Ack!! It's less than a month away from Bout of Books!! This will be my 3rd and I'm super excited to be joining in again. Next year my reading may not be as much as this year was, so I hope to get the year started off with a bang, with a lot of books read!
My previous Bout of Books have gone so well, I had a lot of fun with them. Here's what my final stats looked like for each, if you'd like to see ~
- Bout of Books 10 ~ Wrap Up ~ completed 17 books
- Bout of Books 11 ~ Wrap Up ~ completed 20 books & 7 comics
GOALS
If you are a regular visitor here at KaKiJoKoJa, than you know I can never ever set up a list of books to read. A list, for me, makes it sure that I WON'T read those. I change my mind too much to make a list, so my goals never include books, just general things I'd like to accomplish. For BoB12, my goals (subject to change) are ~
My Bout of Books Goals
Time devoted to Reading
- Daily, except for updates & challenges
- Complete at least TWENTY-FIVE (25) books
- Complete at least TEN (10) comics
- Complete all challenges that interest me ~ (DH got a new Kindle Fire, so I can take photos!)
- Work on at least 3 series that I'm more than 3 books behind on
My goals are an increase from last time. As I mentioned, I want to get the year off to a great start, and what better way than Bout of Books. I'll be more picky on what I read-a-thons I join this coming year because come March-ish, I'll be spending more time on one of my other favorite hobbies ~ VIDEO GAMES ~ and may only be listening to audiobooks at night for a while. So hopefully a good strong January will kick the year off great!
If you are joining in BoB and love to have someone following you and cheer you on, leave me a comment. I love the interaction of the read-a-thons almost as much as the reading itself. I hope you all have a great read-a-thon as well. Can't wait to get started!! See y'all then!
This will be my first BoB and I'll DEFINITELY be taking part and visiting others' blogs! So super excited!
ReplyDeleteWhat happens in March? :)
Glad you are joining in. You're gonna love it. It's so much fun!! :) Look forward to see what you're doing for goals. :)
DeleteAt tax time, I get to spend money on computer parts and build us a gaming computer!! :) I'm super excited about it and have been planning for days, even though it's months off. It's gonna be so great. I'll miss reading as much, but I love gaming as well, so it'll be great to have another system to game on, that will be, hopefully, better than our Xbox360 and PS3. :)
Ooh, so much fun! My boyfriend helped me build my first PC last year, and it's GREAT for gaming! We love to play together. :)
DeleteIf you ever play games on Steam, we should be friends! My handle is ceruleanseaotter.
Oh how neat that you have a built one!! Did you have fun doing it? I can't wait to get mine. I have been looking at parts, I keep changing my mind. I haven't done anything with Steam yet, except for the public test of the Talos Principle, which I loved. I'm on there though ~ ImzadiRose ~ that's who I am everywhere. :D I'll see if I can figure out a way to add ya, I haven't explored enough yet.
DeleteGah! This is what happens when I get sucked into Christmas present crafting! I'm over two weeks late for sign up and BoB is totally sneaking up on me. I'll be participating...I just have to figure out goals. My post goes up tomorrow! Glad you'll be taking part as well!
