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.

If you like Something Strange and Deadly by @stdennard, read Dearly, Departed by @liahabel #boutofbooks— Lizzie (@LizzieSarcastic) August 25, 2017
If you like aliens, read The Cage by @megan_shepherd #boutofbooks— Lizzie (@LizzieSarcastic) August 25, 2017
If you like the X-Men and other superheros and villains, read The Young Elites by @Marie_Lu #boutofbooks— Lizzie (@LizzieSarcastic) August 25, 2017
These are all books I've really enjoyed, so I want to spread the word. Sure, The Young Elites is popular, but I think Susan Dennard (especially her Something Strange and Deadly trilogy), Lia Habel, and Megan Shepherd deserve more love and attention. Yesterday was pretty disappointing, but I didn't get home until 6pm and then I had to make dinner. I was pretty exhausted, so I didn't have much motivation. Hoping today will be better!
How has Bout of Books been going for you? What are you reading?
