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 17th and runs through Sunday, August 23rd in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure. There are challenges, giveaways, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 14 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team
My Goals:
- Read at least 3 books
- Complete at least 3 challenges

ReplyDeleteThanks, Kay! I'm doing my second read-a-thon (Beat the Heat) and so far, I'm not doing so great. But it's fun with all the mini challenges!
