September Reading Challenge

Donate to Elin and help them hit their goal of £150!

I'm taking on a Reading Challenge in September for Teenage Cancer Trust

This September, I'm taking on my own reading challenge and raising funds to help ensure no young person faces cancer alone. I'm taking on the challenge for Teenage Cancer Trust, the only UK charity who provides specialised nursing care and support for young people with cancer. I'd be grateful for your support.

Your donation, big or small, makes a difference. £25 could pay for an hour with a Youth Support Coordinator to help a young person cope with anxiety and isolation during cancer treatment. 

Thank you!

My Updates

Fifth Read Completed - And Every Morning The Way Home Gets Longer and Longer

Tuesday 29th Sep
Read this yesterday. Wow such a great book, albeit a short one. One of the most heartbreaking and surreal books I have read all year. Brought many a tear to my eye. 5/5

Fourth Read Completed - The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion Vol 3

Tuesday 29th Sep
Good easy read! Charming but quite confusing in places. 3.5/5

Third Read Completed - Yesteryear

Tuesday 29th Sep
As it's coming to the end of the end of the month and therefore the end of the challenge I am updating my page. Read this book mid-way through the month and really really enjoyed it. Interesting plot as the story was told through the lens of an awful, morally corrupt, unreliable narrator. Would recommend! 5/5

Second Read Completed - Nobody’s Girl by Virginia Giuffre

Monday 7th Sep
Such a powerful book…raw and unputdownable. 5/5

First Read Completed - Talking at Night by Claire Daverley

Monday 7th Sep
Just finished my first read (Talking at Night by Claire Daverley) Really loved this book, reminded me of Sally Rooney’s writing. Would recommend! 4.5/5

Updating My Target!

Wednesday 2nd Sep
Wow! Before this challenge has even properly kicked off we have achieved the initial target goal of £150! Thank you so much to everyone who has shared this so far and already donated! I will be updating the goal and hopefully we can help raise even more money for a great cause! Thank you x

Almost There...!

I am writing this quick update to say that we are just over halfway to our goal of £150! I am so grateful for all the donations so far...! 

Reading for Teenage Cancer Trust

Monday 24th Aug
Monday 24th August 2026

This September, I will be reading 30 pages everyday for Teenage Cancer Trust! So by the end of September, I will have read at least 900 pages for Teenage Cancer Trust.

I had seen various different people participate in the September Reading Challenge and thought I would give it a good go myself - all in aid of an amazing cause...! I also plan on sharing regular updates on my progress here - so keep a lookout!

From a very young age I have loved reading and therefore sought a sense of solace from getting completely lost in a story. So, I'm hoping to put my hobby to good use by supporting and raising money for an amazing cause - one that can provide dedicated wards and expert teams to those with Cancer.

Thank you to my Sponsors
