Bout of Books Read-a-thon Sign-Ups
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, January 4th and runs through Sunday, January 10th in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure.

Some reading, some sleeping, some general piddling around... Then went outside into the real world for some fresh air while hitting a few used books stores and spending some money...
Did some more reading.
An overall good day.
