Aimal @ Bookmarks And Paperbacks hosted A Very ARCish Readathon during the whole month of April; a readathon all about tackling your personal ARC mountain. The best part is that the goals were easy: just read as many ARCs as possible, have fun and comment on social media with the hashtag #AVAReadthon if you wanted to.
I made a TBR back in March and ended up reading 6 out of 9 titles on that list. I didn’t read all of them mostly because I had mixed up the dates of some of the ARCs and only noticed in April… But also because I was too weak to resist the NG request button and had to read a few titles first instead. xD
Still, I managed to read a whopping total of 13! ARCs during the month of April. 6 of them were Netgalley ARCs, while 7 were sent by their respective authors. I’m really happy with those numbers, especially since I’ve been waaaaay behind with those ARCs. My NG rating has dropped a bit this month though, so I will have to do something about that in May. Oops?
Here’s a list of all the ARCs I’ve read for the #AVAReadathon and a link to the reviews:
- Blood Moon by John David Bethel 4/5 stars SENT BY AUTHOR
- Sleep Tight by Caroline Mitchell 4,5/5 stars NETGALLEY

6 ARCs is an awesome number! I’ve been binge-reading my ARCs but I still feel like I’m drowning in them haha. Good luck with your NG books this month! 🙂

8 out of 10 is an awesome ratio! And I was actually quite happy I read more non-NG ARCs than NG because I have been seriously neglecting those… Even though my ratio is now dangerously close to the 80% limit. xD

Awesome job! Unfortunately, I didn’t read any arcs for the month, but I’m hoping to do better in May!

I still don’t know how I did it, although I should probably try and repeat it this month just to get rid of the backlog of ARCs I still have haha.
