I was literally just thinking to myself the other day that I need some sort of read-a-thon to get my reading groove back! Bout of Books popped into my brain and I was like YES!!! There's a read-a-thon happening this month and I'm so excited!! If you're unfamiliar with Bout of Books, here's what it's about:
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.

This read-a-thon comes at a perfect time because it starts literally two days after my cousin's very stressful wedding is over. I just looked at my 2014 Goodreads challenge and I'm 3 books behind in my goal of reading 100 books this year so I really need this. I plan on reading a least three books and three graphic novels. I think it's attainable.
Do you like read-a-thons? Are you planning on participating? Let me know in the comments!
