Bout of Books 8.0 Day 5 Update & Mad Libs Challenge

BoB8.0-200x200

As Day 5 of the Bout of Books read-a-thon comes to an end, I’m just finishing up my 4th book – Omens by Kelley Armstrong and getting ready to start Bone Season by Samantha Shannon. Omens was a 14 hour audio so that is quite a bit of time devoted to reading over the past couple days! I’m pretty sure I’ll be able to meet my goal of 5 books by the end of Day 7. I’ve also managed to participate in most of the challenges although I have not been able to do the Twitter chats.
