Bout of Books Goals & Updates




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 13th and runs through Sunday, August 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 5.0 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. -From the Bout of Books 5.0 team

This is has been one of those weeks were work has totally kicked my butt. I really intended to get a lot of reading done after work, but it hasn't happened. I haven't even been able to watch tv. I hate weeks like this one! I intend to totally make up for it this weekend though!

GOALS:

To participate in twitter chats & to comment on at least 2 blogs a day and do at least one challenge. I've been in a rare non reading mood for the past week & it's set me back on review books. I'm hoping this will motivate me to get back on track!


To Finish:    Done ~Yay!
