Bout of Books 25: Day 1 Update

Bout of Books Read-a-thon Sign-Ups

The Bout of Books read-a-thon is organized by Amanda Shofner and Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal. It is a week long read-a-thon that begins 12:01am Monday, May 13th and runs through Sunday, May 19th 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.

I've been playing with different ways to track my Bout of Books progress for the past few years, and still haven't really come up with one I like.  This time around, I'm switching things up again, with hopes that I'll like this new tracking format.  If not... well, back to the drawing board...

Progress For the Day

# Pages Read:  184 pages
# Hours Spent Reading:  N/A (did not track)
# Books Read:  1 book

Technically, I really only finished reading the last half of Ever Strange by Alisa Woods (149 pages), but we'll count it as a win anyway.  Meanwhile, I started reading Seduction by Amanda Quick (28 pages), and I'm still continuing to listen to The Sittaford Mystery by Agatha Christie and narrated by Hugh Fraser (47 minutes).

Progress is great so far!

I may also get rid of the "# Hours Spent Reading" stat, since I'm not really tracking at all, if I want to be honest.
