I had such a great time participating in this readathon! It started on April 1st and runs the whole month until April 30th… But I’m happy to announce that I’ve been able to complete all twelve O.W.L. exams already with three days to spare! It was a close call, mostly because I had a pile of ARCs I had to go through as well, but I’m happy to have finished all titles in time. Before I continue: if you want to learn more about the readathon, you can hear all about it in Book Roast‘s video below.
I’ve decided to officially go for the Magizoologist carreer this year, which means I will be concentrating on the N.E.W.T.s for Care Of Magical Creatures, Charms, Herbology and Potions when the N.E.W.T.s Readathon goes live in August. First things first though… Below a complete list of the books I read for my O.W.L.s. Covers of the books read for the different Hogwarts subjects are shown first in the order I read them and then marked green with the date I finished them added in the list that follows.

Haha only because I was able to fit various pending ARCs for the different prompts. š

Wow, you had an amazing reading month! I’m just one book away from achieving all 12 O.W.Ls, too, which I didn’t expect at all. š (Although a lot of that is down to me slipping some much shorter reads between the longer novels I reached for.)
I really need to try Taylor Jenkins Reid this year. I want to read The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo so much, but I’ve yet to see a single bad review of Daisy Jones & The Six. I hope May’s another great reading month for you!
