So this is far from my first read-a-thon
(I just finished 2!) But this is my FIRST BoB readathon. I have heard nothing but great things about this readathon. I hear it is very fun and interactive. Which I love the idea of!
So what is Bout of Books read-a-thon?
"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 18th and runs through Sunday, August 24th 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 11 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team"
As for my goals- I have no idea yet. It is still a ways off (3 more weeks). What I do know is that since I have lots of notice for this I can schedule some good read times in.
August 15 UPDATE:
Okay so here are some goals I have.
My goals: at least 4 books/1000 pages.
Hopefully more but there has been a lot going on so I want to be practical right now.
I have 2 ARC reading challenges I am working on plus some library books coming up due so those will be my focus. Sorry I don't have any titles but it is still 3 days away and so much can change.
This is an amazing readathon, I think you'll really enjoy participating in it!
ReplyDeleteI did one a while back and really enjoyed it! I plan on doing it again this time around!
