Hey, guys! Today I start a quick read-a-thon with one of my dear friends and we have a week to read five books. It’s my first read-a-thon ever and three of the five books are in Portuguese, two in English. So we both decided to read the Neil Gaiman books from our lists, cause it was something in common in our tbr pile/jar/shelf/something. She’ll read The Ocean at the End of the Lane, and I will read American Gods. Cause it’s sitting in my shelf for ages. And I adore Neil Gaiman.
The other book in English is Dracula, by Bram Stoker. I’ve read it in Portuguese when I was younger, but it was so long ago that I only remember the plot. Yup, I have a terrible memory. And the three last ones, not in any particular order: Miss Peregrine’s Home For Peculiar Children – Ransom Riggs, Digital Fortress – Dan Brown and The Casual Vacancy – J.K. Rowling.
I’m very excited to start, because I’ve been hearing of read-a-thons for a few months now, and I want to be a part of all of them.Not that this will be entirely possible, because I’ll be studying full time this year. But yeah, I hope it works out. May I tell you something I might have already said? I’m lazy. Not just lazy… Lazy. And I’m lying in my bed right now, too lazy to get my laptop, writing with my mobile WordPress app. Yeah. I think I’m gonna go now. I’m waiting for Caroline – my awesome book companion, she’s working. She’s not lazy. Goodbye!

Your book choices sound really good! I’ve read both Dracula and The Casual Vacancy so I’d really like to hear what you think of them. Good luck with your read-a-thon 🙂

Gee, thanks! It’s being constantly interrupted by things like university preparations, my grandmother and some duties (both mine and my friend’s), but it’s being fun so far. We had to delay it twice… Well, anyway, thank you!
