Dang, your February was intense, lol. Adding Death of a Fool to my TBR, I haven't heard of that author so I need to check it out! Awesome sounding books, good luck with the readathon!!!

I love Christie but I've never heard of Marsh. I will definitely be checking her out soon. I'm also trying to get into poetry but I don't really know what makes a good poem, I guess it depends on the person and the poem, though. I heard about Into the Go-Slow from Dominique too, and put it on my list but I just forgot about it. Too many books to keep up with.

I hate I didn't know about this Readathon in advance! I'm reading Forty Acres in March too. It is underhyped, but everyone who reads it loves it. Enjoy the readathon!

+Mickey's Booktube Experiment Yes I really enjoy being able to compare thoughts. I planning to post a book talk about it at the end of the month

Oh. You put me on something with Marsh. Now I gotta go run and see what this author is about! I'm slowly, slowlyyyyy for some reason making my way around to getting Forty Acres off my wishlist. It's part of the thrill-I've contest. But it's happening THIS year. Hope to hear your thoughts on it soon.

Great video - I hope you're enjoying the readathon! :) Im actually listening to Death on the Nile by Agatha Christie on audiobok atm (really liking it!), and Ive never heard of Marsh before, so it'll be interesting to hear your thoughts on it :) The poetry collection looks so beautiful - a couple of months ago I read Letters to a Young Poet by Reiner Maria Rilke, and I really enjoyed it, so I hope you'll like his poetry as well :) Happy reading! xx

I'm so sad I hadn't heard about this until now. Just saw Miranda's video. This has me curious about checking the number of ratings on the books I own. But I'm certainly going into March with this concept in mind.

I totally spent a large part of Thursday cataloging my bookshelves on Goodreads in order to figure out which ones had low ratings. Some of them were surprising. I think this readathon happens twice a year (don't quote me on that). If not, I think it would be a great theme for a reading month. There's a lot of books on my shelves I've been neglecting because I've been reading the newer more hyped reads.

Yay for Forty Acres! I think people are afraid of that book and Smith is working on a part 2. It's a fast read. It reads like a movie. Good luck with the read along! I think you'll do well because you've chosen a mixed bag of choices. You won't get bored with those books. Very interested to hear what you have to say about Into the Go-Slow! I haven't picked it up yet. Hope you'll be doing a review on it. :) Underhyped read Daughter by asha bandele!

Thanks DiDi! I tried to pick an eclectic bunch and all of them except Forty Acres are less than 300 pages. Daughter is definitely on my radar. I feel like a few people in our corner of Booktube have hauled that one recently, thanks to you ;)

I hope you'll like Forty Acres. It definitely reads quickly. If you have the time you could read it in a day. Well Good luck Girl You can read them all! Looking forward to your reviews on them too. :)

Hey, nice video! I just started the Underhyped Readathon and I have read A Sheltered Woman by Yiyun Li, it's a short story that's beautifully written. After that, I'm not sure! I have an Italian thriller by Massimo Carlotto and some other Chinese fiction (A Concise Chinese-English Dictionary for Lovers by Xiaolu Guo and Decoded by Mai Jia). I feel like not a lot of people on Goodreads read a lot of Chinese fiction (or, at least, none of the people I follow~) and have really low ratings so we'll see how I go. Good luck and happy reading!

I know very little about Chinese literature so that doesn't surprise me at all. Do you have a Twitter or can you add me on Goodreads? I'd love to hear your thoughts on the books you're reading for the readathon and maybe get some more recommendations of other great books Chinese or otherwise.

You've picked some fantastic books! Did you mention if this was your first time participating? I think this is such a great movement that Charlotte started. I hope you enjoy your experience and get through a bunch of these. Will you do a wrap up of the Readathon? I'd like to know what you thought of some of these.

This is my first time participating. It's really cool because since joining Booktube I've found I've skewed a bit more towards reading the popular books of the moment and I've sort of neglected some of the lesser known books on my to-read list. Definitely will do a wrap-up. Maybe even individual reviews if I feel the books warrant it. Are you participating Liz?

I am currently reading an underhyped book but I'm not officially participating.
