I listened to a little bit of The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas while running errands, and then I dived into The Stepsister Scheme by Jim C. Hines hoping I might get close to finishing it. I got a little past 80%, so my plan is to finish it today, and then start A Knot in the Grain by Robin McKinley.

I read a little bit of The Stepsister Scheme by Jim C. Hines when I had a few moments throughout the day. I will hopefully have more time to read today, but I will definitely get some audiobook time in while I’m running errands.

• Read.  Read.  Read.
• Finish my library books.
• Start a new book from my TBR.

Books to Read

• The Stepsister Scheme by Jim C. Hines
• The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas
• A Knot in the Grain by Robin McKinley
• At least one book from my “TBR” bookshelf on Goodreads.

Updates

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.

I finished Ink and Bone by Rachel Caine right before I went to bed. That means that I met my goal for Bout of Books! I finished both of the books I had been reading before New Year’s, and I finished a book from my TBR. I’m looking forward to Bout of Books 31 in May!

I’m well over halfway through Ink and Bone by Rachel Caine. I also started and got caught up on The Year of Cozy by Adrianna Adarme. It goes month by month and my plan is to read each month as it comes. So, I won’t be reading any more of it during this last day of Bout of Books, but I am going to try to finish Ink and Bone.

I finished The Girl in the Tower by Katherine Arden and read a bit more of Ink and Bone by Rachel Caine. Overall, though, I didn’t read much yesterday. Today is going to be a reading day, and I might start another book, but I’m not sure which one yet.

I missed posting yesterday thanks to the internet being out. I also didn’t finish The Girl in the Tower by Katherine Arden as I planned before picking up Ink and Bone by Rachel Caine again. I’m at 93%, though so it’s my goal to finish it before I go to bed tonight.

I didn’t The Girl in the Tower by Katherine Arden before starting Ink and Bone by Rachel Caine, but I did get to over 75%. I’m hoping to finish The Girl in the Tower today, before continuing with Ink and Bone. We’ll see; both books are exceptional so far.

I finished Around the World with Auntie Mame by Patrick Dennis, and then read quite a bit of The Gir in the Tower by Katherine Arden. I wanted to read more, but I forced myself to be an adult and go to bed at a reasonable time. I will hopefully have nearly as much time to read today as I did yesterday.
