REVIEW
This was a little cheat- I was already 200 pages into Illuminae before that midnight strike. So I only really read 399 pages.
This covers the challenges 3,4 and 5. Sci-fi is just rarely my thing.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Harry Potter #2)
J.K. Rowling
⭐⭐⭐⭐
I refuse to write a review.
I bought this as a birthday present to myself because I have never owned a full set of the Harry Potter books. Slowly, I will collect these and display them on my phantom bookshelf.
All in their Hardback glory!
Completes challenges 2 and 5.

Review to come!!
Another book that has been on my "Currently-reading" list on Goodreads for what seems like an age.
But, I am glad I finished this. It was just fabulous and a stand-a-lone that I would only wish has a sequel.
*looks up fanfiction*
Completes challenges 1.
Shadow and Bone (The Grisha Trilogy #1)
Leigh Bardugo
⭐⭐⭐
Review to come!!
Not sure what to feel on this book. My thoughts will have to be discussed in my review. But this was a book and series that I will be trying to complete by the end of summer- I'm 1/3 of the way there already!!
This completes the challenge 1 and 3.
*whispers*
For the first time ever I completed all the challenges.
So in total I finished four books with the grand total page count of: 1,715..
Granted I did start a couple of books before the actual read-a-thon. It's a give or take number.
This was fun, let's do it again some time.
