May Wrap-up/June TBR

So I normally have a video to go with this but for some reason my computer keeps overheating every time I go to render it. So that will be up as soon as I can get this figured out.

Bout of Books 7.0 Read-A-Thon Wrap-up

Check out my original post HERE.

So my goal was to start and finish four books during this. My “sub goal” was to make it books that I had gotten for review. Overall though I wanted to just get ahead of myself for reviews. I also didn’t pay attention to page numbers because that wasn’t really important to me. I just wanted to read.

So I finished 5 books..

Lies, Knives, and Girls in Red Dresses by Ron Koertge *to be reviewed*

Storm by Evan Angler *review HERE*

Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World by Bryan Lee O’Malley *Review will be up tomorrow!*

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (graphic novel) by Eric Shanower *to be reviewed*

Zits: Chillax by Jerry Scott *review will be up Thursday*

Then I started two more books.

The Marvelous Wizard of Oz (graphic novel) by Eric Shanower (just finished this one) *to be reviewed*

The S-Word by Chelsea Pitcher

So I really sucked at reading the last few days of the week (as in really didn’t read at all) but I did beat my main goal! I am pretty disappointed because I know I could have definitely finished the two books I started but oh well. This was fun and I can’t wait to do another one! I might have something planned for July…. Hint hint

Did you participate?! How did you do?!

For all Bout of Books 7.0 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team.


I am going to participate in a read-a-thon! This will be my first one and I'm so excited to kick some TBR butt. More specifically some review copy butt. I am hoping to read four books during that week and I will post reviews for all of them. That is a lot for me but I know I can do it if I put myself to it!  Let me know if you are planning to participate!
