Bout of Books Day 6



Goals:
I need to read four books this week to catch up with my reading goal for the year so that's what I'm aiming for! I know some people who are aiming for way more than me but I don't want to go completely crazy this week...

Saturday
Number of books I've read today: 1
Total number of books I've read: 3
Books read today: Black Hole Sun  by David Macinnis Gill, The Last Olympian by Rick Riordan

Saturday was a very busy day. Life pulled me out of the house and into the evil world of errands, far too often. Luckily, I took my kindle in my purse and pulled that baby out for a quick couple pages every time I had to sit in the car or wait in line. I wish I could have made more progress on The Last Olympian today but I only read the first chapter. As I've said, I really enjoyed the Percy Jackson and The Olympian Series so I am expecting amazing things from this final battle. Some tears will be shed, Percy I will miss you. To be honest I'm considering putting this book aside for the last day of the read-a-thon. I'm just not sure if I want to rush through the end of this series.

The lazy bug almost overpower me again today, but I took out my celestial bronze sword and fought through it! (I'm becoming a total Percy Jackson fan girl) 
Anyway...
I managed to finish one book today! I am really really enjoying the Percy Jackson and the Olympian Series. I feel like the character development and language of this books is so organic. I can really feel Percy and his friends growing up as I read on. It's such a fantastic series and I'm sad to see it end so soon. 

Two more days left in this read-a-thon guys! Happy Reading! :)

I didn't finish any books today. To be honest, I hardly even read! *pouts*

The worst part is that I expected to read the most today because I had the entire day responsibility free. Unfortunately, exhaustion finally caught up with me...I spent all of Thursday asleep! I have no excuses. I just spent the entire day passed out and doing absolutely nothing.

I took my last final today!! FREEDOM HAS ARRIVED!! *does highly embarrassing happy dance*

Okay, enough of the dancing...

Today was so amazing! I finished two books! I read books 2 and 3 of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians  series. They were so good, I absolutely loved them! This series has been perfect for Bout of Books because it's fast paced and tons of fun. Now that I'm done with university classes I should have plenty of time to read. 

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Reading! :)
