  1. Hallo, Hallo!!

    I am finally able to make my rounds to all the lovely Bout'er blogs I had discovered whilst we were signing up! :) :) Honestly, I have been having the same struggles! Each day I think I was all set to just "read!" something came along that derailed my plans! Having said that, as if you drop by to see my journal entries for each day, you'll see that I kept going with the Bout!! :) :) I'm going to be finishing up Haunted today, whilst starting the next 3 on my list, as I was soo into Haunted yesterday, that I didn't start Bluebird!! Laughs.

    Are you going to be posting your impressions of the books after the Bout!? I'd be keen to know how you felt about Bernedette and the others!?!

    Don't feel discouraged! Just pick up where you left off, and keep smiling!! :)

    1. Hello!! :)

      I feel that when I try to force myself to read then I get myself into a bit of a slump. So I'm really hoping I can just push through it and reach my goals. That is why I have three different books on the go right now, so that if I'm not in the mood for one then maybe I will be in the mood for the others.

      My sisters and I are hosting a read-a-thon the week of September 22 to September 29 so I signed up for this one thinking it would help me prepare for ours!

      And yes, I will definitely be doing reviews for these books after I finish them.

      Thank you for the lovely comment! And thank you so much for mentioning my blog on yours!
