Welcome to Litsy!

#AugustWrapUp
A great month for reading despite going back to work! Fav book is tagged.

My desire to join the #MagicalReadathon2019 (better late than never!) led me to most of the books I read. I successfully earned an Outstanding for the #OWLsReadathon2019! One of the books also doubled for my #ReadLikeRory challenge.

I also finally finished both the Chronicles of Narnia and Harry Potter series, the latter for #HPBuddyRead.

Quite proud! 🤩

Here is the book I just started, it's short so I'm hoping to finish it soon. It was the only book on my shelf with star in the title 🤣🤣 and it reminds me of a past coworker who loved it because she was also homeschooled 😁 #reread but feels like my first time

I completed 9 exams for #OWLsReadathon2019! Here are my book reviews: https://youtu.be/0dm15Ng-s7Y

Very late in updating my #OWLsReadathon2019 results! I completed what I needed for my career (Potioneer). Read 11 books total, but was just short of completing all 12 possible OWLs.

My 8 yr old and 6 yr old both completed their chose OWLs as well. I'm so proud of them for participating and keeping up with the reading!

Hope everyone had a successful time sitting their OWLs! I completed all my required coursework and then some:

Ancient Runes
Arithmancy
Care of Magical Creatures
Charms
Defense Against the Dark Arts
Herbology
History of Magic
Potions
Transfiguration

Which means I got an Outstanding on my exams 🦉

I successfully completed all 12 OWLs! I loved the majority of them - God Emperor Of Dune and Unicorns of Balinor were just not for me, but the rest were 5 star reads for me. I was pleasantly surprised by The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society and a Man Called Ove, I did not expect to love them as much as I did 💛 #owlsreadathon2019 #magicalreadathon

‪Charms (adult work) was my final read for #OWLsReadathon2019 and it ended on a high note! Loved this one. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️‬

‪Overall 11/12 classes past and 3,635 pages read. Can‘t wait for NEWTs to start! ‬

0/5⭐ If you were ever interested in seeing what it's like to live in the mind of a man who fantasizes himself as a broody perfect hero and objectifies women onto pedestals, look no further. The completionist in me felt obligated to finish the series with volume 3 even though I disliked volume 2, but ultimately I regret the money and time I spent on Dawn. #OWLsReadathon2019

I finished my #OWLsReadathon2019! And I thoroughly enjoyed all the books I read for it, too! It‘s been a really good reading year, so far 👍🏾

Ancient Runes OWL: 5⭐️
