I’ve been seeing these readathons going around a lot lately and I figured I should give one a try! I missed the O.W.L.s Magical Readathon, but I thought I would just jump in with this one anyway. These readathons were created by the incredible G over at Book Roast. For this readathon, you need to choose a profession, then complete the N.E.W.T.s prompts to receive the grades required for your chosen career. It was insanely difficult to choose a career as there are so many amazing ones! But I decided—since I’m a psychology major—to choose the Mind Medic profession.

You have such a wonderful TBR for the NEWTs! I am taking part again this year, I am going for Herbology. I have about 6 books I must read, but I have 7 planned to hopefully get a little more than I need. Best of luck in all of your exams. 🙂
