24 in 48 readathon plans

The 24 in 48 readathon is tonight at 12am on Saturday 27th January until 11:59pm on Sunday 28th January

I usually try to participate in this readathon as much as I can and I always love the challenge, especially as I am someone who struggles to stay focused while reading for long periods of time (ADHD kicking in I think)

Luckily i do have the weekend off and the only thing that i may have to do is take my brother to a party so i may have some reading time there as well

As usual with my readathon TBR I have decided to make a pile that is definitely too big to get through but i make it this way so that I have a lot of choice when i am stuck for what to read next

Three of these books I have already started and I hope to at least finish one of them during the 24 hours

My TBR is:

  1. City of Bones by Cassandra Clare which i am already 196 pages in to
  2. The Elite by Kiera Cass which i am already 114 pages into
  3. Miss Peregrine's home for peculiar children by Ransom Riggs. Currently 106 pages into and i do own the audiobook in case i want to take a break from physically reading a book
  4. The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin
  5. Ruby Red by Kerstin Gier
  6. The Afterlife of Holly Chase by Cynthia Hand
  7. Shatter me by Tahereh Mafi
  8. This Savage Song by V.E Schwab
  9. The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater
  10. The Darkest Minds by Alexandra Bracken

2018 reading plans

2017 wasn't that great of a reading year for me and the thing that I was worst at last year was recording the books that I had actually read

That was why, this year, I have decided to participate in the #Theunreadshelfproject2018, where participants try to read as many of the unread books on their shelves as possible

I have a bad habit of starting books and then never finishing them and I am hoping that this year long readathon will help accomplish this task for me

I do have some other things that I would like to acheive this year reading wise that relate to this challenge for me:

  • I would love to try and read 100 books this year or even more, as well as keeping better track of my reading 
  • I would like to try and read more genres than just YA contemporary and in particular read more fantasy, both YA and adult, as well as try to read more New Adult books
  • To try and buy less books, at least without reading more of the ones that I already own beforehand
  • To finish as many of the series that I already own and have started before starting too many new series
  • My main goal that I will hopefully achieve is to read as many Cassandra Clare books as possible, and try to at least read all the main novels in the Shadowhunter Chronicles
