Bout of Books Read-a-thon

Starting 2015 off with a bang, aka, a read-a-thon. I have been terrible at these in the past, but I’m going to try my hand at Bout of Books and see just how successful I can be with a week long 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, 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 […]

Dewey’s 24 Hour Read-a-t..

At the urging of Gail at Ticket to Anywhere, I bit the bullet and signed up for Dewey’s 24 Hour Read-a-thon. I was supposed to do this in October last year but things came up beyond my control and I had to pull out which made me sad. But this year it is on. I will possibly be taking a break to go to a movie (it’s a movie based on a book so I consider this to fit in completely) but I will be a reading fool other than that. The people in my house have been warned. Snacks […]

Read-A-Thon Change of Plans &#..

I am not going to be able to participate in my very first 24 hour read-a-thon that is being hosted at Dewey’s Read-a-Thon like originally thought. I signed up and then realized I would not be able to accomplish the task. Thanks for the well wishes offered, but I’m now going to cheer everyone on that will indeed be doing it. I’ll be reading some, but not the marathon of reading I hoped. Good luck to every one! You can do it. Look for me in April’s challenge…hopefully. 😉

Hound Dogs – Bad Boys of..

Oh those darn bad boys of books, how I love thee! I don’t know what it is but there is something attractive about that boy that seems bad but underneath has a heart of gold that would do ANYTHING for his lady love. I swoon every time I tell ya, SWOON! Enough of that. Let’s get to the hotties bad boys. 1) Four – Divergent, Veronica Roth: Is there a better bad boy with a heart of gold especially when it comes to Tris? He puts on a good front around the other initiates, but we all know the truth, […]

Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin..

Well it has been a whirl wind of a week so far. Between working 2 and a half days, packing, procrastinating from packing, and general life I have been all over the place. But the one thing I have not done is let me reading suffer. Now for clarification if you are reading this right now I am in a plane over this wonderful country of ours, but I did write this post on Wednedsay so it isn’t 100% correct in terms of where I am reading wise and what I have read. For all I know I could have […]
