30 Day GONE Challenge - DAY ONE

Hey guys, it's Alexia here :D

As I've finished the Gone Series I thought I would do the challenges over 30 days. Doing this won't affect how often I update.

Day One - Your Favourite Book

Hmm, I'm not sure whether to say the first book 'Gone', or the last book 'Light'. I think I'd  properly have to say 'Light', just because Michael Grant ended it so well, each of the characters each having their own little section and it was so good and I haad goose bumps reading it.

Michael Grant and Andrew Smith book event

Hey guys, Alexia here. How are you all?

I'm writing to you from Waterstones Piccalilly and I'm waiting for the event to start. I may or may not have come an hour and a half early... opps.

I'm really excited, my BZRK trilogy has come this morning, but I didn't bring it as I already bought with me the Gone series and The Marbury Lens by Andrew Smith (I ordered Passenger the second book in the Marbury Lens series but it hasn't come yet :( ), and I'm not going to bring over 10 books with me - plus the ones I'm going to buy (only two).

I'm a bit nervous, as it's only me and my mum and there are going to be a lot of others and I don't know how many books Michael Grant will actually sign..

I was so happy to see that Michael (or should I go by surname and say Grant?) Is going to come back to the UK in spring so if I don't have all the books signed I'll bring the unsigned books to that one.

Hey guys, it is a few days later and I thought the event was brilliant! Michael Grant was so nice and polite and it was so cool. Andrew Smith was awesome as well and I really related to him and his personality and I was very happy.

Me being me, left the first book of the Gone series, 'Gone', in the bag, so it remains unsigned.... oh well.

I'm so sorry for the lack of updating, but I thought I did post something, and had to delete it as thepost was too old.

Book-tube-athon was a flop, I thought it was only the 3rd to the 6th, but it was the whole week. The first day I read Scarlet, then started Lament. On the second day I was ill, then the 3rd day I was still recovering and on the 4th I thought 'What's the point?' and that was the end of that.

Book-tube-ahon 2015 Challenges

Hey guys, so next week is the book-tube-athon. Obviously it is for Youtube, but I thought it would be fun to do it also.

The challenges are:

1) Read a book with blue on the cover
2) Read a book by an author who shares the same firs letter as your surname
3) Read someone else's favourite book
4) Read the last book you acquired
5) Finish a book without letting go of it (even if you aren't reading it)
6) Read a book you really want to read
7) Read 7 books during the week

It starts on the 3rd of August from midnight and ends on 6th of August.

The books I'm reading are:
1) Scarlet by Marissa Meyer
2) Lament by Maggie Stiefvater
3) ---
4) Sugar-coated by Catherine Ford
5) High School Musical (I know, I know but it's short)
6) The Scorch Trial by James Dashner
7) The Second Short Life of Bree Tanner by Stephanie Meyer

I am asking my sister for the 3rd challenge, but then altogether that'll be 7 books. I'm really excited, I don't know whether I'll be able to read 7 books in 7 days, but hopefully I'll be able to do a lot.
