My goals: 7 hours + / 600 pages+ / 2 books / updates

Progress

Wednesday

Today was my first day of taking part in the readathon as Matt was here until this morning.  I’ve not made too much progress yet (6:30pm), just reading a little on my lunch break.  My plans for this evening are basically cooking, watching Great British Break Off and Operation Wild with my family, and then reading a bit before bed!  I started The Girl with all the gifts on my lunch break and I’m hoping to read at least a bit more tonight!

Thursday

I didn’t get a chance to read on my lunch break today as I had various boring errands to run, but I did get a little done when I got home from work.  I’m quite enjoying The Girl With All the Gifts so far but I wouldn’t say I’m hooked.  I’m feeling pretty shattered though, so I’m thinking of taking a hot chocolate up to bed, reading some more of The Girl With All the Gifts and then an early night! (I lead an exciting life like that!)  I probably won’t end up updating again tonight so instead I’ll leave you with my progress so far today.

Friday

I lost most of my lunch break to a bank trip today and was then at the cinema, so I didn’t start reading until gone midnight, so the bulk of my reading has gone under Saturday.

Saturday

5pm: It’s safe to say Bout of Books hasn’t gone as well as I’d hoped so far but I FINALLY finished a book! I’m not sure how much reading I’ll get done tonight as there’ll be lots of Doctor Who in my house, so I may be back or I may not!

Sunday

5:30pm: I’m hoping to get The Maze Runner finished tonight before bed but I’m also spending some time this evening blog scheduling and planning so it depends how engrossed in that I get! I’ve hit my page count and reading time goals either way, but I might not get my book count goal finished depending on progress later.  But I have at least started a book off my shelves and I’ll be finishing it in the next few days so I’m pleased with that 🙂

12:03AM: I finished The Maze Runner, so I’m counting it!
