I loved making all the little illustrations for these (my personal favourite is the Everwrite Grimoire but the Scholars Sanctum Desk turned out perfect).
The addition of the scrolls to swap out prompts is such a game changer for me, as I'm trying to get my tbr down and actually read the books I own instead of buying new ones or reading books I don't own physically on apps like Everand. I know you always say that we can do what we want and nobody will check up if we adhere to the rules, but I love that now there is a system in place to allow for flexibility and an incentive to actually collect guild reputation points! Thank you so much, G, for your time and energy and all your creative ideas that make this read-a-thon such a special event that I love returning to each year. And thank you, Logan, for creating the most adorable illustrations for everything! They really help make this such an immersive experience! 💜
Im about to be working harder on my guild points math then I do on my real world finances lul. Thank you so much G, every year you out do yourself. I am so excited and this is all so cute.
Even though I haven't been able to participate in the past two years, I still get sooooo exciting when a new semester is announced. I love seeing your creativity thay doesn't seem to run out no matter how long you've been doing this. I hope to be able to participate this year. But if life gets in the way like usual i'm glad there's an 'official' way to skip lol.
I just discovered the readathon a couple of days ago, and I'm amaze of your work 👏👏 I love this challenge buy I've a really busy end of year (and want to do the things properly, I watch a lot of your videos yesterday) so I hope to begin the novice path at the beginning of next year and be prepared to my first Spring equinox. I'll prepare a separated reading journal for the Magical Readathon. I'm excited to start but I need to wait. I love that desk, amazing.
The fact I've done the Spring Equinox before....but it was in 2022...so I'm gonna just jump into Autumn Equinox and say I've been on a 2-year-long gap year 😄. Hopefully this helps me get through the remainder of my owned books (yes, G, I now actually have an owned tbr I need to get through, hehe). Only problem is I don't remember my points from the 2022 S. Equinox, so I'm starting from scratch, but my character Clioterra after two years says hello again heh
I know this video basically just went up but I already have my 12 book tbr figured out (I like to do all three tiers in the classes I need regardless of what's required for the calling)
Oh, G, I love this so much! I can't wait to start the new semester and do some shopping... Unfortunately, I never actually counted my guild points (and I've been here since the beginning of Orilium). So I guess I will have to look through all my notes and do some maths first. 😭
I'm new here, but I'm really keen to dive in and have a go this month, I've never joined a readathon before and this looks so fun. Found this from Becca and the Books too, also new to me. I'm not sure how I've only discovered booktube! Although my book shelves and my bank account are happy I hadn't earlier.
You always go above and beyond for these, thank you so much! Also I vote for September for the future autumn semester as well. And the Emporium - such a great idea, I love it! Definitely makes it more exciting to collect points since we can use them however we want and however many we want
This is, of course, INCREDIBLE! Time for me to do some mathing because i have jotted down guild points but it has been a while since I've added them up! 😂 I love the Scholar's Sanctum! Could really use that tidying feature. Probably will spring for the library shelf first!
The amount of work that you and Logan put into this every year is INSANE. I'm so excited! I was a bit curious about the Year in Aeldia challenge. Are the August and September prompts being swapped? Does the story of the Year in Aeldia work alongside the Lore sidequest? Either way I'm excited to participate in both, I'm just curious about how they all work together :) Thank you so much for all your hardwork and I hope you have a great nap and a bunch of chocolate to end your night!
Omg I knew I forgot something haha yes! We can swap August and September and if you missed it because of it you can still catch up when you get a chance 💜😂
I'm so excited for this and the fact that each year you keep improving this readathon blows my mind. 🌠🌠Also didn't know if you knew this but the 22nd September is the actual Autumn Equinox.
LOVE the guild emporium as I was definitely starting to feel like my guild points were just going to max out and this definitely gives me some motivation to get them again now :)
Yay it is finally here! I have reserves of energy for Autumn equinox! Loving the revamp of the guild points, I need to go into detail through all of it but I think the wanderer´s tent stole my heart! 😍 So so excited about September now! 📚✨
YAY! This was soooo good! I'm so glad to see how the Guild Emporium ended up turning out, after it was mentioned in sprints the last semester! Your and Logan's work on this is amazing! 💜
this is crazy! I remember joining the *other* readathon during the pandemic and it really helping me! I was kind of sad when it ended and had no idea you came back with your own amazing concept! so excited to join now (even if I'm like 3 years late)
This is going to be my first magical readathon and I am so thrilled that I can fill all the prompts with my physical tbr. The only thing though that I am a slow reader so I am not quite sure if I can finished 5 books in this month (usually only able to finish 3 books).
I'm really loving the new Guild Emporium! I've got over 500 points and I'm definitely going to spend almost all of that right away lol - first priority is the Artificer's Cauldron!!
I can't wait to start reading! I was wondering if by any chance there was a document in the Drive or it was possible to have a summary of all the ways in which it is possible to collect guild points? Thank you very much for your work!
I haven’t actually been tracking my guild points and there’s no way that I can get it completely accurate lmao like all those wee ones given out in live streams and stuff but I will attempt to go back and figure out the basic ones (somehow😭). Thanks as usual! excited about the new extra dndness added in with the dice hehe
I’m so excited!! 😆 This will be my very first readathon, but I have heard and seen others partake in this exact readathon and have always found it to be so fun! I love these prompts so much!! Can’t wait to embark on this magical reading journey ☺️✨
I love the updates to the guild emporium!! It's going to add so much fun to the readathon!! I definitely am buying the desk of many things and the companions!
I’ve never participated but I am excited to join in this session. It will probably be a mess this time but hopefully I’ll get the hang of it and continue on next year as well!
I'm so excited! I like the guild pts change -- being able to buy one-time-use scrolls to help out is great option. Plus getting Stuff -- shopping here I come 😂 My implings need things 😆
I’ve finally graduated and have free time to join this! I was wondering if there is chance to catch up on the year prompts and gain points for previous months?
I have just realized my current favorite perfume is literally called “midnight fantasy” … TECHNICALLY fruity plum and cherry notes but like…I HAVE to do a fantasy right 😂
This is going to be the first time I participate in the Readathon I am so excited. I have Chosen that I am going to be an "Illusionist Rogue" I am so excited
Ah! This is so fun! Very excited for the prompts (Faewild Cartographer novice here) amd The Guild Emporium! Definitely starting with a Bog Frog and the Everwrite Grimoire and then hoarding the rest of my points until I can get the Scholar's Sanctum.
Can't wait to see what everyone is planning for this semester. TBRs, planners, ****** that we learned about in the video 😍. And all recomendations to the prompts!
omg g you really need to make this into a game format that would be so fun 🥹 like we can actually play and purchase all the things and track our books and semesters and all that jazz 🤤
So excited that I dont need Q in Elemental studies because I just read House of Flame and Shadow....I could not do 935 pages with all of the other books!
very excited! everything sounds awesome. hope i can finally actually complete it this time 😅💪 question, can subtitles count for the all the letters of your name in the title prompt? its a rly cool prompt but w o w my name is screwing me over
I stumbled on this readathon this morning, spent some time exploring the discord and some videos, and it sounds absolutely incredible. You get to create a character, in a world that seems so rich in lore, to go to a magic school, and it is a readathon ? everything is so full of flavor, I'm so excited to join, I just have no idea if I should rather wait for next year, prepare my character, maybe do the Novice Path or stuff like that, and go into it more fully in 2025, or if me finding this just before the Autumn Equinox readathon is a sign that it is where I should start.
@@shannonwirsching2016 I've been taking time yesterday to make a character, I just need to choose his Calling and I am set, so yeah I am choosing to see it as the sign to start now, thank you !
@@BookRoast Oh for sure! My Impling would claw my eyes out if I didn't get him the bed and Shadow wolf to lounge on. Just looked through files and I wanted to ask if the Guild Emporium pdf will also come with white background or if it's going to be just the parchment background version. No pressure, just want to know if I should print it now or wait for the white background.
