

And of course there will be mini challenges!
 

What I'll be reading?

 
I'll choose my reads according to my mood, but first I'm planning to finish (and probably will today):

  

...as for what I'll be reading after: some of my possible NetGalley reads are:

  

... though I will probably stray from this list (as always).

 

My Goals:

- to read;

- to participate in a Twitter Party;

- to participate in min 2 challenges;

- to have lots of fun.

 

I'll just update this post with my progress!

That's my picture puzzle. What's the book title?

Update #1:

I just realised I forgot to update this post with my reading progress. So far, I participated in 4 of the 5 mini challenges, joined near the end of the first Twitter Party, finished the previously started Half a King, and read He's So Fine, the novella Loving Mindy by Karen Erickson & The One Safe Place by Tania Unsworth. I also started 3 other books, from which I'm hoping to finish Cat Clarke's Undone first. Even though I totally strayed from my reading list (as always), at least I'm making a dent in my NetGalley pile. I'm also planning to join the 2nd Twitter Party today.

Wrap Up:

Ok, so, I didn't do as great as I hoped, but near the end of the read-a-thon I got into a reading slump & a blogging slump, so I kinda gave up on reading & the read-a-thon itself. But, before this happened, I finished the previously started book Half a King, and read 2 more novels & one novella:

I also started a few others, and I participated in the 4 of the mini challenges, and joined the 2 Twitter Parties.
