Bout of Books 12

Bout of Books

Participant #346 (I hope I got that right) #348 reporting in for Bout of Books read-a-thon. I'm sooo excited! My first ever Bout of Books! Yearghhh!!

And hello, people. I'm alive. Well and alive. I'll get back to this in the next post, if there is a next post. I'm getting very good in procrastinating nowadays. Muehehehe.

Hoookay...

This will start tomorrow, for me. In about 17 hours. I live in GMT +8 but I believe BoB starts in whatever timezone you are in as long as it's January 5th. Visit Bout of Books for more information, and come join in the fun.

My Goals:
NIL. Because I'm not an ambitious human being, I'll just go with the flow haha. And have fun along the way.

Updates:
I'll be updating this post everyday so just check me back if you're interested. If you're not, just pretend that you are and come back to check my reading progress.

Edited: Not a single word read. Well..

February 2014 Wrap Up

February Reads

Friday Reads #1

I believe this feature started on Twitter, with people hashtagging FridayReads (#FridayReads) to participate. I've seen it around booktube community too. It's just a way of sharing on what you read on Friday and on the weekend, I guess.

I'm not really sure but hey I think it sounds great and I feel like doing it. Also, because I don't know what else to post other than reviews, so this is just to make sure I've at least one blog post up in a week. I'll just go with what I read on Friday, because I'm a slow reader, - evidence, not in anyway tampered - I'll probably be reading the same book over the weekend too.

Juliette seems to be getting on my nerves a lot. Not sure if I'll like the book. Currently on page 48, and I've already written about 2 pages in my notebook on why I hate dislike her.

Love for Books Readathon

I'm in! This is my first read-a-thon ever. I'm sooo excited! This read-a-thon is hosted by Novel Heartbeat and Confession of a Bookie Monster. Head on over to either of their blog for more details and how to join etc.

How: set your own goal and read, that's all. 

When: Monday, February 17th, 12:01 am - Sunday, February 23rd, 11:56 pm (my timezone). I've asked Jessi from Novel Heartbeat, and she said just go along with your timezone to eliminate confusion :). In my case, this will start approx. in 6 hours and 20 minutes. I'll be updating this post for my goal and progress. So, just come back here to this post, if you'd like to check on my progress. I'll be listing my goals in 1 or 2 days before the read-a-thon starts.
