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, January 5th and runs through Sunday, January 11th 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 12 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. – From the Bout of Books team

I saw on Twitter you’re rocking the #boutofbooks! Great job. Hoping I can get The Poisonwood Bible done this week.
Thank you! Good luck with your book too 🙂
I hope your burn is better. It looks like you did well overall for Bout of Books even if you didn’t get a chance to read every day. Great job!
