I have a love hate relationship with contemporary's. On one hand if they're done well that it's amazing, but so many contemporary's have let me down that I stopped reading them as much as I used to. I'm hoping that this read-a-thon will help me to discover some hidden gems.
- #Bookentine is a YA contemporary read-a-thon
- It runs from 13th February to 20th February
- There are 3 challenges (so not too stressful!)
The Challenges!
Read a book with red and/or pink on the cover,
Read a book by an author you haven’t read before,
Read a book featuring mental illness or disability.
My 2017 Bookentine TBR
The Fill-In Boyfriend by Kasie West - I've had this one on my TBR list for so long and I just really need to read it now. I haven't heard much about it but the synopsis sounds really fun and just like it would be a really easy read! (Buy it here)
Holding Up The Universe by Jennifer Niven - I can't wait to read this! I haven't read anything by Jennifer Niven before but I've heard amazing things about her books so I'm very excited. (Buy it here)
My Heart and Other Black Holes by Jasmine Warga - From what I know about this book it's based around depression. A girl decides she wants to commit suicide and goes on an online forum to find a 'suicide partner'. I'm so intrigued by the premise of this book. I can already tell it's going to be a tear jerker.
