『BOUT OF BOOKS 17』 Goals & Updates
Sign up post!
Goals
READ-A-THON-TBR
Since I'm not sure what to pick I have a huge list, so I can pick a book after the mood I'm in. Most of the time I just pick what I feel like reading. So I just listed a few books and mangas I want to read in the near future. I couldn't add a specific volume for the mangas, because it could happen that I continue reading them until the read-a-thon, I'll just update the volumes when Bout of Book's starting.
Goals
- Read as much as I can. ✓
- Try to finish two books. ✓
- Read every day at least a bit or listen to an audiobook. ✓
- Read at least one book by Neil Gaiman ✓
- Interact with other boutofbooklers. ✓
- Participate in all the challenges. ✓
- Daily Updates. ✓

Time has come and Bout of Books 17 is almost here. I'll plan to participate and try my best again. I need to get some serious reading done. I'm around 7 books behind on my goodreads reading challenge for this year and I plan to catch up. As always it's going to be hard, because I have to work and on the exact weekend I'll be out of town for my sisters bachelorette party. Hope I'll manage to read at all. Wasn't that good of a reading year for me so far. ^^"

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, August 22nd and runs through Sunday, August 28th in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure.

『READ-A-THONs』 A week of READ-A-THONs ~ Eine Woche voller Lesemarathons
There are four read-a-thons this week and I thought I try and combine all of them. To be honest I'm not sure how to manage this, because uni started again and I'm working in between as well. But I thought I try it out and get some reading done right at the beginning of the year.

Goals archived:
- reading throughout the week ✓
- finishing the "Shatter Me" trilogy + the novellas
- finishing the "The Selection" triolgy ✓
- finally finishing "Fyre" (the thing is I just don't want this series to end XD") ✓
- maybe one book from my tbr box
My thoughts:
While I only archived three out of five goals and had to do an adjustment in between I'm super happy I was able to finally finish Fyre by Angie Sage and that I continued on with the Shatter Me trilogy by Tahereh Mafi. Had to do one adjustment to my Bout of Books tbr, because I suddenly received my copy of The One by Kiera Cass and I had to read it as soon as I got it. So with that I completed two series and nearly finished with the Shatter Me one too. I completed three full books and the rest of Fyre, which means I read a lot more in one week as I normally do. I think I could have come farer if I hadn't to study for my last exam (and hadn't birthday in between XD), but since school is the most important at the moment it's totally okay that I "only" read this much. All in all I had a lot of fun and I would love to do it again. ^^

Thought about participating in this one. I still have to do my goals list and I think it's going to be a little hard, but I just won't put too much on there. Still have to prepare for viral history exam. Which is kind of annoying. But still, school's counting the most the last few weeks. ;__; I'll be so glad when everything will be over. Soon~
One week of reading, with my birthday in between should be fun and kind of relaxing. haha That sounds like it'll be no stress concentrating on the reading. XP
Btw, my April wrap up should be following soon and I'm writing on heidi. in Cologne. So be prepared for another super long post. ^o^
