For the first time, I am taking part in a read-a-thon! I’m doing this in a no-pressure kind of way, as a way to ease into this kind of thing and see if it’s something I’d like to get more involved in. This read-a-thon is called “Bout of Books” and here’s some info from their blog:

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, August 17th and runs through Sunday, August 23th 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 14 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. – From the Bout of Books team

Alright, we’ll see how this goes. I’m off to read!
