Bout of Books Read-a-Thon Master Post

Shamelessly stole most of this format from Amanda
Read-a-Thon Goals
  • Read a good chunk of the e-books I need for September E-books Month!
  • Read at least two books from the sites I review for 
Books to Knock Out
Everything below on this image:
Strike means finished!
Some I've already begun, others I need to finish and read...they're all e-books for next month
Other Books I’d Love to Get to
Bargains and Betrayals by Shannon Delany
the Bone Palace by Amanda Downum


How Much Time I Intend to Read
I work from 8am to 5pm Monday-Friday...so that's a significant chunk of reading time.  Cause I can't read at work.  But I hope to read for at least four hours each night...if not longer, after all we all know I don't sleep.

Updates

8/22
Number of books I’ve read today: 1 (Furiously Tempted 39pgs)
Total number of page I've read: 39
Total Time I've read today: 2 hrs 30 mins (8:30pm to 11:00pm)

Notes: I wasn't particularly fond of this book, but I'm going in order of page count for the e-books and that was the least amount so far.  It only took me 40 minutes anyhow.  The rest of the time I spent reading The Bone Palace which I haven't finished yet.

8/23
Number of books I’ve read today: 2 (Lady's Scandalous Nights 48pgs, Bargains and Betrayals 320pgs)
Total number of pages I’ve read: 407 + one billion pages at work
Total Time I've read today: 2 hrs 30 mins (12:05am to 2:25am), 6 hrs (6:30pm to 12:30am)

Notes: I loved the two books I read...and not so much the work.  I had to count the work pages though because they were the bulk of my reading experience.  Oh and my first aftershock!  At the time I was reading a couple pages in The Bone Palace (which I have not finished yet) and it was a pretty BIG scene so...yeah.  I was so confused for a second!

8/24
Number of books I’ve read today: 0
Total number of pages I’ve read: 0
Total Time I've read today: 0

Notes: I had a bit of a predictament.  My friend needed me because something serious happened and I had to watch her one year old daughter.  Sadly said daughter did not want to go to bed, so I didn't get any time to read at all (or sleep for that matter). :(

8/25
Number of books I’ve read today: 3 (The Secret Princess by Jessica Hart, Secrets and Trust by Evelyn LaFont and Wild and Steamy anthology)
Total number of pages I’ve read: 362pgs
Total Time I've read today: 6hrs 40 mins (7am to 9am, 6pm to 8pm, 9pm to 11:40pm)

Notes: I got a lot of reading done today!  I got very little sleep but quite a bit of reading--most of which will be featured next month for review purposes.  Secret Princess, the companion to Ordinary Girl in a Tiara, wasn't as good.  I didn't' like Lottie as much as her friend Caro and I definitely didn't like Corran as much as Philippe.  Secrets and Trust was hilarious and sexy and boy I love Walker!  Wild and Steamy was just as described, though I already knew I loved those authors so there's that.
