#BookTubeAThon Days 2 & 3... Success!!!!!!

So my lovelies, the end of day 3 draws near and I have completed over half of my TBR pile in three days... let us all do the happy dance.... boom... shake... shake... boom....

Daily Round-up:

Day 2 I completed the majority of Insurgent By Veronic Roth, I say majority as I had less than 100 pages left to read. Overall Tuesday was a bit of a slump when reading was concerned; I spent most of the day extremely busy but I did find time to fit in rougly 400 pages before bed.

Day 3 however was much more of a reading day... I started the day early by finishing Insurgent by Veronica Roth and then dived straight into Allegiant by Veronica Roth, and Oh my God; this book brought out the tears and the laughter and hit every emotion I think I could muster. However the ending I found less intense; I don't know whether it was because I was reading faster than normal but I found myself to disengage with the characters for the last set of chapters; ***** SPOILER***** especially after the death... which myself found to lack the defiance the build up made out to believe... however I found the last two chapters to be touching... they still left questions but it ended pretty well. I will be posting a full review of this series as well as my other reads across the week following #BookTubeAThon. 

HOWEVER.... I didn't stop there on my reading mission for today... I took an hour of me time to relax my eyes and then I delved into the world of Half Bad by Sally Green, now I haven't quite finished this book yet but there is still a bit of time left before bed so this should easily be finished; especially now the pace is quickening in the book.

As it is only three days into the #BookTubeAThon and I have completed over half of my TBR pile and the remaining books are of a smaller nature I have decided that I am going to add a selection of potential additions to my TBR to be chosen from once the pile is complete:

• Percy Jackson and the battle of the Labyrinth by Rick Riordan :- this is already almost complete with less than 50 pages and will probably be the first I pick up after completing the TBR pile
• Percy Jackson and the Last Olympian by Rick Riordan
• the fast track version of 'The War of The Worlds' retold by Pauline Francis which is less than 50 pages total and if I finish Half Bad before I get too tired I might push myself through this tonight??!!??
