BOUT OF BOOKS: OVERALL RESULTS


From August 22nd to August 28th, read as many books on your TBR as you can! You can participate even if you're not a blogger! Post your progress on your blog, on Twitter, on Facebook, on GoodReads, etc. There will also be fun CHALLENGES and GIVEAWAYS!!


How many books did you read over the course of the week? Did you achieve your goals? I sure didn't, lol!

THE BREAKDOWN:

Number of Books Read: NINE!
Total Number of Pages Read: 2,760!

Titles Read:

*SIRENZ by Charlotte Bennardo and Natalie Zaman
*THE KARMA CLUB by Jessica Brody
*SHUT OUT by Kody Koplinger
*BOUND BY GUILT by C.J. Darlington
*THE DUFF by Kody Koplinger
*Mystery Novel #1 (didn't enjoy/no title reveal)
*Mystery Novel #2 (didn't enjoy/no title reveal)
*JELLICOE ROAD by Melina Marchetta
*LOOK AGAIN by Lisa Scottoline


Yeah...........most of these titles weren't on my initial list. I never could stick to a set schedule! Though I will say that JABBERWOCKY and HATTER by Daniel Coleman are next on the list. Thankfully, they're not overly long, so I'm not worried about finishing them in time. :) I'm also planning to read my ARC of HADES by Alexandra Adornetto this week since it officially comes out. After that...I don't know! I obviously can't stick to an outline, lol!!!!


How did you guys make out? Did you achieve your goals?

  1. What are the Mystery Novels? Are they just books you read, hated and don't want to offend the author? If so, I get it, but if you did not like them, and you won't be reviewing them why did you finish them? Just curious?

    Actually, you did a fantastic job with the challenge!! I wish I did as well. I was happy with my progress, though.

  3. @Gina: I didn't love them and won't be reviewing them. Usually, I won't mention when I read such a book, but since this was a challenge, I had to say SOMETHING... I guess...I was just waiting to see if they got better, since a lot of people love this author. Plus, I'm trying to read more contemporary fiction right now, so... *shrug*
