I’m loving the reading rush so far, I’ve read 700 pages, finished two books and earned 4 badges!
Let’s break it down day by day…

Day 1 – Monday

I started with Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde as this was only 70 pages and I will able to finish it within 2 sittings. I was a little disappointed in this book, however I think it’s because this is such a classic and I’m not used to the writing style. It was really interesting to read the original story of Jekyll and Hyde, I just wish there had been a little explanation as to why it happened. I rated this 3*.
This earned me the badge of read a book with over five words in the title.
I then started to read Part of your world by Liz Braswell, I read 90 pages of this before heading to bed.
Once in bed I started to read Manipulated Lives by H. A. Leuschel, as this is the book I’m reading for the challenge of reading a book in the same spot the entire time. I managed 50 pages, this is a collection of stories true to life of those who have been manipulated. It probably wasn’t the best day to start this as this first story hit a raw nerve.
In total I read 210 pages today.
Day 2 – Tuesday

We rehomed a dog! So I didn’t get as much reading done as I would have liked but Noah has now found himself a best friend in Holly our 1 year old beagle.
I did manage to read another 200 pages of Part of your world (in between chasing her around the back garden multiple times with my bookmark and book sleeve).
In total I read 210 pages again today.
Day 3 – Wednesday

I definitely made more progress today, I finished my second book of the week, Part of Your World. This earned me the badge of read a book with purple on the cover, I gave it 3.5* I had big expectations that it just didn’t meet.
After this I started Misery by Stephen King, I’m only 60 pages in and I’m really loving it! I can’t wait to carry on with it tomorrow. This is for the challenge of reading a book that you meant to read last year.
I also read another 20 pages of Manipulated Lives in bed.
I managed to read 280 pages today.
I’m so excited for the rest of the week, how are you doing?
See you in the next one…

This is my first reading rush and I’ve loved it. Read so much and given me the motivation to read more. Congrats on your progress. 🙂
