Bout of Books 10!

Monday, April 21, 2014

This is my very first Bout of Books and I'm SUPER excited.  I've been in a reading slump since the
#24in48 (which is super annoying, since I read so much then).

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've grown my OWNED TBR stack by at least 30 in the past month, and I haven't read anything in the past 2 weeks - yikes! Soooo, that means I gotta kick ass in the next few weeks.  Dewey's 24 Hour Readathon is on Saturday 4/26, so ideally I should be able to make some progress. 

And then Bout of Books 10 begins on 5/12.  Hopefully I'll be able to wade through some of my unread collection...

  3. I'm so excited to be joining this read-a-thon, I always only find out about it too later the other times but not now, and it couldn't have come in a more perfect time!
