Bout of Books 7.0 Day 3 :)

Bout of Books
Could it really be the end of Day 3 already? This week is going by so quickly. Alas, I did not get as much reading done today as I would have liked between my dental appointment, working until 8:00 and now, at this point I am super tired so I do not think I will make it to midnight like I have the last two nights but we will see.


My Goals for the Week:
  • Finish 3 books and hoping for more
  • Write reviews for titles finished within 2 days
  • Visit at least 10 different bloggers each day




Today's Progress:



  • Started Georgetown Academy Book Four!! Loving it already--perfect for my lunch break only I did not want to put it down and go back to work. ;-)
  • Read 50ish pages of Star Cursed--it is so good but I was not in the right frame of mind to read it during my lunch break today at work. I hope to get it finished up by the end of the week. 

Reviews and Other Special Posts this Week:


 



Cumulative Progress:

Monday
Number of books I've read today: 1 full, 1/2 of another plus a full CD (about 4 chapters or so) of listening

    1. Thank you Erica! I am enjoying the books. I am in the mood for certain type of books and while I like Star Cursed thus far, I am not quite in the right mood to read it yet. But I will get it finished. :) If you like It-Girl novels, politics, romance or dram--they are FANTASTIC! The authors have done an amazing job with them. Enter the giveaway--who knows, maybe you will get lucky to win the GTA books! Thanks for stopping by and Happy Reading!

  3. Ooh! Star Cursed! I'm really excited about that one! I can see though that you'd have to be in the right frame of mind to read it. I LOVED the first book, but I can see how a mood would affect it! Good luck with the rest of the day today!

    1. It is so good but I have been reading more at night after work when I am tired or on lunch break so not the right moments. :) Hopefully this weekend or tomorrow evening possibly. It has been a hectic week for me. Happy Reading!
