That’s it! Another Bout of Books has come and gone. I had a great time focusing on my reading this week. I only participated in the Instagram challenge on the first day, though, oh well.

I hope everyone who participated had just as much fun as I did. Thank you, Amanda and Kelly, for all the hard work you put into making Bout of Books as much fun as it is each and every time!

Don’t forget that the next Bout of Books is May 13 to 19, 2024.

How was your week? Did you meet your goals?

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.

Are you participating in Bout of Books 39? What do you plan to read this week? Let’s make this a great week!

I’ve decided to join the Bout of Books readathon from January 1st to 7th. I decided that Bout of Books would be a great way to jump start my reading for 2024.

For those of you who don’t know what Bout of Books is, here’s the official blurb from the Bout of Books blog:

The Bout of Books readathon is organized by Amanda Shofner and Kelly Rubidoux Apple. It’s a weeklong readathon that begins 12:01am Monday, January 1st and runs through Sunday, January 7th in YOUR time zone. Bout of Books is low-pressure. There are reading sprints, Twitter chats, and exclusive Instagram challenges, but they’re all completely optional. For all Bout of Books 39 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog.

My TBR for Bout of Books is up in the air. It all depends on what I finish reading between now and then. Here’s a tentative list for now:

Are you going to join in the fun?

Bout of Books 36 is here! With everything that’s happened in the last couple of months, my reading has slowed way down. I’m really excited to get my reading on this week and hit 2023 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.

I’ll also be joining in on the Instagram challenge this week. Click here if you’d like to follow me on Instagram .

I’m hoping that I’ll be able to read my Unofficial Trim Challenge book, MISTBORN by Brandon Sanderson, and start my IRL book club book, MY GRANDMOTHER ASKED ME TO TELL YOU SHE’S SORRY by Frederik Backman. I may read some of my January PBT book as well, TASTE: MY LIFE THROUGH FOOD by Stanley Tucci.
