#Bout of Books 17 Wrap Up

August 22nd (12:00 am) - August 28th (11:59 pm)



Well, this didn't go so well. I thought that I would have more time to read but so much happened this whole week. My days off turned into more work and family was in town again so I didn't have any time to really get any of my reading I had planned down. I didn't feel good either. I only ended up reading really one book and not even a fourth of the other one. I even wrote a full review of November 9 here. I'm still trying to get through Crown of Midnight which makes me upset because I want to be caught up before Empire of Storms comes out next week but I'm not sure that will happen. That's what I'm going to do going forward. I will be trying to read all the Throne of Glass books.

#Cramathon 2015 (December 19th-December 22nd) Cramathon was hosted by Whittynovels on Youtube. It was created to read as many books as possible to finish your Goodreads challenge for the year. I wasn't originally going to participate being I would be very busy the first day that the Cramathon took place. I also didn't really need the help with my reading challenge. I only had three books left to read to meet my goal for the year, but I decided I wasn't going to give up an opportunity to get some of the books on my TBR (To Be Read) read.  Challenges: Read an audiobook or ebook Read a bind up Finish a series/read the last book of a series Read a book under 200 pages Finish a book you DNF’ed Read a graphic novel series (or as many graphic novels as you can) Read 5 books total Day 1:  I didn't read anything the first day. I was too busy. Day 2:  Read a book under 200 pages:  The Twits by Roald Dahl:  ★★★★ I love

Review: Heir of Fire  by Sarah J. Maas Format (That I Read It): Book Summary: Celaena has survived deadly contests and shattering heartbreak―but at an unspeakable cost. Now, she must travel to a new land to confront her darkest truth . . . a truth about her heritage that could change her life―and her future―forever. Meanwhile, brutal and monstrous forces are gathering on the horizon, intent on enslaving her world. Will Celaena find the strength to not only fight her inner demons but to take on the evil that is about to be unleashed? Initial Thoughts: It's #TOMETOPPLE time again and while this book was on my TBR I wasn't really planning on reading it. I thought for sure that I would either The Name of the Wind by Patrick Ness or American Gods by Neil Gaiman. I thought and felt the need to read a Sarah J. Maas. I haven't read one since last November/December. Review: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ~Spoilers  Below~ I quite enjoyed myself while reading Heir of Fire.
