Pages Read Today: 118 (Pride and Prejudice)

Pages Read Total: 1976

Challenges: None

Comments: Another case of me getting busy with life and forgetting to update and participate in challenges. Thankfully that did not mean that I forgot to read. After finishing The Host, I rented the movie and watched it to complete my review. That left me with the agony of choosing the next book. I decided to finish the readathon by starting Pride and Prejudice. And what a great choice! It's been a few years since I read this one. Diving in, the book felt like a return home. I am really enjoying rediscovering the world of Elizabeth Bennet. I don't want to rush through the novel, but I'm sure I'll finish in a few days.

Goals:

Read at least 1000 pages √
Commit to reading at least 2 hours a day √

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
