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.

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!

I’m thinking about picking up The Girl With All The Gifts soon too. I got it for my birthday three weeks or so ago and it’s starting to call out to me now. Can’t wait to see what you think of it!
Give it some time, The girl with all the gifts really picks up and it will have you hooked 😀 Happy reading!
