I actually didn't accomplish much reading today, which is unfortunate! I had high hopes of reading the last 43 pages of a novel I started on January 1, 2015. But alas, I only read thirteen pages total for the day and it was this evening at 9:30pm... I am so tired from today's activities to continue forward with any reading at this time. Thank goodness there is always tomorrow to play catch up!!
I did do one of the challenges earlier today, which was fun! I completed the New Year’s Resolution Challenge. How did your first day of Bout of Books go today??

Oh I hope you get a chance to finish your book! I read a lot yesterday because I woke up at midnight, couldn't go back to sleep and ended up reading until almost 3am. Ha. t have finished two books and started another. :) I did the Bookshelf Scavenger Hunt yesterday, which was fun and participated in the Twitter chat. Loved that!
ReplyDeleteUgh, I don't like sleepless nights, but at least you made good use of your time!! Congrats on finishing two books that's great!! Glad to hear that you enjoyed the scavenger hunt challenge as well.
DeleteI too didn't get a lot of reading done yesterday. ughh.. but today I am on the go. I have a little bit more time today so that's been a biggie. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that I wasn't the only one who didn't read very much on day one of this read-a-thon!!
DeleteToday is better so far for me as I've finished reading the last 30 pages of The Seance by Joan Lowery Nixon and continued reading Mr. August. I'm hoping to do more reading this tonight before bed...
I was pushing so hard to finish my first book of the year by Sunday night, because I always like to start Bout of Books with a clean slate. So it sort of felt like my read-a-thon started a day early. (I did manage it, but the book was a complete disappointment. Luckily my first BoB book was much better.)
ReplyDeleteI'm like you most of the time in that I like to start with a fresh book on the 1st day of BOB... However, this round, I decided to carry on reading books I already started as I have 4 books in progress.... Well, now three books in progress as I finished one of them today. :-)
DeleteGood luck with your reading goals during the read of BOB 12.0!!
That stinks you weren't able to read that much the first day. I hope your second day went better for you. Here's how my Day One ended up. :)
ReplyDeleteSo far, day 2 of BOB is going along much smoother than yesterday, although I haven't read as much as I normally do on a great reading day... But at least, I completed reading my 1st book of the year!!
DeleteGood luck with your reading goals during the read of BOB 12.0!!
