I Just Want You to Know, The Rock Star in Seat 3A Glimmers.

I am reading the books in the title above during the Bout of Books 7.0 read-a-thon. I want to extend my reading luck so I am reading the books used in my prize-winning entry in the Book Sentence Mini-Challenge from Dewey’s 24-Hour Read-a-thon last month. Huzzah!

Bout of Books 7.0 is my second read-a-thon – ever. I like the fact that it is a week-long challenge and is low pressure.  I hope that I will be able to easily pace my reading over several days. [I got a little distracted and socialized a lot in Dewey’s.  LOL!]. I might add another book or two, depending on how my reading week goes.

Please drop by this blog post during the week of May 13th to offer encouragement, say hello, discuss these books, or just check out my status updates.

What are you planning to read during the bout?
