Wrapping it up I can say:
- nope, didn't finish one of the books I was hoping to finish
- but made good progress with another one
- read like a crazy person on several occasions here a few pages and there a few pages, was fun, though
- didn't post even one blog post during the whole week - oh wonder!
I read about 350 book pages all in all (more probably, counting all the bits and pieces) and that is more than I would read in an average week, so yay!
And also I really enjoyed following the #boutofbooks tag and seeing what others read.

Bout of Books 12 - Plans
I'm in again!
Bout of Books 12, because of course reading with a hashtag is so much more fun! ;)
The good thing is that I won't be working for three of the Bout of Books days (yay me!) and this will hopefully mean that I will get a lot of reading done, which was what I planned on doing anyway. And on my work days I'll also hopefully spend at least an hour commute reading everyday at least (except for when public transportation once again is unable to cope with winter and then I'll spend +X hours waiting for trains etc), plus whatever I'll be up to after work.
What I want to do during Bout of Books:
- finish two books during this week (considering I'm reading like 10 books at the same time, finishing two would be great), top of the list are Among Others and The Handmaid's Tale
- read a lot of Lion Feuchtwanger's Success, so that I'll be all up to date when visiting the exhibition about the book mid of January
- write reviews of whatever I read
- finally come here again and often, book blog and post some of the nearly finished posts in storage...
So here we go!
Good luck to all participants!
