Comments: This week didn't go as well as the previous Bout of Books.  Having a full time job really put a dent in my reading time.  I just don't have that much time each day to devote to reading.  That being said, I am really excited about my accomplishments this week.  Four plus books, over 1200 pages read, and all things I liked.

Goals:

  • Read at least two books √
  • Review all books read √
  • Participate in at least 2 challenges -- failed miserably
  • Participate in at least 1 Twitter chat -- also failed

TBR Pile:

  • The Walking Dead Book 5
  • The Walking Dead Book 6
  • The Walking Dead Book 7
  • The Walking Dead Volume 17
  • The Walking Dead Book 8
  • Sixteen Brides (finished before readathon started)
  • Emma
  • The Hostage (in progress)

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, May 13th and runs through Sunday, May 19th 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 7.0 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. – From the Bout of Books team
