F.R.I.E.N.D.S Readathon | My First Readathon of 2021!

New year means starting a new readathon! Whether you want to join in more readathons or take this slow, or even going solo reading, this is your reminder to do you and do what makes you comfortable reading wise.

Right! So F.R.I.E.N.D.S is my favorite tv show, it never fails to make me laugh and is the only show capable of fixing my bad mood or stressful day. So when the powers of book twitter bought this readathon announcement on my timeline I was fangirling. HARD.

This is literally a match made in heaven.

The readathon is created by Tyra and the Books, and I’ll link up her video and the official twitter account of the FRIENDS readathon so you can check it out!

Mainly the prompts are based on iconic quotes said by the main characters.You have the choice to mix and match between characters or decide to only do one character.

There are extra fun challenges that are optional called “Life challenges” which includes watching episodes or seasons of the tv show. OR recreating a meal from the show! (I’m doing Phoebe’s famous oatmeal cookies taken from Anna @Books, Baking, and Blogging , and I might order an extra large pizza Joey style 😉)

I’m really hoping I’ll enjoy this one, and I couldn’t have started 2021 on a more positive note!

Prompts

Since I literally cherish all of these characters (Ross maybe less), I decided to do one prompt under each character. If other prompts fit the book chosen I’ll add them up and this way I get to cross out more prompts 😊

The quotes I’ve decided to go with:

• Rachel: “He’s so pretty I want to cry” – Read a beautiful book
• Monica: “I’m breezy!” – Read whatever you want
• Chandler: “I’m hopeless and awkward and desperate for love”. – Read a book with a romance.
• Phoebe: “Sweet lord this is what evil must take like.” – Read a book with a villain.
• Joey: “Is this friendship? I think so!” – Read a book with a friendship.
• Ross: “Unagi”. – Read a name that you misname or pronounce incorrectly. (Settings and characters are accepted).

TBR

For Rachael’s quote I went with my illumicrate edition of Spinning Silver, it’s absolutely gorgeous with foiled detailing, sprayed edges, and a special slip in bookcase! Worth crying over lol.

Ross’s pick includes me butchering setting names in A Curse so Dark and Lonely in particular the locations: “IIshellasa Ice Forest” and “Syhl Shallow”. 😂
