#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...

Community Spotlight - Interview with Paper Lanterns

Hello everyone! Welcome to Nox the Reader, I'm Nox, and today's post is an interview with Paper Lanterns, an online literary journal based in Ireland! Paper Lanterns logo was created by Eleanor Brayden I had the chance to interview the creators of Paper Lanterns - Grace Kelly, Ruth Ennis, and Amy O'Sullivan, and ask them questions about their inspiration behind the literary journal and what they do!

Book Trigger Warnings Wiki | Community Resource

Hey everyone! Welcome to Nox the Reader, I'm "Nox", and today I'm sharing an awesome community resource that my friends Jenny and Rob made: the Book Trigger Warnings Wikia! Jenny and Rob officially launched the website last Thursday, and the way it's set up is amazing! This is going to be a graphic-heavy post because I want to show y'all how easy it is to use. Anyone can view and explore the wiki, but in order to edit and add the triggers, you have to create an account. I'm not kidding when I say it took me less than a minute to set one up! You click where it says Anonymous in the top right corner, click Create Account, and you make a username and password! That's it! I love this idea because some of us have triggers that are oftentimes overlooked by others. If you're worried that a trigger won't be included, there's nothing better than including it yourself! If a book you've read isn't already on the wiki, you can create a pa...
