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 12:01 am Monday, August 17th and runs through Sunday, August 23rd in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure. There are challenges, giveaways, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 14 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. – From the Bout of Books team
I stayed up way too late last night and got up earlyish to go out to breakfast with the Boyfriend and his Mom. I took a nap midafternoon, and even though I did get some reading done, I ended up having to spend my evening dealing with some Jerry Springer drama from my family over my graduation. Needless to say, I now have room for one more guest to attend my commencement ceremony and one less emotionally abusive person in my life. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is standing in as my personal therapist while everyone else is asleep.

What are your comfort reads? Let me know in the comments.
Ugh, I’m so sorry to hear about the family drama, but you definitely don’t need to stand for emotional abuse. Better to fill that spot at commencement with someone who really supports you!
