Bout of Books 7.0


Bout of Books

I'm joining in on the fun that is bout of books 7.0!
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 13th and runs through Sunday, May 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 7.0 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team

I'm working on finishing my last two semesters of my undergrad (215 days to go!) and sometimes get wrapped up in the stress of school and don't read as much as I should so I decided to do bout of books to get myself into gear.

Goals:

-Read at least two of the books below
-Discover new blogs

Books:

I've given myself a few to choose from. I've been book ADD lately, so I'm giving myself some freedom.

  1. How did you enjoy Throne of Glass? I read it a few months back and liked it more at the beginning than I did at the end. I want to read Tiger Lily at some point as well, it sounds really good. Good luck with the rest of your goals.

  2. I love your picks. Tiger Lily happens to be one of the best fairytale retellings I've read so far (and I read many, because it's my favorite genre) Throne of glass & Shadow and bone are both AMAZING books. So yeah, happy reading and good luck!
