The Bout of Books read-a-thon starts today, and I've finally got all of my goals sorted! I was having a hard time deciding what books I was going to read and how many I was going to challenge myself to finish.
So, without further ado, here are the books that I'm hoping I'll be able to get through:
Books
I'm hopefully going to be able to get through 5 of these books. I'll be going out on Wednesday to see City of Bones & Percy Jackson, and I'll be busy at the weekend so I'll probably only get to 5 but I'm hoping I'll be able to read all 6! :)

On second thought, please send Ice Cream, and don't worry if you don't hear from us for awhile!

Overall
Total number of books read: 10 (9 books, 1 novella)
Total number of pages read: 3441 pages
Books: Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardgo; Hallowed by Cynthia Hand; My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick, Cinder by Marissa Meyer; Pivot Point by Kasie West; My Soul to Steal by Rachel Vincent; The Assassin and the Pirate Lord by Sarah J Maas; Reached by Ally Condie; The Awakening by Kelley Armstrong & The Silver Linings Playbook by Matthew Quick.
Well, somehow I managed to read 10 books this week (which I actually can't believe!). I've managed to beat my own record of number of books read in a week and I had a lot of fun doing it! I participated in my first twitter chat for Bout of Books, and I had so much fun! I met some new people and found some new blogs to follow. I only managed to take part in one challenge, mostly because I kept forgetting about them, but next time I'll be making sure that I check out the challenges every day. I've really enjoyed taking part in this read-a-thon and I'm really looking forward to the next one now!
