Bout of Books 18

Bout of Books 18
The Bout of Books read-a-thon is organized by Amanda @ On a Book Bender and Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal. It is a week long read-a-thon that begins 12:01am Monday, January 2nd and runs through Sunday, January 8th in whatever timezone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure. There are challenges, giveaways, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 18 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. -From the Bout of Books team

Happy New Year!

I'm so excited for another Bout of Book read-a-thon. With the holiday season just coming to a close, I desperately want to reestablish a rhythm for reading and blogging. And here's the list I'm hoping will help me with that endeavor:

-The Autobiography of Mrs. Tom Thumb by Melanie Benjamin
-Because You're Mine by Colleen Coble
-Buried Memories by Carol J. Post
-It Started With Goodbye by Christina June
-Maisie Dobbs by Jacqueline Winspear
-Misery Loves Company by Rene Gutteridge
-The Raven King by Maggie Stiefvater

And throughout this read-a-thon week, I'll be posting here with my progress.

Happy reading!

  1. Happy reading to you!! Good luck with your reading goals this round of BOB. I am having a blast so far and have just finished my first book around 2pm... It's wet and rainy where I live, which has made it easy to stay indoors and focus on reading. :-)

  3. Looks like you did well in this round of BOB!! I completed my reading goals for BOB and then some.

    I also had fun participating in a few of the readathon challenges and posting comments on other people's blogs throughout the week.

    Have fun reading the rest of the year and hope to see you in the next BOB Readathon!!
