2016 Love-A-Thon : Bookshelf Colors Challenge

loveathon

The Love-a-Thon is an event dedicated to spreading positivity and love. It’s time dedicated to visiting other bloggers/Instagrammers/BookTubers, leaving a comment or two, making new friends and fostering positivity among the members of our amazing community. Hosted by Alexa of Alexa Loves Books, Cee of The Novel Hermit, Hazel of Stay Bookish, Mel of The Daily Prophecy.

This challenge is specifically for BookTubers but it looks fun so why not try it with a normal blog post. Also, Cee at The Novel Hermit posted one too. All you have to do is to pick books based on their spine colors and then follow the prompts. Let’s do this.

RED
Flip to page 119, and find the first line of the third paragraph.
This line is the first sentence of a book about you.

„She put her hands on Yael’s shoulders.“
Wolf by Wolf by Ryan Graudin

I had a crush before named Yael. He’s the vocalist of Spongecola. I haven’t read this book yet but it’s on my 2016 TBR.

ORANGE
Flip to page 3. The first name you see when you
crack open the book is your book BFF.

Fudge
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by JK Rowling

QUESTIONNAIRE

IMG_18911. What’s your name? I’m Kathleen but I prefer Kath.

2. Where in the world are you blogging from? I’m currently living here in Hannover, Germany.

3. How did you get into blogging/bookstagraming in the first place? I’ve been blogging since 2009 (i think) but it’s more of a personal blog/online diary. My book blogging started 2 years ago when I noticed that most of my posts were book-related. I created a personal account on Instagram in 2012 then I saw Lotte’s account and in September 2014, I’ve decided to create my own bookstagram account.

4. How did you come up with your blog name? I have to admit that I had a hard time choosing my blog name. I chose „The Last Reader“ because I feel like I’m always the last one to read a certain book that everyone else has already read. I also read slow.

5. What genre do you read and review the most on your blog? Mostly Young Adult, Contemporary, Fiction, Thriller.
