Dog Days of Summer (#ddsummer) Wrap-Up!


Overall, it was a quite successful readathon, as I got two books completed during the course of the two days.  While they weren't big books, I did get them completed and that makes me happy more than anything, especially since the later of the two was a book that didn't really like reading (funny enough, I was looking forward to the book, but once I was able to start reading, my opinion of the book changed; reviews of the two books will forthcoming this week, at least that is the plan).    I was also able to work on a few other books during the past couple of days and I am hoping that I can get a few more completed during the Bout of Books readathon.

#ddsummer and #boutofbooks goals




Bout of Books

Since these two readathons piggy back on each other, I felt it best to put both of them up at this time, instead of doing two different posts.  I will hopefully daily update Bout of Books before I head off to bed.

Here are the books that I plan on working and finishing this coming week:

Finishing:
A Game of Thrones
Call the Midwife
• The Dinner

Working:
  • Emma
  • War & Peace
  • Moby Dick
  • Dearie
  • The Light Between Oceans
  • Wives & Daughters (this week's section from Unputdownables)
  • The Lady of the Rivers
