How Much Time I Intend to Read

It is my last week of summer before Law school starts up again so I plan on enjoying it as much as I can. I should have a lot of time to read, but I will also need to pack up and drive 7 hours away to school. (I really wish I had an audio book for the ride) This means that on Thursday I will not have much time to read since I will have a full day of driving ahead of me. But the other days, I should have lots reading time.

Updates

I am going to have one update post a day. (at the end of the day) It will be in the following format each day, with a wrap post at the end of the read-a-thon. I will also be updating on twitter, so follow @BookBriefs for updates. I will use the hashtag #boutofbooks when I tweet.

Im really excited for this read-a-thon, and I can’t wait to talk to other bloggers or readers participating. Meeting new people is my favorite part of the read-a-thons, so please come say hi to me! 🙂

Let's Evaluate

Hope you get all your planned reading done! Sadly my school starts tomorrow so I probably won’t get more than 2 books done, but I’m still excited. [: Happy Reading.
