Bout of Books Goals

Bout of Books 7.0

What is it? Direct from the hosts:

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, May 13th and runs through Sunday, May 19th 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 7.0 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team

So...  goals. I plan to finish my mystery book, and read some of the following:  Shatter Me, Days of Blood and Starlight, Unravel Me, Eleanor and Park, Unearthly, Sing Me Home, Meant to  Be, and Elsewhere.

As far as how many, I  have to keep it small at 3-4  books. ;)  I will update this post daily with my progress below and I'll do a mid- and end-week recap post.  [and fix this formatting tomorrow.  ugh.]

Happy Monday and happier reading.

Thoughts: At this rate I may not reach my goal. But I'm still reading more than I did the last couple of weeks, so there's that. :)  But, I did start an audio book, which I haven't done in ages. I started listening to it at work. So we'll see if that helps with completing more books. :)
