message 82: by Amber (new)

Amber I'm already participating in the #yearathon readathon this week, so I guess I can double up and make it two readathons. Maybe that will motivate me more!

The #yearathon theme this month is New Adult. I'm planning to read
Maybe Someday by Colleen Hoover and Bared to You (Crossfire, #1) by Sylvia Day .
I have a couple others on hold at the library that I will also read if they come in this week.

I'm also halfway through Anna and the French Kiss, so I'll probably finish that up tomorrow. I bought 19 books at Half Price Books this weekend, so I'm sure I'll dive into at least one of those as well.

I hope to finish Maus I by the end of this week. I think the Final Empire will take me a lot longer to finish. It would be a miracle if I do finish it any time soon.
