Bout of Books 16 - Day 2!

Happy Tuesday, Bibliobabes! 

B.O.B Day 2 Is Upon Us!

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, January 4th and runs through Sunday, January 10th 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. For all Bout of Books 15 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team

Bout Of Books is an incredible read-a-thon. I've participated several times and it just keeps getting better. The people are awesome, the atmosphere is really positive, and it's just a good time all around. There are challenges every day, awesome giveaways, and twitter chats that will have you rolling in the floor with laughter. Even if your goal is to try to read a few pages during your crazy week, everyone will be cheering you on!

Some Chat Highlights

Yesterday's chat was epically epic. As usual. B.O.B chats always are! Did you miss it? Don't worry! There's still time to sign up today (last day to do it!) and the next chat is on Saturday!

When you realize you were too optimistic about being able to enjoy your Hot Chocolate during the pandemonium.

I forget that there's very little time to actually DRINK my beverage during these chats. I just occasionally glance at it. #boutofbooks

How would I describe B.O.B to someone who's never participated? Well... I'm glad you asked! 

A7 - Ever been sloppily kissed by a favorite author while flying across the universe in a Tardis? B.O.B is kind of like that. #boutofbooks

Daily Challenge

Today's challenge is a "shelfie".

I have books everywhere but this is my center station. ✨Themed shelving woo! #shelfie4boutofbooks #boutofbooks pic.twitter.com/QpFhzwqVMi

Goals

4 Books (Only from my current shelf)

The goal this B.O.B is to not only read 4 books in 1 week, but to read ONLY books that I currently own and that have been sitting on my shelf waiting for me to notice them. 

Here is a short list of books I might be looking to read during B.O.B 16 (If I don't get to some of them beforehand).
