In my original plans I was going to skip this Bout of Books because my birthday falls during this week and usually we’re very busy. Not so much this year. 

Bout of Books is a week long readathon starting Monday May 11th and ending on Sunday the 17th. For information you can visit their site here. For this week I’m going to concentrate on knocking out a few short stories and novellas I have piling up in my TBR. 

This time I’ll be using my twitter to update progress and participate in challenges. It can be difficult trying to balance multiple posts and a packed week of reading. I’ll just post one big wrap-up a few days after the readathon is complete.  

Right now this is my plan for the readathon:

“Anxiety is the Dizziness of Freedom” – Ted Chiang     70

A Dead Djinn in Cairo – P. Djèlí Clark                              40

The Haunting of Tram Car 015 – P. Djèlí Clark              130

Murderbot #2: Artificial Condition – Martha Wells      160

Murderbot #3: Rogue Protocol – Martha Wells             150

To Be Taught, If Fortunate – Becky Chambers               170
