Bout of Books 20

Time for one of my favourite readathons (and my third this month). Though, I miss session more than a participate. Busy life.

 The Bout of Books read-a-thon is organized by Amanda Shofner and Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal. It is a week long read-a-thon that begins 12:01am Monday, August 21st and runs through Sunday, August 27th 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 20 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team

  • Catch up on reading challenges.

Books to Read

Thoughts: I went to the pictures, and read at T.G.I.F while I ate alone. I saw Atomic Blond (which I did not know was based on a grafic novel) and the Hitman's Bodygaurd (which was just glorious excuses for Ryan Reynolds and Samuel L. Jackson (he's called Kincaid) to swear at each other. Recommend). I liked both these films and made me pumped so I only listen to music the 2 hour ride home. The IT 2017 looks terrible and seems to miss the point. Scary Clown is not why It is scary.
