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.
This is a really busy week at work for me so I'm hoping to use the readathon as escapism. I'm going to have to be realistic though in that I'm not going to be able to read tooooo many books.
I definitely want to have a good crack at my rereads during the readathon. So I want to read Forever by Judy Blume and also That Fault In Our Stars By John Green.
I have a few audiobooks waiting to be listened to as well but I think the one I will go for is The Last Little Blue envelope by Maureen Johnson.
I have a few books waiting to be reviewed as well so I might get around to these. I've got You're the one That I Want by Giovanna Fletcher, The Travelling Tea Shop by Belinda Jones & Another Night Abother Day by Sarah Rayner. These are very much maybes on the pile.
So altogether I'm pledging to read 2 physical books & one audiobook during the readathon & anything else is a bonus.
I will do a wrap up post to let you know how I got on & let me know if you'd like a page count alongside that as well!
