Read-a-thon Begins!
I’m participating in the…
Bout of Books Read-a-Thon. It started at 12:01 am today and ends at 11:59 pm on Sunday, May 20.
Boy, can I ever use a readathon. May has been really crazy with tons of great new books.

On NetGalley and Edelweiss for May I have:

Dark Frost by Jennifer Estep
From the library I have:
Love, Maybe by Heather Hepler

The Story of Us by Deb Caletti
To skim because book two is coming out and my memory isn’t what it used to be:
Hourglass by Myra McEntire
Starcrossed by Josephine Angelini
Bloodlines by Richelle Mead
So I’m just going to read as many of these as I can. That’s my goal.
I’ll update my Readathon progress on every post this week. And on Twitter.
Good luck chick!! Hope you get tons of reading done. I will be cheering you on!!
Well, we will see….
Thanks for the encouragement 🙂
I have been trying to read more and spend a little less time on twitter. So far it's working somewhat. Lol!!
Wow, that's quite a goal you have set for yourself! I'm anxious to read In Honor, I have not seen one bad review of that book, everyone is raving about it! I may need to have one of these readathon's myself, my tbr list (and especially my NetGalley titles) are stacking up! Good luck and have fun reading!
Oh, there's no way I'm reading all those books. Maybe four? Five?
That's a lot of books! U should read Insurgent first!
I have already started it so yes, I am reading it first.
If I were strategic, I'd read short books LOL
Many books I see … but what to do i guess it is not easy to choose between books 🙂
I try to read review books first and chronologically. But that doesn't always happen because other books beckon me…
Good Luck Jen! Can I still particpate in this read a thon? 🙂 Congrats!
Yes — I'll email you details but basically just make a goal post and then go to Bout of Books and link your post in the link.
Join us — it will be fun!
Love the pile! I finished Pretty Amy last week, and In Honor, Second Chance Summer, When You Were Mine and Of Poseidon are on my To Read list…I still need to read Starcrossed…
I'm so excited about all those too!!
Wow good luck. I am so jealous of that stack of books lol.
It is good and I'm not complaining, but I am beginning to see how book bloggers burn out…
Last night I dreamed I was attacked by a swarm of bees and I think that was from staring at that stack of books right before I fell asleep.
Yea I am amazed at how much book bloggers can do. It seems that time goes too fast for me to do anything.
That is quite a stack of books! Good luck and have fun!
Good luck! That is a lot of reading, but you can do it! 🙂
Thanks for the encouragement!!
I'm super excited for the readathon. But I got off to a bad start today. Scrapbooked and shopped all afternoon (slept in, so there went my morning) and have to paint some party favors tonight. 🙂
LOL I am just starting now!! Don't feel bad!
Take a deep breath & dive right in.
wow maybe I should participate in one this summer. we'll see 🙂 Good luck to u!
