bout of Books

I have decided to participate in this read a thon.  I like this read a thon because it is a no pressure one.  You are only limited by what you want to do and what you can do.

Here's what you have to do:

If you're posting on your blog, grab the official blurb (below) and our button (in the sidebar) and create a post. (Need an example? Check out Kelly's Bout of Books 12 post!)

The Bout of Books read-a-thon is organized by Amanda @ On a Book Bender and Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal. It is a week long read-a-thon that begins 12:01am Monday, January 5th and runs through Sunday, January 11th in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure. There are challenges, giveaways, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 12 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team

Books read

Happy New Year and what's ahead for the blog this year.

Happy New Year a couple of days late.  Seems like ever since I got this disease I have been running behind.

I have decided that this is the year that I am going to finish books that I have started.  I am also going to reread books that I thought I rushed through for reviewing.  I also will be reading books from my TBR mountain.  I might read some books for blog tours but not as many as I have in the past couple of years. I have a few books that I signed up for reviews and I have a lot of reviews that I am behind on so I hope to be able to post regularly for awhile.
