Bout of Books 6.0: Finish Line

The Goals:

Read 300 pages each day.
Finish 5 books
~~Participate in at least 3 challenges~~
~~Participate in one Twitter chat~~ -
Visit bloggers also participating and leave lots of comment love - every day!
Beat my last readathon accomplishments: 4 books, 1251 pages

I didn't read 300 pages a day or finish 5 books. I didn't visit as many bloggers as I wanted either. But I did have a good turn out. I read some really long books! I ended up reading 4 books for a total of 1456 pages. That's over 200 pages more than last readathon. You can read my update post: here.

The Books:

Roseannearchy: Dispatches from the Nut Farm

Beautiful Creatures (Caster Chronicles, #1)

These are the books I read and finished. They were all good books in their own way.

I am pretty happy with the end results of this readathon. Even though I didn't get all my goals, I did better than last readathon. Hopefully next BOB I can do even better.

For all those interested, there is a readathon going on 7Feb - I put the button up on my left sidebar.
