Even though the Tome Topple Read-A-Thon doesn’t officially end until 11:59pm tonight, I thought I would go ahead and post my wrap-up for it. I know I won’t be finishing my book in time before it ends, so why not go ahead and face the inevitable – right?
If you would like to find out more about this read-a-thon, you can visit my original post HERE.
Books I Finished or Currently Reading
- Queen of Shadows (Throne of Glass, #4) by Sarah J. Maas (648 pages)- completed, review coming Saturday
- Empire of Storms (Throne of Glass, #5) by Sarah J. Maas (693 pages) – currently on page 255
Unread = FAILURE
- Moon Chosen (Tales of a New World, #1) by P.C. Cast (608 pages)
- The Secret History by Donna Tartt (523 pages)
Okay, I know I did HORRIBLY with this read-a-thon. I mean, I really bit the big one this time. But, in my defense, I was a week late getting started on it due to finishing up 2 other books first. Also, I work from 9-5 every day because I’m a big girl and have to be an adult… BOOOOO! This whole adult thing really cuts into my reading time. I envy those of you still in school or don’t have to work!
Anyways, I’m hoping that there might be a holidays read-a-thon going on during the week of Christmas/New Year, because I’m taking my vacation that week and plan to do a shit ton of reading. So if you know of one – please let me know!
Did you participate in the Tome Topple Read-A-Thon? How much were you able to read? Did you make it through your entire TBR? Have you read any of the books that were on my list?

Don’t beat yourself up about it!! It’s so hard not to feel pressured when you set yourself these kinds of challenges (I feel like my bookshelf is looking at me from across the room) but adult life is super difficult to juggle with reading and even four books is a big deal x

Thank you! It really is so hard to participate in these read-a-thon and challenges. I do it because they’re fun but then I always complain when I don’t meet my goal lol. Life just isn’t fair sometimes haha!

I can’t even read as fast as most of the people out there, adding in all the workload we could have that aren’t book related… damn. Totally understand the lack of time to complete these “challenges”! You still managed to read 2 pretty popular books though! That’s awesome. 😛

Congrats on managing to read some books, even if you didn’t get through as many as you’d hoped! Do you think you’ll set up your own personal holiday read-a-thon goal, if you can’t find an official one?
Looking forward to hearing about everything you read while on vacation!

And I haven’t thought about it but that’s actually a good idea! If I don’t come across anything in the next week or so then I just might do that. Thanks, Liam! 😊
