Bout of Books 7.0 Wrap-up

With Bout of Books now over, I thought I'd do a wrap-up post to let you know how I did with my goals. For someone who hasn't read much this year due to being in a reading rut and lacking motivation, I had such a productive week, and most importantly, I had fun! This was my first Bout of Books, or read-a-thon for that matter, and I personally can't wait to do it all over again in August! 

The Bout of Books read-a-thon is organized by Amanda @ On a Book Bender 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, and the only reading competition is between you and your usual number of books read in a week. There are challenges, giveaways, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 7.0 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. 

Goals
- Read at least 5 books - I can happily say I read one more than my goal, making it 6 books in total! I haven't read so much as I have in the last week as I have all year so I'm over the moon! I think this is just what I need to get me motivated and back into reading!

- Participate in 2 challenges - I didn't participate in any challenges like I'd hoped but what can I say, I was too busy with my nose in a book.

- Participate in 1 Twitter chat - I participated in not 1 but 2 Twitter Chats as they were so much fun I couldn't resist. Next time, I'm trying for all 3!

- Chat with other participants & discover new blogs - I did chat and socialize with others during the Twitter Chats which was awesome but I didn't discover many news blogs unfortunately. There's always next time!
