What a cool idea for a challenge & tough! 😃 Those sweaters look amazing! 😍 Angry Bird fail! 🐦 😂 Hope headaches go away! Kitty! 🐾 Cookies! 🍪 📱

[@elise85391]

I like this idea, cause trading screen time for reading time isn’t always feasible

[@esmayrosalyne]

Love you outing yourself with those insane number of phone pickups hahaha. Glad you are having fun with the readathon!! I felt the exact same way on Tainted Cup, and I think it needed much more of Ana lol she was such a hoot 🤣😍

[@MelLenoreReads]

I am exposed hahahahaha (and once again our tastes align. I'm going to start looking for the seal everywhere lol)

[@esmayrosalyne]

@@MelLenoreReads the seal will rule the world one day

[@natcommon]

Love those sweaters! They look so soft

[@MelLenoreReads]

They are!

[@anikamercier2651]

This was fun! 📱

[@rainybluereads]

Ooh phone pickups is a fun challenge! Cant wait to get to book two glow of the everflame soon!

[@MelLenoreReads]

I really liked it!

[@lindsayjardine3376]

Great vlog x

[@MelLenoreReads]

Thanks for watching !

[@FourPawsandaBook]

Love this challenge! I’m in such a slump so these reading vlogs are giving me a little motivation.

[@MelLenoreReads]

Booo slump. But also I feel you. I'm digging myself out kicking and screaming. Glad to help a little.

[@Laurasbookishlife]

i totally agree with you about novellas.. i struggle with them

[@MelLenoreReads]

Yep yep

[@StephanieGoodrich3]

Im so excited for the challenge videos! My doctor recently put me on medicine for my migraines, too. I hope yours helps you. ❤

[@MelLenoreReads]

I hope yours does too!

[@StephanieGoodrich3]

@@MelLenoreReads thank you! She put me on one that starts with S. It doesn't completely make them go away, but it takes the edge off enough that I can some what function.

[@ariannawestley]

I totally forgot about the ending of Powerless when I read Powerful and the end just tore me apart 😭

[@MelLenoreReads]

Its brutal!

[@brianneholmes6547]

Go Thrill Seekers! I am really enjoying the readathon and I think our team is doing really well.

[@MelLenoreReads]

Me too!

[@AmandasBooktopia]

This was so fun! I’ve recently gotten Spark of the Everflame and I’m excited to check out the series. Everyone seems to be loving it. I also want to check out the Stacia Stark series. I’ve been seeing that everywhere too.

[@MelLenoreReads]

YES I hope you enjoy both. They're so fun. The audio for the Stacia Stark is on Everand as well

[@TheHexedLibrary]

You crushed the first week! I've fallen into a slump this month and have only read two books so I'm not doing much for the team o.O

[@MelLenoreReads]

The slump is real. Any little bit helps though!

[@sarahstankovic5428]

😊❤

[@MariaMightReadThat]

The slump component made this extra challenging so I say you killed it! Love the sweaters 😍 Can I read Powerful before Powerless? I’m kind of on the fence about the main series. But friends to lovers 👀

[@MelLenoreReads]

You can but it will spoil part of the ending of powerless so I’m not sure I’d recommend it

[@MelLenoreReads]

I also think you’d be missing a decent about of context

[@floraaterra]

representing thrill seekers here!! loved this video :)

[@MelLenoreReads]

Let's go!

[@leeh4343]

Hehe the hun use in Powerful irritated me too - didn’t feel that it suited the character at all.

[@MelLenoreReads]

RIGHT

[@MelLenoreReads]

It made sense later but that explanation came way too late

[@kerisbookishcorner2864]

Haha I was over here laughing as I’m on thrill seekers and knew why you’d be choosing that shirt 🤣 I have more books in progress than ever before because I keep pausing some for new game tasks! I never thought of doing pick ups, I always see swapping screen time for reading but sad to say my time is way too high certain days to do that lol 😳 How do you see how many pick ups? I’m intrigued now

[@MelLenoreReads]

I also have WAY too much screen time to do that haha. You go to screen time then click see all app and website activity

[@kerisbookishcorner2864]

@@MelLenoreReads I’m glad it’s not just me lol And thanks, the pick ups is a little more manageable but still a challenge (similar to yours) so maybe I’ll try that.

[@elise85391]

Yeah, my screen time is really bad! Between screen time and work that’d be most of my waking hours👀 so that’s only doable on weekends when I’m not working lol

Maybe Brinn has made friends with the birds and they were just catching her up on their day.

[@MelLenoreReads]

LOL that or they were yelling at her to get out of here
