 Hey guys, it's Julia, and welcome back to my channel. And for today's video, I'm going to be doing a fun announcement video. And today I'm going to be announcing the Kramathon. 🎵 Yeah, I'm gonna say that you want 🎵 Typically the Kramathon, if you haven't heard, it's been done several times before. It was originally hosted by Woody Novels, but this round she's unable to host. So my friend Dylan asked me to host along with some other amazing co-hosts, including Jay from The Awkward Bookworm, Ally from Hardback Quarter, and of course Dylan from Dylan the Rater 5. I'm very excited to be doing this. Basically Kramathon is where you kind of cram a bunch of books into a certain amount of days, so pick really short books is kind of the whole goal. And this time we're doing it from December 26th, the day after Christmas, to January the 2nd. Basically I'm very excited to be hosting because I actually did the Kramathon like 2 years ago when I was little itty-bitty Julia and didn't know how to film, which not saying I know how to film now, but still. I'm going to be announcing the reading challenges for the Kramathon. The first challenge is a book with under 200 pages. Second is a book with LGBT, QIAP plus representation. Third is the shortest book on your TBR. It's a book that has your favorite color on the cover. Next is a book that was gifted to you because this is right after Christmas and I know all the fellow book lovers are gonna at least get a few books or many books for Christmas because that's usually what we ask for. So yeah, you can read one of the ones that you're gifted. The next challenge is really fun. It's basically you have to read one of the, well you don't have to, you can. Read one of the host's favorite short books. My recommendation was The Grown Up by Gillian Flynn. Dylan's recommendation was Living Dead Girl by Elizabeth Scott. Jay's recommendation was George by Alex Gino, which I love as well. Like, pick that up. And Ally's pick was, and every morning the way home gets longer and longer by Frederick something. It's basically blocked off. So, titles are here. Photos are here is what I meant. The last and final challenge is to read seven books and of course you don't have to do all the challenges. Of course you can just read short books and have a great time. You don't have to do the challenges at all. They're there for you if you want to. You can also double up all that sort of stuff. I'll have everyone's channel linked down below that are helping host this. Super excited about it and I hope you guys are gonna join in. Make sure to follow the Twitter for reading sprints and updates. And it's so much fun. I'm so excited about it. So I hope you guys join in and I definitely don't do readathons. Like I don't host them often.
