Bout of Books 7.0 Read-a-Thon Finished

Bout of Books Read-a-Thon hosted by Bout of Books.

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.

My goal for the week was to read 4 books and I completed this goal as I read 5½ book. I had a very mixed week as I had three days where I read less than 100 pages but I also had a couple of good days and especially Sunday was a very good reading day. I have enjoyed this Read-a-Thon.

The books I read:

1. Just Doll by Janice Daugharty
2. The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan, John Rocco
3. Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice
4. The Last Colony by John Scalzi
5. The Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan 
6. Frostbitten by Kelley Armstrong (finished 245 pages of 339 pages) 

My daily updates are HERE. 

I will try to take part in the next Read-a-Thon in August

I read about this Read-a-Thon  on The True Book Addict's Blog and as I like week long reading challenges I decided I had better take part.

I have a busy week ahead of me so I won't set my goal too high.

My goal will be to read four books this week. As usual for this kind of challenge my list of books is more than four so I have a choice.

My List:

1. Just Doll by Janice Daugharty (234 pages)
2. The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan, John Rocco (384 pages)
3. Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice (353 pages)
4. The Vampire Lestat by Anne Rice (493 pages)
5. A Rage in the Heavens by James A. Hillebrecht (287 pages)
6. The Arrival by Nicole MacDonald (353 pages)
7. The Rising by Kelley Armstrong (406 pages)
8. The Last Colony by John Scalzi (336 pages)
