Rainbow of Books Challenge - Bout of Books

The Rainbow of Books Challenge is hosted by Neon Yeti Reads as part of the Bout of Books Readathon. This was a little bit of a challenge for me, as I'm moving soon and most of my books are packed up in boxes. But here's what I found for my rainbow book tower:

1. White - Rain by Amanda Sun

2. Red - Dear Killer by Katherine Ewell

3. Orange - Eon by Alison Goodman

4. Yellow - The Help by Kathryn Stockett

5. Green - Also Known As by Robin Benway

6. Blue - Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi

7. Indigo - Echo by Alyson Noel

8. Violet - Tiger's Voyage by Colleen Houck

9. Black - Bewitching by Alex Flinn

The only book I've read from this list is Dear Killer, but I can't wait to read them all!

Books You're Looking Forward To Challenge

So I literally just finished reading my second book for the readathon (Killer Instinct by S.E. Green) and my brain feels like it has been scrambled. That book just left me in shock basically, so I decided to take a break and work on this challenge. This challenge is part of the Bout of Books readathon and it is hosted by River City Reading. Basically, you create a list of books that you are looking forward to reading. So, here's my list in no particular order.

 

1. How To Tell if Your Cat is Plotting to Kill You

2. The Program by Suzanne Young

3. Seriously...I'm Kidding by Ellen DeGeneres

4. Rebel Belle by Rachel Hawkins

5. S. by J.J. Abrams

6. Room by Emma Donoghue

7. Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell

8. Splintered by A.G. Howard

9. Weird Things Customers Say in Bookstores

10. Through the Zombie Glass by Gena Showalter

Bout-Of-Books Readathon!

I have decided to take place in the Bout of Books Readathon this year! It is from May 12 through May 18th. Here's the blurb from the Bout of Books sign-up page:

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, May 12th and runs through Sunday, May 18th in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure, and the only reading competition is between you and your usual number of books read in a week. There are challenges, giveaways, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 10 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team

I don't have any goals, other than reading as much as I possibly can. I can't wait to get started!
