The Bout of Books read-a-thon is organized
by Amanda Shofner and Kelly Rubidoux Apple.
It is a week long read-a-thon that begins 12:01am Monday, January 6th
and runs through Sunday, January 12th in whatever time zone you are in.
Bout of Books is low-pressure. There are challenges, Twitter chats, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional.

DAY 1 RECAP
NB: This is my 14th participation in #boutofbooks
Here is what I read (actually listened to) on DAY 1:
- Theological Territories, by David Bentley Hart = 16 pages
- Sanshiro, by Natsume Soseki = 4 pages
- Eagle Strike, by Anthony Horowitz = 30 pages
- Audiobook: The Book of Tea, by Kakuzo Hokakura: 1H40 minutes = 35 pages
FINISHED
Total for Day 1: 85 pages
TOTAL so far: 85/575
I also did 2 challenges:
– on Twitter, Introduce yourself #insixwords
– on Instagram, currently reading
And I managed to write a short review for The Book of Tea (will be live on 1/12).
So not too bad withe little time I had today.
So glad I had to cook something for Church and wrap gifts for our Nativity celebration this Tuesday – that gave me time to listen to audiobooks!
