Happy Saturday everyone! Today I'm sharing my TBR for the Reindeer Readathon which will run for the entire month of December. It is hosted by Erik @ Breakeven Books with some help from Christine & Mo, Kristin, Hannah, Vanessa, Tina, Ahtiya, and Steffany. I'm on Team Snowflake this year which is hosted by Tina and Steffany. I've been participating in this readathon since 2021, and I'd say I've got a great tbr put together for this year's round. Without further ado, let's get to my tbr:
DASHER - 10 PTS - A book where the combined sum total of all the numbers in the page count must be greater than 12. An example would be 392 (3+9+2=14)
My choice: Ronan Boyle and the Bridge of Riddles (Ronan Boyle #1) by Thomas Lennon - I don't read MG often, but this sounds fun. +20 BONUS POINTS - CHRISTMAS TREE
DANCER - 20 PTS - A book that matches (genre, trope, theme etc.) one of the first 5 words that you find in the word search. Must be a word from the list.
My choice: The Bewitching Hour: A Tara Prequel by Ashley Poston - I've been meaning to read this Buffy tie-in for ages. It sounds like it could be a lot of fun. My word search word was "fantasy". +20 BONUS POINTS - CHRISTMAS CAROLS
PRANCER - 25 PTS - The title has at least 7 syllables.
My choice: The Grimoire Grammar School Parent Teacher Association by Caitlin Rozakis - I've been looking for more cozy fantasy and this sounds like a fun one.
VIXEN - 15 PTS - The author has an initial in their name.
My name: Flamboyants: The Queer Harlem Renaissance I Wish I'd Known by George M. Johnson - I've been looking for more LGBT+ history and I don't think I should miss this. +15 BONUS POINTS - CHRISTMAS LIGHTS
COMET - 10 PTS - Based on your astrology sign, read a book where one of the 3 listed colors is the main color on the cover. Cancer, Leo, Virgo: white, orange, or brown.
My choice: The Bands of Morning (Mistborn #6) by Brandon Sanderson - I've really loved the Wax & Wayne trilogy of this series so far and I'm glad my copy has a mostly white cover. +15 BONUS POINTS - CHRISTMAS ELF
CUPID - 15 PTS - Choice your pairing: Physical book: Translated book.
My choice: Hex (Robert Grim #1) by Thomas Olde Heuvelt - I was hoping to get to this for Halloween last month, but better late than never, right?
DONNER - 20 PTS - Book cover must have something from the title on it.
My choice: Greenteeth by Molly O'Neill - There is definitely has green teeth on the cover!
BLITZEN - 15 PTS - Choose 3 books at least 5 years old. Randomly select one of them.
My choice: A Rope - In Case (The Second Hebridean Trilogy #1) by Lillian Beckwith - My copy actually has a different cover, but I couldn't find mine in Goodreads. My other potential picks were Captives of Time by Malcolm Bosse and The Magician by Sol Stein. I used the extremely scientific method of Eeny, meeny, miny, moe to pick which of the three.
RUDOLPH - 10 PTS - No eyes on the cover.
My choice: The 13th Hour (Nick Quinn Thrillers #1) by Richard Doetsch - I picked this up from a thrift shop awhile ago. I hadn't heard of it before it sounds like it could be a cool time travel thriller.
SLEIGHING IT - 50 PTS - If you have completed all of your prompts and the Christmas bonus prompts (Star, Lights, Carols, Tree, Elf), you can redo one prompt of your choice for extra points.
My choice: Graveyard Shift by Michael F. Haspil - The task I'm repeating is Vixen. I found this urban fantasy book at a local used book store and it sounds like it could be really cool.
