Booktube to Blogspot - Christmas BooktubeAThon Day Three and Wrap Up

It is the last day of the Christmas BooktubeAThon! I had so much fun participating in this. This was my first ReadAThon and BooktubeAThon. I didn't reach my goal of reading a book a day, but I did read two books and there's still time today to start my third, but I'm not in any hurry. I really enjoyed the books I read for this readathon- I gave Dash & Lily's Book of Dares by David Levithan and Rachel Cohn four out of five stars. I gave Sisters Red by Jackson Pearce five out of five stars. Something additional I wanted to do was review each book I read for the readathon and I was successful- Dash & Lily's has my review on Goodreads, and I wrote a 5 Star Spotlight for Sisters Red that will be posted here on Paper Worlds and Swirls of Ink sometime in the beginning of January. Currently, I'm reading The Naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. I think this was a smashing success, and even though I don't have a Twitter and so I didn't participate in the sprints, I still really enjoyed seeing all the BooktubeAThon videos everyday. This was a lot of fun and I can't wait until the weeklong summer BooktubeAThon. If you participated, let me know what you ended up reading and what you thought of it!

Booktube to Blogspot - Christmas BooktubeAThon Day 1

In lieu of a Friday Reads (although I guess it is a Friday Reads of sorts...) let's talk about the Christmas BooktubeAThon! Today I completed my goal of reading a book today! Yay! *confetti, various celebratory interludes* So, today I read Dash & Lily's Book of Dares by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan. This was a cute, Christmastime read that was fun and seasonally appropriate with some good writing. The characters and storyline was good, if a bit cliche at points (I'm sorry but I'm very sick of the almost but not quite storyline that has played out in movies, books, etc.) but regardless it was a cute read that entertained me for the day, and I gave it four stars. So, now I am choosing between two books for my read tomorrow. The first is Steelheart by Brandon Sanderson. The second is Sisters Red by Jackson Pearce. I am still figuring out which one I'll read tomorrow, if you have any thoughts please let me know which one you think I should read. I don't plan to review Dash & Lily past a brief review I posted on Goodreads and a feature in my monthly wrap up. 
How goes your Christmas BooktubeAThon-ing? I really love participating in a Read-A-Thon! Let me know how yours is going!
