Formerly known as Booktube-A-Thon, the annual Reading Rush has commenced beginning today! The “Rush” will take place from July 22 – July 28 and I am excited that I have finally settled on my 7 books that I plan on (hopefully) finishing by the end of the week! As always, there are also the challenges (7 of them) that I will list out and will let you all know which book I chose to coincide with each.
Also, feel free to check out the website and sign up to earn badges, get updates, & keep track of your reading!

… May have bitten off more than I can chew with these reads, but who knows, maybe I’ll get to finish all seven by the end of this. I’m also excited to participate in some of the Instagram & Twitter challenges!
