Goals:

• Read at least 1000 pages (better milestone for me than books completed)
• Commit to reading at least 2 hours a day

TBR Pile (I won't get to all these, I know, but a wide selection seems to work better than to limit myself to a small set of books):

• The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison Allen
• Sandman Vol. 6 by Neil Gaiman
• Sandman Vol. 7 by Neil Gaiman
• Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
• The Host by Stephenie Meyer
• Winnie the Pooh by A.A. Milne
• Fun Home by Alison Bechdel
• The New Deadwardians
• American Vampire

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, August 19th and runs through Sunday, August 25th 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 8.0 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team
