Hey all, because I am so super behind and busy, here’s me throwing my hat into the Bout Of Books 10 ring on the day it begins!
Here’s what Bout Of Books is all about:
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 12th and runs through Sunday, May 18th 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 10 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. – From the Bout of Books team
I think I may do like Quinn and give myself the goal of reading two hours per day. I don’t have a certain set number of books I want to read. I would like to make progress on my books to read by BEA pile. Here’s my potential picks:
I’ve already started Starling and A Little Too Far.

Welcome to the party!! 🙂 Enjoy your reads!
Seriously awesome books in your stack! I quite enjoyed Love Letters to the Dead and I hope you do too. The Art of Lainey, Counting by 7s and Summer and Bird also look like great choices.
Happy readathon-ing. You will rock this!
Wildthorn for sure – at least if it’s the one I’m thinking of. I really enjoyed that story.
Oo, I like the time goal. I had originally hoped to do a book a day at least, but that has already not worked out despite reading for about six hours today. Good luck!
Good luck! That’s pretty similar to my goal of two hours plus however long I read at bed. That’s a pretty good-looking stack of books you’ve got there! I hope you like Wildthorne more than I did. It looked/sounded so good but it just didn’t work for me.
I really enjoyed SIDE EFFECTS MAY VARY and COUNTING BY 7s. All of the other books on your pile are things I would love to get to eventually. Best of luck as you readathon!
That’s a nice stack you got there! I haven’t read any of those but I love the title “Side Effects May Vary”. Good luck.
I’m glad you’re joining in for Bout of Books. I love this readathon. Have fun!
Happy reading, April! I decided, last minute, to join in on the Bout of Books fun too. So far, I’ve gotten two down and started a third 🙂
