| My Goals |

• Finish a Series - I am thinking that I would finish the Divergent series by reading Allegiant during this read-a-thon
• Read a book that has been on my TBR for a while
• Read one of the books I have out of the library

 

So I don't have many goals for this read-a-thon, I think that I will just read whatever I feel like at the time and just see where that will take me.

Hello everyone,

i originally signed up to the bout of books read-a-thon using my Goodreads account, but then i realized today as i went to do my update that using this website for my updates would in fact be very difficult so that is where The Coffee House comes in.

This is now where i shall write my updates and book reviews for this read-a-thon and future read-a-thons as well as blog posts in between about all the things i love, including books, baking, crafts, music and so much more.

I hope you enjoy this and keep up with the reading.
