Anti Bullying Week Readathon discussion

Which books are you planning to read during the readathon? Feel free to post lists, links to TBR videos or blog posts... however you'd like to share your 'to be read' pile!

I'm planning on reading this..I've been wanting to read it for a long time.

Considering my pile of unread books, I would safe "Pushing the Limits" by Katie McGarry and "Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe" by Benjamin Alire Sáenz. Perhaps also "Fangirl" by Rainbow Rowell or "Forbidden" by Tabitha Suzuma.
I'm excited to see what you will read, perhaps I will find some other books to read :)

Hey! Thank you for hosting this readathon.
I'll be posting my tbr closer to the beginning date, but at the moment I'm considering Wonder, Eleanor and Park, and Ari&Dante. I know it could be hard for me to handle some other heavier books, but I'll search a little more.

I'm going to read The Merciless and Eleanor & Park. I've already read Wonder and Butter so I'll participate in any discussion for them too :)

If you make a TBR or update video please leave the link here in this thread and I'll add them all to the group homepage! :)

Ok, will do :)

Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe
The Merciless
Please Stop Laughing at Me... One Woman's Inspirational Story

This is my HUGE tbr. Like you Sarah bullying is a topic close to my heart having suffered as a teenager so I'm going to really focus on these books during the readathon week. And if I don't finish will be continuing the. Until I complete them all :)

I have a google spreadsheet of the books I'm gonna read, so excited for this.

I'm going to read as many Percy Jackson and the Olympians as possible!

I'm going to be reading Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson and Carrie by Stephen King

Oh! I'll read . I've owned it for awhile and haven't read it yet, this seems like a good opportunity for it!

Hi Sarah, thank you for the invitation to such a great cause.
I have written my own true tale of how I endured and then ended my bullying. I hope teenagers, ya's and parents can take inspiration from my book and that by finding your particular skill deep down in your soul, than you can be 'greater than your haters'

Thank you so much for hosting a readathon about such an important subject!
Unfortunately I'll probably be very busy studying because November is always a very busy month at uni, so right now I'm planning on reading Eleanor & Park. Hopefully I will be able to read a couple more, I'll see! :)

I will be reading "Wonder" by R. J. Palacio, "Eleanor & Park" by Rainbow Rowell, "Forgive me, Leonard Peacock" by Matthew Quick. If I have more time, I will read Jonathan Livingston Seagull :)

The book suggestion page is brilliant as I had no idea what books refer to bulling. Turns out I have one so I shall be reading this

Dawn O'Porter Paper Aeroplanes, might treat myself to another one as well if I can.

Hi all, I just want to play my part in supporting such a great campaign and as being a victim of bullying myself, I can resonate deeply with this subject and full respect to Sarah for promoting a campaign about this issue.
Please feel fee to watch my video relating to my book about how I battled back against my bullies
'The Rise Of The Verbal Villain'

I'll read Wonder by R. J. Palacio and i might buy Winger by Andrew Smith and read that one too since I've wanted that one for soo long!

Will hopefully try to get through all these during that week:

I'm doing NANOWRIMO so yeh, I'll be reading either 13 reasons why or the perks of being a wallflower but I haven't seen that on the shelves so don't know if it counts.
