Well, it's almost 2am here... Off to bed. Managed 2:53 reading time. Luckly I took a screenshot of my first stretch... My stopwatch reset itself soon after 🤯 Finished 2 books that I had been reading lately... Painted by Kirsten McKenzie, and Shadows Fall by Simon R Green (finally) #24in48 #24in48readathon

Finished this in 1 sitting. Though I have mixed feelings about the ending... It was an incredibly interesting read. Especially for an Austen fan. #JaneAustenforever #singlesittingread #interesting

#AugustLibrary17

Day 1 - TBR
My TBR pile this month is smaller than usual, I'm starting university next month, after 16 years of being out of school. So, I'm busy preparing for that. I'm really looking forward to reading "How to Hang a Witch" ☺️ I've heard good things, and the book trailer was awesome!

To celebrate Harry's Birthday, a tad late... Oops!, here's a peak at my small collection of the 1st book in multiple languages ☺️ I was shocked to find that Harry Potter would be older than me... by 3 years. #happybirthdayharrypotter #languagebooks #harrypotter

All Our Wrong Todays | Elan Mastai

DONE ☺️ Finished 3 books... almost 4, and most of my audiobook. That was fun! Won a prize, but sadly all of the international ones were claimed... bit of a downer. I might participate again, but it depends on how equal things are for international readers.
READ: Animal Farm, Warp, and Dusk or dark or dawn or day, and 3/4 of All our wrong todays.
Audiobook: Shadows Fall (2/3 done)
BAILED ON: Gutshot, The blue fox.
