Books Songs and Other Magic | Monthly Wrap Up February 2024 @bookssongsandothermagic | Uploaded March 2024 | Updated October 2024, 7 hours ago.
This is my February Wrap up - a month where lots of things happened on the channel and I read a lot of books!
I finished my own seasonal event, Winter of Wyndham, (and am really grateful to the people that got involved in it too) as well as taking part in;
"All about Holly" created by @anotherbibliophilereads @badrad9226 and
@bighardbooks770 where we read the Stephen King books that feature his character Holly Gibney.
I also mentioned an event I am host of, the Historathon event, and that is:
Historathon is a year-long celebration of reading historical nonfiction. The goal is to read, discuss, and spotlight works of history, and to encourage reluctant readers to give history a try. The calendar year will be divided into three-month blocks, with each block focusing on a particular period of time:
Jan-March = Prehistory-500 CE
April-June = 500-1500
July-Sept = 1500-1820
Oct-Dec = 1820-Present
To participate, simply read a work of history that falls into the time period for each quarterly segment of the year. Read more if you’d like! Tailor the choices to your interests or try something completely new.
Historathon "Side Quests": We will also be encouraging/participating in history-related activities throughout the year, including watching historical films/documentaries, trying historical recipes, listening to historical music, etc. Feel free to join us!
We will be using the hashtag: #historathon2024

I also mentioned the #24BB Banned Books event hosted by MJ at Reading this life - @M-J
There was also the Filmtastic February event created by @ObscureBookAdventures which dominated the early part of the month for me.
AND there was the wasted weekend, a spin-off of Garbaugust, created by @CriminOllyBlog
