Bout of Books 25 Readathon

7 Comments

I am super excited for Bout of Books 25! This will be the 8th one I have  participated in, I enjoy all of the challenges and meeting new people.  It is such a big event for the book community and allows you to meet lots of other bloggers/readers and participate in really fun and creative challenges. I encourage you to join in this time around. It is a low key read-a-thon in which you set your own goals. If you decide to participate let me know I would love to see what you are going to read and the goals you set!  Go sign up on the Bout of Books blog!

For those that don’t know what Bout of Books is… here you go: The Bout of Books read-a-thon is organized by Amanda Shofner and Kelly Rubidoux Apple. It is a week long read-a-thon that begins 12:01am Monday, May 13th and runs through Sunday, May 19th in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure. There are challenges, Twitter chats, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 25 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. – From the Bout of Books team

I am participating in quite a few readathons so my books I plan to read for this will be overlapping with the Shelflove Crate Annual Readathon!

Are you participating in any readathons?
