Bout of Books 10

Hi guys! I'm going to take part in the Bout of Books read-a-thon in May. This is my first read-a-thon, and I'm really looking forward to it. As of today, I *should* be almost-completely free that week, so it's perfect timing to get a lot of reading done!

The Bout of Books read-a-thon is organized by Amanda @ On a Book Bender and Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal. It is a week long read-a-thon that begins 12:01am Monday, May 12th and runs through Sunday, May 18th in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure, and the only reading competition is between you and your usual number of books read in a week. There are challenges, giveaways, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 10 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team

I usually average 2 - 2.5 books a week. Realistically, I'd like to read at least 3 books, but my goal would be 4 books. I might revise this closer to the time, maybe add a couple of novella's to the list as well. Closer to the start date I'll have a better idea of which books I'm going to choose to read.

If you've already signed up, let me know and maybe we can do the support and motivation thing to help each other get through the week. As I'm a complete newbie to read-a-thons I have no idea what to expect, so any advice is appreciated! Happy reading =)
