The Reading Rush 2019 Wrap Up

On By Dearna_MulvaneyIn Reading ChallengeLeave a comment

Hello,

And The Reading Rush is over for another year! It always feels like it’s too short.

The Reading Rush is a one-week reading challenge from the 22 July to 28 July. It’s hosted by Ariel Bissett and Raeleen May.

I really enjoyed the addition of the official website this year. I loved that it created a graph to track your reading and that you got badges for each challenge you complete. 

I didn’t have the most successful reading week and didn’t read as much as I wished. I finished three of the reading prompts and two bonus prompts!

On By Dearna_MulvaneyIn TRBLeave a comment

Hello,

This year marks the second year of the N.E.W.T.s readathon which is hosted on BookTube by G from Book Roast. It’s a month long Harry Potter themed readathon where each for each book you read, will go towards your N.E.W.T exams. This is a continuation of the O.W.L.s readathon which happened in April.

Unlike with the O.W.L.s were you are only required to complete one book per subject, in the N.E.W.Ts you may be required to read multiple books per subject to prove your skill. Each subject in the N.E.W.Ts will contain three prompts, each for a specified grade. The grades are Acceptable (A), Exceeded Expectations (E) and Outstanding (O).

This is a sequel; I will try and keep my review as spoiler free as possible but just be wary if you haven’t read the rest of the series.
