Bout of Books

I've been in the market for a little readathon fun, but teaching all summer has its drawbacks & I often miss out... since this is our last week of summer school, things are pretty chill in the classroom as we wrap up, so I can devote the time to a readathon! I stumbled upon Bout of Books Read-a-Thon through Leeanna... I saw her Instagramed book list & felt inspired to join.  Thanks Leeanna!.. and go check her out folks!




Time Devoted to Reading:


I will be joining in this read-a-thon all week. My reading will happen mostly at night, but I hope to make up for lost daytime reading during the week over the weekend.

My Goals:

  • Finish Harry Potter (I'm about a quarter of the way through Half-Blood Prince)
  • Review books that I have recently finished (I have a stack I need to get to!)
  • Read from my gigantic TBR pile- NO BUYING BOOKS THIS WEEK

Books to Read:

  • Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
  • Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
  • The Girl Below by Bianca Zander
  • Ashes, Ashes by Jo Treggiari
  • Tortured (Birthmarked #1.5) by Caragh M. O'Brien
  • Prized (Birthmarked #2) by Caragh M. O'Brien

  1. You have a great book list. I keep saying one day I'll re-read the Harry Potter series but there are so many other books out there! It's my first time joining Bout of Books and I'm excited too! www.fromlefttowrite.com

  4. Yay, Jenna! I'm happy to see you joined in. HP 6 is probably my favorite of the series, so I've liked seeing you read it :D

    I've been on a readathon kick lately, but I think after Bout of Books I'll slow down for a while.

  5. So glad you found us! Bout-of-Books is perfect for a no-pressure all fun read-a-thon. Good luck and have fun! BTW - I'm kinda jealous. Wish I had time to visit Hogwarts again *sigh*
