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 8th and runs through Sunday, January 14th 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 21 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. – From the Bout of Books team

I didn’t get much reading done, but I did listen to a bit of Dharma Punx by Noah Levine on my way to and from the grocery store.  It wasn’t until the afternoon when I finally got some time to return to Blood Rites by Jim Butcher.

• Time Read:  1 hours 30 minutes
• Pages Read: 62
• Books Finished: The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss, The Little Book of Hygge by Meik Wiking
• Total Number of Books Read:2

Overall, this wasn’t my best Bout of Books, but I also didn’t have the luxury of being on vacation this time and my life hasn’t gotten significantly busier the past couple of weeks.  Still, I did manage to finish 2 books and get nearly half-way through 2 others.  I’m looking forward to the next Bout of Books in May!
