New adventure

Pages read: 774
Pages read this week: 352
Books read: 3
Yesterday I came across a bunch of book-tubers talking about a read-athon that starts July 15th and goes until the 21st.  I did a bit of digging and found that it has become a major force not only on youtube but also on twitter and it is a challenge that everyone can do.  The read-athon is broken up into different challenges; the main challenge is to read 300 pages on average a day (2100 pages in a week) then some of the other challenges are to read a book that is 500+, re-read on book, finish a series, read a book that has been on your shelf for along time, listen to an audio book, read a classic, and as a bonus try to combine as many challenges as you can.  This read-athon is going to be incredibly challenging but I'm excited for it!  Here is my list of what I'm planning on reading starting Monday.  (as you can see it includes books from the bucket list challenge! Two birds with one stone!)
1.  Inkheart by Cornelia Funke (read one book that is 500+ and re-read one books)
2.  The Fire by James Patterson (finish a series)
3.  A Wold Without Heroes (Beyonders) by Brandon Mull
4.  Listen to an audio book: Still haven't figured that out...
5.  The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells (classic book)
