Bout of Books Update | Day 2

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 12th and runs through Sunday, May 18th 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 10 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team

Day 2

Currently reading: 
- Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

Books completed: 
The Archived by Victoria Schwab
- The Diviners by Libba Bray
- The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

Pages read since last update: 488

Total pages read: 1079

Thoughts: Today was another good day. I got through two complete books and I've started on another one. If I keep going at this rate I should complete all of my goals! Especially since I completed the longest book on my goals list. I'm really happy I stuck with The Diviners because I was honestly debating about just putting it down after yesterday. However, I actually really enjoyed it. I didn't love it but I did end up at least liking it. I will be posting a review on it tomorrow so keep an eye out for that! Tomorrow I'm going to try to get my page count up even higher so wish me luck!


How's your reading going? Have you read these books? Let me know!

    1. Thanks! :) Yeah. I'm a babysitter so I generally have the morning and then most of the night to read which has been really nice. Good luck on your goals!
