The Bout of Books read-a-thon is organized by Amanda Shofner and Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal. It is a week long read-a-thon that begins 12:01am Monday, January 2nd and runs through Sunday, January 8th 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 18 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. – From the Bout of Books team

I will be posting an update each day with the amount of time I read, the number of pages read that day and the titles of any of the books I’ve finished.
Wow, did you take all those books on vacation with you? Hope it’s all ebooks! and have an awesome birthday. Don’t forget to put the books down and have some fun with friends and family too! #boutofbooks
My vacation is a Readcation. I’m staying at home, but yes, most of them are ebooks.
I’m excited about Bout of Books 18. Best of luck to us both on meeting our reading goals. Let me know if I can help you with anything along the way.
Happy page turning and happy New Year!
Oh, and if you come across a 2017 debut author, please let me know! – J
