 hey everyone welcome to the last and final day of the reading rush but today is day seven which i probably should be more sad about but i'm honestly really happy because i'm really burnt out and yeah i love all the work that goes into this readathon and i acknowledge all the work that goes into this readathon and i love this readathon. i've been doing it for three or four years but it is a lot of work like it is a lot um and i did push myself so it's my fault but you know excited about how much i write in a week and i just want to like after this take like a little break and have more like self-care time and stuff because i've just been on the internet daily and daily vlogging and daily uploading and doing challenges and yeah so there's that but it was still like a good time this week so so i was recommended are you there god it's me margaret which is this is a middle grade book i think i've talked about it before when i do talk about my childhood books but this was recommended to me by my grade six teacher and she was like my favorite teacher ever um i absolutely like adore her and she was super sweet to me because like i had teachers in the past who were awful to me but she was super sweet to me and she recommended this book to me because she saw i was getting into like reading a ton from the school library and this basically is about this girl around like the same age that i was in and she's like going through all these things like you know um starting to develop crushes on boys and starting to get into puberty and all that stuff so talk about like periods and all that so that was really helpful to me at that time because that's exactly what i was going through so it's the one book that discusses like kind of wondering like all the questions that you have at that age and then also topics about boys puberty adolescents all that stuff that was a book recommendation to me that meant a lot and yeah my cat's coming back over here but yeah that's a book recommendation that meant a lot to me um just by judy bloom if you don't know but yeah one day i might reread it just for like the nostalgia and to see i don't know just all the messages in it that maybe i noticed as a kid but maybe didn't fully pick up and that i pick up now when i'm older but anyways yeah so that was my little story i guess i want to wrap up all the books that i read kitty kitty oh he hates being with it okay i want to wrap up all the books that i read this past week i did complete all the challenges the only one that i did not complete was the five star one but i got all the badges and yeah i'm super happy about that so that's great in an order but the two books that i don't own physically that i read first up i read genderqueer and this is like a really important graphic novel and it talks a lot about being non-binary and asexual and growing up and trying to figure all that that stuff out and again i'm talking about it throughout all these vlogs so i'm not going to be talking about it too much but i really really enjoyed it i gave it four stars i also read mooncakes the graphic novel i received an arc sorry my cat's knocking things over i received an arc from a net galley or i just got it off a net galley i didn't really request it it was just kind of available but i really enjoyed this one and this one follows witch as well as a non-binary werewolf and their like romance and their relationships and it's super magical and whimsical and fun and i really enjoyed the art style so i ended up giving that one around four stars as well physical books that i did read i did read black butler volume one this was a reread for me but i used this for like the book to movie thing but this was okay i talked about it in yesterday's vlog but i gave this one a 3.5 then i read let's call it a doom day by katie henry i was a little bit let down by this one took me a while to get into and then it was also just i just didn't enjoy the story and i didn't i don't it just felt really fly and it was pretty disappointing but it is interesting in a lot of ways but yeah i gave it only like a 2.75 i think so it wasn't like awful but it wasn't great read with the fire on high by elizabeth isavito so this is probably my biggest success of the readathon i buddy i did buddy read this but chanel time but this book got a four i just put it as a four but i still haven't written my reviews so it's probably gonna be like a 4.5 i adored this and yeah i'm super happy about this this was probably my favorite read it wasn't my favorite read of the readathon and i just think it's super important i'm super happy about this i enjoyed this more than the potex and yeah i'm gonna be raving about this book for like a bit so i read the prince and the dressmaker and this is by jen wang i also really like this one i gave this one a round of four stars so like in terms of graphic novels i was too in great um like in terms of ratings and in terms of reading in chanel i had a really good rating week the dressmaker it was really good i really liked the art style a lot of the messages throughout it and yeah i don't want to talk about too much in depth but i ended up giving this one around four stars and i got this one from my library because but i've been like because um graphic novels are expensive so up i read uh mira tiebreaker and this is like an aquaman kind of thing it's by dc ink and i bought you read this with my friends brie and alexa so we read this together and it was okay it was enjoyable it was cute in a lot of ways it was super predictable though and but like i like the art style it was predictable and you know it was interesting i ended up giving it three stars it was just kind of solid lastly i listened to the audiobook of city of ghosts and i finished this one up and this was really good for me i really enjoyed it i think i gave it a 3.75 or something it's a really fun creepy little middle grade book and yeah i was really impressed by the writing style of this one and the little like eerie tone that this had and yeah this was super fun and i also enjoyed listening to it on audio so yeah those were all the books that i read this week it is still early in the day i think it's only 10 am on day seven but i'm going to be ending this vlog here just because like i'm going to be out tonight i'm not gonna have a time time to edit all of this and honestly i did the challenge talked about what i've read and all that and i'm not gonna be reading much today anyways because i'm gonna be out all day with
