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, January 7th and runs through Sunday, January 13th 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 6.0 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. -From the Bout of Books 6.0 team

I'm going back to school this week as well! With my weekend totally booked, I'm going to be squeezed for time. But I think 3 books is definitely an achievable goal! I also love your goal of participating in 5 challenges, I plan to participate in a few as well. That's so neat that you have a copy of Espionage & Etiquette, I'm definitely looking forward to reading that one! I hope it's as great as it sounds. =)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your goals, and happy reading! <3
