International Read in the Bathtub Day - Feb. 9

These days every day is some sort of holiday or marked to celebrate something. In fact, most days offer several things. For instance, January 27 is National Chocolate Cake Day, Local Quilt Shop Day, National Seed Swap Day, and more. But February 9th is a holiday worth celebrating here at BookHookup. It's International Read in the Bathtub Day! The origin of this celebrated day is unknown, but it is a popular pass time around the world, this day and everyday.


What the tub and reading have in common

When you think about it, reading and soaking in the tub are both relaxing pastimes. Both provide a reprieve from the stress and problems of the day as they whisk you away to another place or time. Sometimes even into another dimension. That is if you're reading for enjoyment. This day of celebration is not for reading a technical manual for work, or your physics chapters for homework, or any other obligatory reading. It's for fun! So pick up a book you WANT to read and enjoy!


 

I just finished ready Moneyland by Michael Botur and can't wait to read book 2 in the Lockdownland series so that's my choice for this trip into the land of bubbles and steam. If you're looking for a fantasy read, check out Dragonborn by Donna Sundblad. That's me. It's a captivating epic fantasy of love, magic, and adventure for readers young and old. A tale of sacrifice for the greater good in which Dragonborn and their dragons become seeds of change traveling through time to thwart evil in the future. (I'm almost finished with Shadowalkers (Dragonborn Saga book 2). 

For now, I'm off for a soak until I shrivel! Happy International Read in the Bathtub Day!
