Books

Since the start of the read a thon on  August 5th i've read seventeen books and thats including The GG books. If i count the beginning of August so far i've read 21 since the  first day of August.Which isnt to bad it's a pretty good number  and I still have time to add more books to the list.   This should be interesting.

quotes from the books in pictures










An idea

I can't believe i  am finished already!  I think what i'm going to do is see how many other books i've read during the read a thon and see how many i can read till the next book comes out.

It can be like  another read a thon for me.


I will have quotes and pics up later cause i didn't have a chance yesterday.

I couldn't help my self  as soon as i finished Cross my hear and hope to spy i had to read the rest  right after. I always do!

finished!

Finished reading Out of sight out of time today! It only took me about an hour to read.

Today!

Today I read (Cross my hear and hope to spy) and  (Don't judge a girl by her cover). And I am now reading only the good spy young. An eventfully day at most  all read with in an hour.

Really good day, I am glad to be rereading my favourite series.

I'll have picks of my favourite spots  and stuff from the books later tonight.

Second week of GG read a thon

Today is the start of the second week of the GG read a thon. I'm so excited for this.

Now (Cross my heart and hope to spy) by Ally Carter Is my favourite book in the series. I have read it more than all the others.  Because when i first started the series it was cause i started  Cross my heart and hope to spy after a friend loaned me the book since than i haven't stopped loving it.

Now i'm still waiting for it to come in at the library but it will be in any day now which is great.

I love Zack in the book he's so awesome if i could chose any guy character from a book to be my boyfriend I would Pick Zack and i'm not joking!

Finished the book

I finished the book this morning!
No matter how many times I read i'd tell you I love but then i'd have to kill you,it never gets old.

Favourite parts.
I like the part where they put notes in the wall I mean i'd do that if I wanted to exchange notes and had a place to do it.

I love when Josh drives the forklift through the wall I laugh every time.

And when Macey comes i mean That is like epic. I like Macey she's awesome.

I like the idea of edible paper its helpful for the most part.

Each character is unique and its always hard to just have one favourite.

I love how Cammie's friends help her investigate Josh. I mean I know  a couple of my friends who would do that for me just not as extensive.

The book is always a page turner. And I always read late a night when I read This book.


09 August, 2013

I started reading.

I started reading I'd tell you i love you but then i'd have to kill you, today after picking it up from the library i should finish the book tomorrow.D


Pics below  first one is of one of my favourite line with oops daisy. Second is the book cover.



  1. My Favourite things about this book.
  2.  All the characters  I mean characters and their personalities really create a magic in a sense when a good story is being told.
  3. Josh cause when I think of him I think of the actor Josh Hucherson who I happen to have a  crush on. And Josh sounds so cute in the book and like chocolate i like chocolate 
  4. Cammie is my favourite character because she blends in and at times reminds me of myself. And i love her code name it fits her so well.Thought I love all the characters.

Q and A:
1. Do we need all the books or will there be a site were we can read them?  
There is no site where you can read them and it would be best to have all the books.
You can always borrow from a friend or get the books from the library :)

2. Can we use Facebook? Tumblr?
SO sorry about this. I completely forgot to add both to the original form. But it should be an option now. You can always re-submit a new form or edit your old one. Either is fine!

3. Will I remind you guys of the schedule? 

Of course! We plan on doing a wrap up post every Monday and I'll be sure to have a copy of the schedule on there :)

4. Do you need to tag the posts on Tumblr?

It would be preferred if you tagged it GGReadathon.

5.  Do you have to review the books?
Definitely not! It's just a way of spreading the book love :D Reviewing is NOT a must!


6. How will the giveaway work?

All you guys are already numbered once you guys have signed up.
So I'll put the total number of participants and use random.org to pick a winner.

7. VLOGGERS! You guys can link me to your YouTube page in the Blog  URL box.
I'll try to add that to the form tomorrow.

8. Is this international? 

Why yes it is ;P 

9. Do you have to tweet what you thought of the book?

Not necessarily! You can tweet your favorite lines/quotes!
Let us know how far along you are in the book. Things like that.

10. Can we just follow the read along on your blog?
Depends. If you're going to be reading along as well just not posting then yes.
If you're just following along but not reading then you're not eligible for the giveaway but certainly can follow along.

11. Don't have a blog/Tumblr/FB/Instagram/Twitter?
No problem! Just be to comment on our wrap up posts every Monday.

12. What do I tweet/use Instagram to follow along?
Tweet your progress, favorite quotes or scenes, your thoughts as you read a long.
Take pics of you and your book. Take some pics of which part you're in or your favorite lines! 
Create fanart or make a collage. Post pics of your casting choices. Stuff like that :)

13. Can you listen to the books?
YEPPERS 

14. Do we have to wait for the set time to start reading the next book?
It is ultimately your choice but that is the scheduled we worked out just so no one would get confused plus it makes it more easier to organize.

15. How does the schedule work? 
Everyone's going to start reading I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have To Kill You on the WEEK of August 5th. When you finish the book you MAY continue the series but you can always wait till the next week. As long as you've finished ALL 5 books by September 8th then you're all good. We created the schedule so it would be easier for people to follow along but as long as you start on the WEEK of August 5th and finish all 5 books by September 8th you're all good!
