#Hamilthon TBR

Hey look, it's Nox coming back to you with another TBR she won't finish.

Hi everyone, welcome to Nox Reads, I'm "Nox", and today I'm shaming the Internet for not telling me that there is going to be a month-long readathon based on one of my favorite musicals.

Foxes and Fairytales is just killing it with the readathons. She hosted #Mythothon back in November (which I meant to participate in but completely failed at...whoops?) This is the link to her original post about #Hamilthon.

Alexander Hamilton - Read a Book With A Name in the Title
My Plain Jane (The Lady Janies, #2)

I've never actually read Jane Eyre, but I saw the movie in AP English and it was pretty good (I know, I know), so I'm excited about this retelling! I think what I'm most excited for is to see Charlotte Bronte as a character! I love that they made her a part of her own story. Also, having Jane as a medium is interesting, and I wonder it'll drive the story.

The Reynolds Pamphlet - Read Something Short

Fruits Basket, Vol. 4

I need to finish Fruits Baskets! The manga is short enough that I can finish it within the hour - I might even read two! I adore the characters in the series (especially Kyo) and how something crazy always happens. I can't wait to continue with the series!

The World Was Wide Enough - Not Set in My Country

The Gilded Wolves (The Gilded Wolves, #1)

I received The Gilded Wolves in my January OwlCrate box, and I'm buddy-reading it this month! From what I've heard, I believe the book is set in France in the 1800s, so this definitely counts for the prompt! I don't know much about the book, but I'm excited to get into it. I believe there's a diverse cast of characters and a heist, and I'll do my best to not compare it to Six of Crows.

Helpless - Book with Romance

Muse of Nightmares (Strange the Dreamer, #2)

I am in love with Strange the Dreamer and I need Muse of Nightmares now!
Since the first book had such a strong relationship between Sarai and Lazlo, I'm assuming that the second will too, so it definitely counts for this prompt!

My Shot - Read a Standalone

Radio Silence

I'm buddy-reading this as well (so many buddy reads, so little time) and I've heard a lot of good things about this! I'm excited to get into it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With these books, the character I end at will be the one, the only, Alexander Hamilton himself!

I'm pretty sure that I can read another path too, but considering my track record with readathons and TBRs, I'm not going to get too ahead of myself. Thank you for reading, and I hope you have an awesome day!

A Guide to Anti-Racist Resources | #blacklivesmatter #sayhisname

Hi everyone. Welcome to Nox the Reader, and today I'm sharing a compiled list of different anti-racist resources that I've seen shared on Bookstagram and Twitter. Please note: THIS LIST IS EVER-EVOLVING AND EXPANDING. AS I GATHER MORE INFORMATION, I WILL BE ADDING IT TO THIS GUIDE. IF THERE'S ANYTHING YOU FEEL I SHOULD ADD, PLEASE DM ME ON TWITTER @nox_reads, OR COMMENT DOWN BELOW. Before I share this list, all I want to say is that I'm mad as hell and I'm tired. My dad always shared stories about living in Inglewood in the 90s during the time of Rodney King and the LA Riots. And it's almost 30 years later and nothing has changed. I've grown up surrounded by names as hashtags and videos cycled through the media and it's infuriating  and heartbreaking and exhausting . And a lot of us are wondering what to do, how to break this system and burn it to the ground. And it starts with educating ourselves and uplifting the voices of others. In this list are book...

Hi everyone! Welcome to Nox the Reader, I'm "Nox", and today I'm talking about Shea Ernshaw's books  The Wicked Deep  and  Winterwood .          "We wait for death. We hold our breath.

Book Ramble - One of Us is Lying

Hi everyone! Welcome to Nox Reads, I'm "Nox", and this is my book ramble for  One of Us is Lying  by Karen M. McManus, a solid  PROBABLY WON'T REREAD.  "That's the kind of person you can get away with killing: someone everyone else wants dead." TRIGGER WARNING: Death, alcohol, drugs, mentions of suicide -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- S P O I L E R - F R E E  T A L K  Right off the bat, I have to say: I  had  to read this book. It's the Breakfast Club with a murder in it, how could I not? And of course, they make a joke about it in the book (Simon saying that they're all walking 80's movies stereotypes). It was such an interesting concept to me, a combination of some of my favorite things: retellings, mystery, and murder (in  stories . Obviously I do not condone actually murder.  Please don't murder people. This has been a PSA. )...
