Goals
I plan to read three books
I want to participate in at least one Twitter chat
Complete two challengers
Write two reviews
Comment on as many Bout of Books posts as possible and make some new friends!
Book List
- Every Day by David Levithan
- Diary of a Mall Girl by Luisa Plaja
- Vivan Versus the Apocalypse by Katie Coyle
- Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock by Matthew Quick
I’m taking this opportunity to read as many review books as I can! I’m really excited about Every Day so I expect that will be one I read first.
I’m not taking part as I’ve only just heard of this, but good luck! It sounds like a great thing to be a part of 🙂
You can still take part! Doesn’t start till Monday. But thanks! I’m hoping to read as much as possible 🙂
I love read-a-thons! I’m still debating whether to take part or not – school starts soon so I have a lot of getting ready. But as we discussed on Twitter, I have a lot of bloggy things to do 😉
Diary of a Mall Girl is such a fun read, I hope you enjoy it. I really want to read Every Day by David Levithan. Happy reading and good luck 🙂
You defintely should take part, even if just to do the challengers or chats. I’m never very good at meeting my goals- but its the taking part that counts! Thanks for your comment Zoe 😀
I am DEF taking part in the Bout!! Its my first Bout, and if you saw my Goals & Motivations, you’d see why I’m all jazzed up about this particular Bout! 🙂 🙂 I am enjoying getting to know other readers in the blogosphere, and just being able to have the free time to get to the books I’m most itching to read is a lovely thing! I love how its all set up, too! I won’t be tweating, but I’ll drop by your blog and leave you encouraging notes! I hope you have a rockin’ time!! Its nearly here! Eek!
Thanks for your comment! Its nice to meet another first-timer. You have lots of goals, good luck with them all!
