Love-a-Thon: The Bookshelf Colors Challenge


Hello Poetteers,


While participating in Love-A-Thon I found one of the challenges I didn't do. It is originally made for booktube since they are trying to expand to different platforms. I know it's late since Love-A-Thon is now over yet I still wanted to share my answers.

Thank you to the lovely hosts Alexa (Alexa Loves Books), Cee (The Novel Hermit), Hazel (Stay Bookish) & Mel (The Daily Prophecy) for another great weekend of Love-A-Thon.

You’ll need to pick books based on the color of their spines as listed below, and then follow the prompts:

RED: Flip to page 119, and find the first line of the third paragraph. This line is the first sentence of a book about you. 

"Clearly filming was still going on, but of a scene that didn't need the huddle of locals in their Regency outfits."

ORANGE: Flip to page 3. The first name you see when you crack open the book is your book BFF.

 
Grace is my book BFF. 

YELLOW: Flip to page 185. The first body part mentioned is where your superpower is.


My superpower comes from my head.

GREEN: Flip to page 238. The first place mentioned is where your book is set.


My book will be set at Marlowe's Bookstore (perfect!)

BLUE: Flip to page 45. The first name you see when you crack open the book is your book boyfriend/girlfriend.



 Cassidy is my book girlfriend.

PURPLE: Flip to page 77. The first adjective used describes your book boyfriend.


My book girlfriend is intelligent. 

PINK: Flip to page 94. The first name you see is your fictional nemesis.


 My fictional nemesis is Tami (that hurts!)

BROWN: Flip to page 216. The first object you see is your weapon of choice.


A phone is my weapon.

BLACK: Flip to pages 198, 228 & 146, and find one name on each page. These people will be your apocalypse squad.



My squad consists of Muna, Majid and Elizabeth.

WHITE: Flip to page 28, and find the second sentence of the fifth paragraph. This is the last thing you will ever say in your book. (Or is it?)


Apparently the last thing I will say is, "See, you will wear this for a short while."

This was fun to do and that's a wrap! Until next year,

Fida

I'm so glad you did this challenge! I had a blast doing it. Superpower coming from your head? BRAIN POWER. ;D

I am really jealous of your setting. I want my story to be placed in a bookstore!

#LoveAThon Mini Challenge 4

Hello Poetteers, This challenge is all about mash-ups. We have to put together our bookish life with a non-bookish passion. It's easy once you know your passion. I love reading and writing stories and poetry. I love music, food and travel. I want to travel everywhere. Backpack in Europe. Explore Asia. Help Arabia. Try all the different foods. Probably with the characters of PAPER TOWNS. They have a good plan in place. You got to listen to music when you're driving or on a plane. UNWRITTEN is a bookish song. Or anything Natasha Bedingfield. Or anything bought for my phone. I just like background noise when I read or write. Yet I like to hang out with the songs I first heard of when introduced to music, instead of the newer ones. Maybe in our travels and meals we bump into my favorite artists and get to do some cool stuff like write, sing or just explore with them. At the end and even during the adventures I'd keep a journal of poetry and what we did. There I got everything I...
