I am so excited that it is finally August and the Magical Readathons continue once again! This is my second year doing these readathons and I have to say Book Roast does an amazing job. Earlier this year I participated in the Owls, you can find those posts here: Wrap Up | #OWLsReadathon2019 , Middle Mark | #OWLsReadathon2019 Update and April TBR | OWLs Magical Readathon 2019. This year I decided to go for Herbology since I have been loving gardening and flowers this year on top of the fact that I am a proud Hufflepuff. I plan on continuing this journey to becoming a herbologist with these exams. Without more ramblings, here are my exams and the books I am planning on reading. 
-Mandatory-
Herbology
- A: Audiobook: Emma by Jane Austen
- E: Between 350-390 pages: Bringing Down the Colonial by Patricia Miller
- O: Flowers on the Cover: Everything Under by Daisy Johnson
Potions
- A: Friends Fav: Thunderhead by Neal Shusterman *cough* Jenna, Reg *cough*
- E: Yellow on the Cover, Yay Hufflepuff!: Drums of Autumn by Diana Gabaldon
Care of Magical Creatures
- A: Book that stars with A: The Alienist by Caleb Carr
-Bonus-
Arithmancy
- A: Ends in an even number: Endless Night by Agatha Christie
Just like last year, my most up to date NEWTs News will be over on twitter, but I will be updating half way through the month of August via my Middle Mark post. The readathon will be using the hashtag I know that the readathons official tag is #NEWTsReadathon2019 and the readathon also has a twitter of their own, you can find that here: is @MagicalReadthn.
Best of luck on your exams everyone!
What NEWTs are you taking? Which profession are you trying to become qualified in? Any fun books you picked to read?

Best of luck with the readathon! I’m so excited the N.E.W.Ts have returned. 😀 I’ve given myself a few options, but I’ll mainly be aiming for History of Magic, DADA, Astronomy and Potions – I’m hoping I can achieve an O in all of them!
One of these days I need to give something by Neal Shusterman a try. 🙂

Thank-you Jess and best fo luck to you as well! I can say I did not expect to like his work as much as I did, which usually happens the other way around so I was quite happy.

I’m doing the NEWTs too! I decided on Librarian for the OWLs in April so I’m sticking with that, which means I have 7 books I need to read I think 🤔. Good luck!

Thanks so much! I was able to read Thunderhead yesterday so I am off to a good start. I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. Now I need to wait until November for the next one.
