Bout of Books 39 Progress

Bout of Books is a week-long readathon held every January, May, and August. It’s low-pressure. There are optional reading sprints, Twitter chats, and Instagram challenges.

Bout of Books 39 is here! With everything that’s happened in the last 8 months, my reading has almost been non-existent. I’m really excited to get my reading on this week and hit 2024 running!

During the week as I participate in Bout of Books, I’ll keep track of my progress on this post. At the end of the week, I’ll post a wrap-up with my totals.

    Good luck with this challenge. You seem organized. I’d like to keep track of the pages I read each day as well. I’m not part of the challenge … but just to give me an idea of how much I’m reading per day. Cheers. & Happy 2024.

      Thank you, Susan! 😀 You should check out the app called Bookly. It times you while you read so you can see how many hours it takes you to read a book. I really love using it. Happy 2024 to you as well!

      Yeah, I enjoy seeing how much I read each day. I also use Bookly to help me keep track of the time I spend reading. I haven’t used Story Graph yet. I’ve heard of it. I need to check it out sometime.
