It's time for a Bout of Books Read-a-Thon!
From January 7th to January 13th there will be another Bout of Books Read-a-thon hosted by the lovely Amanda from On a Book Bender and Kelly from Reading the Paranormal. It is a week long read-a-thon that begins 12:01am Monday, January 7th and runs through Sunday, January 13th in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure, and the only reading competition is between you and your usual number of books read in a week. There are challenges, giveaways, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 6.0 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. There's still enough time fro you to sign up and if you wanto you can check the schedule here.
Today it's time to write down my goals for this read-a-thon. Unfortunatly my life (work, uni, studying, etc.) will start again by Monday so I cannot devote as much time to reading as I would like but I will still try to focus my attention to reading in my spare time.
My Goals
- I want to read at least 1 hour a day
- I want to visit more blogs during Bout of Books and comment.
- I want to enjoy this week of reading, rambling and being surrounded by bookish people.

Oh I nearly forgot this started tomorrow! I always leave my book choices until the last minute, because I've never got any idea what I'm reading next!
ReplyDeleteHello, just dropping by through Bout of Books! I love your header image by the way - so creative. It helps that The Eyre Affair is one of my favourite books ;)
ReplyDeleteI didn't really decide on a list of books to read either. I posted some books I MIGHT read (but I NEVER stick to those!) and that's about it.
Good luck with the rest of the read-a-thon!
I loved First Grave in the Right, I read it like I was on a read-a-thon, couldn't put it down. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat progress so far ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat progress and congrats for completing two books.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work.
Okay, you have Gilmore Girls AND How I Met Your Mother in your header - I like you already!
ReplyDeleteHope you're having another fab day of reading (how is it day 3 already?!) and congrats on your progress so far!
