[@leaferreira3013]

Best news of the day!! Can't wait!! So excited!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍

[@fanetjuh]

MEEEEEEE!

[@PageswithPaige]

Ahahhhhhh!!! Yay!!!!!

[@Reading_in_pink]

Too excited for words 🖤🖤🖤

[@shainalite]

MEEEEEEE 😍

[@bookschocaholic]

The ASMR room is quite possibly the most exciting addition ever!

[@BookRoast]

I am so hyped for it!

[@mels2036]

OMG I LOVE YOUR IDEA WITH THE ASMR ROOMS!! I always put one on when reading so this is just perfect, thanks G! 💜

[@BookRoast]

Yay I’m so happy to hear that!

[@LifeWithLauren23]

I am in awe and how incredible your imagination and dedication is! I have adored participating in Magical Readathon for years now and just when I thought it couldn't be any more amazing and immersive... you raise the bar! Absolutely speechless G! 🥰

[@BookRoast]

Thank you!! So glad you’ve been here over the years, thank you for participating 🥰

[@pavlinazitkova]

The ambience rooms are a wonderful idea. 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@kateadale7100]

I am so excited for this. Had a total reading slump in June and read 15 books in July already so hopefully this means August is going to be a great reading month

[@BookRoast]

Oh wow don't mind the June slump, July has made up for it! :D

[@KarleensCreativeWorld]

15 books is awesome especially after a slump! I read 80+ books between February and June and haven’t touched a single book in July. Plan to read a few things before the end of the month though. I actually have 2 Spring Equinox books I need to read still.

[@bookishbia]

I am already in love with the Locked Library your mind is incredible

[@krystenlaird4579]

I was not here for Spring Equinox semester, but I'm excited to join in for Autumn! My baby is due is August and I've been trying to finish preparing for baby in July so I can just relax in August when I'm too pregnant to do much else, and this is a perfect incetive to finish preparing and then read a bunch while I relax! I think I will try and see if other books I have read this year fit the prompts for the path I choose and if not, make an extra challange to finish those off. I cannot believe how intricate this world and readathons are, amazing work!

[@TheTalomir]

I am just discovering this and my plan..is to start on the novice path and catch up somehow..add that to my character build lol!

[@lina5699]

Ooh I love ambience rooms. Thank you for everything you do and for your existence

[@kathleenbaker2791]

I came over from Becca’s page, never done a readathon before, excited to jump in!

[@youwillneverknow7165]

God, G, you outdo yourself with these every single time. Will I ever not be in awe of how much work and creativity and consideration goes into making all of the materials and prompts and extra content? Probably not.

[@thefaeriewilds]

The ambiance rooms are perfect, the bookmarks are perfect, the quest board is perfect, everything you do is magical and beautiful and amazing! Can't wait to go back to Orilium!

[@inglishtea6487]

Already making my Orilium spread on my bullet journal!!!

[@RSorei]

Oh heck yeah!! I didn't expect the announcement vid until the weekend at the earliest, so I might have just yelled at my phone in excitement 😂

[@BookRoast]

Hhaha love it! ✨

[@amandastevenson3970]

I have had the worst time reading this summer but I did really well in the Spring Equinox so fingers crossed that Autumn Equinox is what I need to get back into a reading mood

[@Neverrgreen]

15:30 description of library for future use.

[@msellenandrea]

My body is ready 😍🥳

[@renee_3364]

G, would you consider doing a video with some recommendations for the more specific prompts? I think that would be super helpful.

[@makaylasodeman1697]

The ambiance room is so cool!!!!!

[@samreadsbooks_13]

I'm so excited. Also a little nervous to plan my tbr

[@chiyapink7607]

I'm so excited to start building my TBR. Thanks for the amazing work G!

[@BookRoast]

💖💖💖

[@Erin_P_xoxo]

Oh my gosh I LOVE ambience rooms and I am so excited that you’ll be releasing your own and this looks STUNNING! I can’t wait! Thank you for putting in so much work G, it’s absolutely inspiring!

[@amydownes3546]

Would love for a bookmark restock.

[@misskindly4580]

The effort you put into this is absolutely amazing, I LOVE ambience videos in the background as I read so I'm embarrassingly excited about those, but also, so many fun and creative prompts! This video made my day :)

[@BookRoast]

I really hope it’ll be up to scratch! 🫣💖

[@faithlessone423]

Right - written out all my prompts! Now to pick my TBR... Cannot WAIT to go back to Orilium!!! ♥

[@maypasifiki9360]

I love the new elements, the library, the bookmarks is super lovely. Everything is chefs 💋. Thank you G. ❤

[@cerrad.]

That ambience room! Once again, G is doing The Most. Excited for August!

[@ChaosBloom]

I'm not even joking, I was eating breakfast this morning and thought about how close to August we were. Was wondering if maybe I had missed the announcement and found this when I when I went looking... you could say I'm having a good day B-)

[@BookRoast]

It was fate ☺️

[@ReadingNymph]

The amount of work you do for this is outstanding

[@lisavanwyk5016]

I've been exited about this since taking part in the spring equinox in April. I am nervous as my due date is the 22nd of August. So I'll see how far I'll get🤭😍 Fingers crossed

[@Ellorna]

Oh wow! I can’t wait for this ambience video and those bookmarks are goooorgeous! Definitely can’t wait to go back. Time to go figure out my TBR.

[@antonishapolitepeoples]

The ASMR room is awesome!! I love putting them on in the background when I am reading and I try to find one to match the type of book or vibe of what I'm reading. And it's a library!!! Can't wait for to use it.

[@BookRoast]

I’m so excited for ittttt!!!

[@tee4410]

the room ambience addition is so cute! so excited for that

[@elizabethbrown6478]

Such a cool concept!!! I never started this Readathon, but I probably will this summer to hopefully get to the Autumn Equinox timeline!

[@janebeyondtheacademy_]

Both parts of the readathon this year overlap with trips I took/am taking home to see my family, and it just feels like the most wholesome, restorative set of circumstances. Thank you so much for all of the work that you put into this, G! It's truly incredible.

[@BookRoast]

Aw I hope you have a lovely time visiting also!

[@mirodemorte]

I am so excited for this! The bookmarks are GORGEOUS, I cannot wait to get some. And the ambiance room is just what I need to concentrate. Thank you so so much for all your hard work G. you are amazing

[@Once_Upon_A_Bekah]

Im so excited for the rooms!!!

Once again G you go above and beyond and I'm awe-inspired. The ASMR rooms are incredible and you can bet I'm buying each bookmark! (hopefully I'm able to get one!) I'm so excited! Thank you so much for all the work you put into this!!!!

[@sweet_t_reads]

I'm so excited for this! I took place in the spring one. That's the first of your readathons I've ever done! This is going to be fun!

[@BookRoast]

[@sweet_t_reads]

[@francescab6636]

[@CompletelyMelanie]

I am so excited for this. I have been in a little bit of a reading slump so hopefully I can get out of it before this starts!

[@christinah3332]

Ambiance rooms and bookmarks?!!! You are simply amazing G! I’m so excited to come back to Orilium!

[@BookRoast]

Thank you! So happy you’re back! 💖

[@jasminu4971]

Yees, I'm so excited!! I'm so happy that I've got two weeks off in August and I'm on a super chill holiday too, so I can read tons!

[@martinaschlagl3882]

I am so exited for everything included in this readathon, especially the rooms! Thanks G for putting in so much work for us 💜

[@alexandreafrigon]

Eeep! Very exciting! The library looks amazing.. the bookmarks.. so shiny🤩 Can't wait to get my TBR together. Thank you G. Looking forward to this!

[@BookRoast]

Thank you!

[@serenamckinlay2788]

I was worried my books would be in storage for this announcement and I wouldn't be able to plan accordingly, so glad I get to pick what I want now!

[@moonflower1616]

I am moving in a month and am so damn overwhelmed, but this gives me something to look forward to. Thank you. TT__TT

[@BookRoast]

Hope the move goes well too!

[@ashreadsfantasy]

Omg omg!! So excited and nervous lol! The library looks so magical!

[@violetpagesss]

[@BookRoast]

Thank you so much ✨

[@BrewsandReviews]

I am so here for the amibience room! Such a great idea!

[@daphneseguin4933]

THE ROOMS 😍🤯😍 I'm soooo excited omg!!!!

[@natd2330]

Omg, I am so looking forward to this! Thank you for sharing your creativity with us. I can’t wait to see the rooms! And thanks for sharing the transcripts for those of us who appreciate the beauty of the stylized fonts but occasionally need something easier to read. You’re awesome G!

[@carinamcnulty4680]

So excited for the library! Would be cool if there were some themed stickers we could buy too, for decorating journal pages

[@BookRoast]

👀💖

[@mystique772]

Can't wait to get my TBR together and I must say that the sneak peak of the ambiance room is absolutely stunning! Amazing job as always. Your creativity is top tier!

[@abbeyroche2983]

Your makeup looks AMAZING!!!!!! ❤️

[@AnanasAbanaan]

I'm in a tent with no wifi 😭🏕️ but I'll tune in on Friday to watch and plan all my reading! (Reading Project Hail Mary because it was in the camping book share and you are such a fan, and I'm having a lot of fun with it!)

[@francescathomas3502]

Another change - for Psionics & Divination - D level - read a second hand book. Again E books and Audio books dont fit - so I was thinking maybe read an old book, either a "Classic" or a book published before 2000 or before the year you were born. Something similar to that. That is what I plan to do. Because most second hand books are OLD!! 😇

[@BookRoast]

Remember that e books and audiobooks borrowed from a library would suit too 🥰

[@cappuccinocrafts2412]

The ASMR Room is a fantastic idea. So excited. Thank you, G!

[@littlefootreader]

YYYYAAAASSSS!! Orillium is the highlight of my reading year!!! You are a genius!!! Can't wait!

[@somethingbookishthiswaycomes]

So glad I'm no longer in a reading slump so I can join for this round! This is truly so amazing G, I will forever be in awe of how above and beyond you go to make this readathon so fun and immersive for us!

[@BookRoast]

[@ChrisDailyReading]

I kind of forgot about it, so I was so excited when I saw the announcement this afternoon! This heatwave is making me so excited just to sit back and read some books 😍

[@nataliekaminski]

G you put so much hard work into this and it looks fabulous. The ASMR room idea is brilliant whenever I do your readathon I always have one on when reading. I'm going for Open Heart Surgery next week, when my concentration is back this readathon is something I will look forward to doing. 😁

[@daryanthelibrarian]

[@tabithamiscellania]

I am so hyped for this!! And that ambience room looks amazing. I love putting on an ambience video while I read.

[@JJCHAU]

I’m so excited and have been eagerly waiting for the Autumn Equinox! But I’m bummed I missed out on the bookmarks! 😫😢 I would love to buy them if you decide to restock!

[@sarahteter6310]

I've barely just finished one book this month, Lord of Chaos by Robert Jordan is 1011 pages so it took me a while. I was feeling a bit discouraged so I didn't read for several days and was sick with chronic pain and migraines many times this month, so I hear you about the health stuff messing with your schedule. I tried to look at the last time I read a lot on CAWPILE to see if I could motivate myself again and OF COURSE IT WAS DURING THE LAST MAGICAL READATHON I read 47 books! So somewhere between one giant tome and 47 reads should be good.

[@sarahteter6310]

Am I correct in understanding we are staying with our previous courses and trying to get the necessary levels for this semester? So if I was working on Necromancer before I would continue with those classes first? I believe you said this, my brain is just fried from frequent migraines and I wanted to be sure before I started my list.

[@firewhiskeyreader8257]

The ambiance room sounds SO cool! I am so excited! Thank you so much for all of your work!!

[@BookRoast]

Thank you!!

[@TCLinda]

Me me me! Love the idea of the Library ASMR, cannot wait. I am so in need of some deep book immersion, this is just in the nick of time! 😅

[@TopazRubyQueen]

AMBIENCE ROOMS!!! This is going to be so fun! 😄

[@CaroLiaGrace]

OMG G!!! I am soo excited!!! Thanks for your hard work! And I would definitely be interested in getting an Order of the Crescent 🌙 bookmark 🤗

[@zehnmalp]

G, you are amazing! I've been participating since the very first readathon and it just brings me so much joy 💜 I cant believe you top it every single time, thank you so much!

[@BookRoast]

[@zehnmalp]

@@BookRoast I hope to come back for many more rounds 💜

[@theresetatlow5605]

So excited! I’ve been looking forward to this. I love the addition of the rooms and the bookmarks - so pretty!
