This week is Bout of Books 13. Bout of Books is a week long, low pressure readathon. Here is the official blurb about the readathon:

Oh I love The Invention of Hugo Cabret! Such a gorgeous book,and have you seen the movie? Stunning! Glad you're having a good week so far!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know there was a movie. I will have to watch it! Hope you are having fun reading for Bout of Books. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI know what you mean about not being able to read on a particular day. I read only 47 pages yesterday (against a typical 100+ pages per day) because I was just too busy to sit down with a book. You sure read up a storm on day 2 and day 3 though! Have fun with Bout of Books.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you've had a great read-a-thon so far, even if you couldn't start right away. Enjoy the rest of your week!
