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.

Hi there,
I’ve only done Dewey’s once & really loved the readathon so have been looking for a lower pressure one. This might just be it!
Omg so many bookish thoughts. Awesome list! I still really need to read Tiger Lily (got it for my birthday months ago D:). I read The Resurrectionist a couple weeks ago and was honestly very disturbed by it. Do you like really dark/creepy/macabre writing? If not maybe skip it….
