It’s time to start Bout of Books 7.0… I’m a little nervous, but we’ll see how this week goes. My goals are going to be pretty loose as this is my first time participating. If you want to find out more, or take part yourself don’t forget to have a look at the Bout of Books Blog.

Time Devoted To Reading
I will be reading all week around real life stuff like cooking, cleaning, and walking the dog. At least that’s the goal. Hopefully I’ll feel well enough, but we shall see.
My Goals
Hmm… I’m going to go with the low target of reading and writing the review of 4 books, which works at just over a day a book but hopefully I will smash it. I’d also like to take part in at least one Twitter chat.
Books To Read
I don’t have any right now. I may add some later.

Ooh, this is so awesome! I’ve only done one readathon in all my years blogging, and that was a weekend! This is just crazy! I am seriously considering joining in on the fun! 🙂

Well it’s my first time, and I think it sounds fun – so you should definitely give it a go. I liked the fact I could set my own goals, which admittedly aren’t very ambitious but they’re not daunting either.

I look forward to seeing what you read. Although 4 books is a low target for you in a week, it’s a high target for me! 🙂 Hope you enjoy your reads and hope to chat with you soon on Twitter. Here are my Bout of Books Read-a-thon Goals if you’d like to stop by.

I’m really nervous about Bout of Books too (and for good reason – I didn’t read nearly as much as I wanted to read today). But it really looks like you’re making excellent progress! Good luck and have fun! 😀
