Bout of Books 34 Stack

My stack consists of the seven books I want to finish by the end of this month. Here are the three hard copies, the other four are on Kindle:

Music is History by Questlove (in progress)

White Nights by Ann Cleves (also on audio)

The House of the Spirits by Isabel Allende

On Kindle:

     The Woodlanders by Thomas Hardy

I usually have a stack of ten, but I'm trying to be realistic about what I can actually finish in May. As always, the goal is 1,000 pages for BoB week. Let's roll (well, in 31 hours)!

Bout of Books 34

 The Bout of Books readathon is organized by Amanda Shofner and Kelly Rubidoux Apple. It’s a weeklong readathon that begins 12:01am Monday, May 9th and runs through Sunday, May 15th in YOUR time zone. Bout of Books is low-pressure. There are reading sprints, Twitter chats, and exclusive Instagram challenges, but they’re all completely optional. For all Bout of Books 34 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team
