Sci-Fi Summer Read-a-Thon: Start + Wrap Up!

 
Sci-Fi Summer Read-a-Thon is hosted by Michelle a.k.a The True Book Addict at her read-a-thon dedicated blog Seasons of Reading!
 
The read-a-thon started today - Thursday, June 1st at midnight CDT and ends on Wednesday, June 7th at 11:59 pm CDT.
 
For me, that's 5 am on June 1st, and 4:59 am on June 8th.

I missed last year's sci-fi read-a-thon (then again, I've missed lots of read-a-thons the last couple of years). Anyway, this time I'm in! I hope to read lots, but if I manage to read one book, I'll actually be happy. As to the reading list, I'll keep it simple. I'll try to read some of the sci-fi classics, maybe some H. G. Wells, and I really hope to re-read again Ready Player One, too.


Happy reading everyone!!!
 
 
 

 Wrap Up:

  
 
So, overall, it was a good read-a-thon, but I really wish I read more.
 
I finally read H.G. Wells's The Time Machine, and I absolutely loved it. I don't know why I always thought I won't like it, but I was wrong. And now I can't wait to read more of his works.
  
I also finished rereading Neil Gaiman's American Gods. It's a fantasy, but I had to finish it, and of course I loved it once again.
 
I did start another book - Storm Thief by Chris Wooding, but even though I loved what I read, I only managed to read a 3rd of the book before the read-a-thon ended, but it's one enjoyable mix of sci-fi & fantasy. So, yes, it was a good read-a-thon!
