Bout of Books 17 TBR

So whatdup, Internet? Back here to announce that I'm officially joining the 17th Bout of Books read-a-thon! I think I've been doing so for a few years since but I always fail to finish my TBR. (no shame) So what exactly is the Bout of Books?

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, August 22nd and runs through Sunday, August 28th in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure. There are challenges, giveaways, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 17 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team

Without further ado, here is my TBR pile.

1. It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover (major excitement!)

2. Winter by Marissa Meyer (mentally and emotionally prepared for this finale)

3. Red Dragon by Thomas Harris (the famous Hannibal series, I might continue the series if I like it)

4. Masquerade by Melissa de la Cruz (2nd book of the Blue Blood series)

5. Revelations by Melissa de la Cruz (3rd book ^)

6. and some current reads: (depends on how much I read this weekend)

    - The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald 

    - The Edge of Never by J.A. Redmerski

    - The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafón

It looks like I have a lot of reading to do!

Dewey's 24hrs Readathon [TBR]

Yes, I've decided to sign up for Dewey's 24hrs Readathon in midst of my finals. (IKR?) Well, this readathon takes place on the 23rd April 2016 and every participants from all over the world would be starting at the same time. Since I'm located in Cardiff, I would be following the British Summer Time which starts at 1PM till 1PM of 24th April 2016. It's not a lot of time but I have studies to do while participating in this readathon, I'll just have to see what's gonna happen. 

Anyways, my TBR would be a simple one. I plan to finish up the rest of the novellas in Tales From the Shadowhunter Academy by Cassandra Clare and many other co-authors. I'm currently at 'The Evil We Love' and would be starting my readathon from there.

TBR List

Starting point: 4% of The Evil We Love

Pale Kings and Princes

Bitter of Tongue

The Fiery Trial

Born to Endless Night

Angels Twice Descending

After I'm done (if I actually did finish) Tales From The Shadowhunter Academy, I can finally start Lady Midnight (The Dark Artifices series)! But so far, the above is my TBR for Dewey's 24hrs readathon.

Bout of Books 11 + TBR

Finally I'm participating in a read-a-thon and it's the Bout of Books 11. I'm pretty excited as this is my first time. So, the rules are pretty simple: just read as much as you can in a week's time (18/8-24/8) and post about your progress on any social networking site (Twitter, Tumblr, blog, Youtube or others) with hashtag #boutofbooks.
