Hi Guys! “Happy” Monday! So I have decided to participate in another reading challenge, fresh off the heels of my Olympic Readathon. I find they really help me work on the ever growing TBR pile 🙂
Here is the official blurb of the reading challenge:
“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”
My Goal:
I’ve decided to read 5 books. That may not seem like a lot however, I’m back to the 5 day work week now(last weekend was a long weekend) so on average I normally read 3 books a week. I get to read on the train in the morning(20 minutes) as well as back home(20 minutes) and I’m going to commit to reading atleast one hour every night when I get home. I sometimes am able to read for 2 hours but I will commit atleast one hour every night for sure. I’m not going to pick an exact book pile to choose from, I’m just going to grab from this massive looming stack(and probably some of my August TBR) and go for it.
You can follow along daily if you like here. I’ll be posting my daily updates!
Is anyone else participating?
Happy Reading

5 books is a very respectable goal. Good luck and have fun!
