The moderator actually just sent out a message noting that a lot of people were no longer in that age group but the topics and group reads could still be relevant. So if you would like to join, GO FOR IT!<br /><br />I just bought Fault in Our Stars and can't wait to read it! I hear such good things! I'm about 25 pages into Mindy's book and so far, it's entertaining but I find that a lot of the "memoirs" I read tend to drop off at the end. I'll definitely review when I'm done though.

I take...what a fun challenge, it's very unique! I take it its not solely for college students since your profile says you're a therapist? :) wish I could join but it's been several years since I graduated college.<br /><br />Looks like some great books on your list to read. I recently bought Fault in our Stars and can't wait to read it but gotta get my ARCs done first, otherwise I'll never get to them! I loved The 5 people you Meet in Heaven and was kind of meh about Mindy Kaling's book. I loved the parts about her childhood because I'm an Indian-American as well so it was like reading about my childhood in many ways. Hope you enjoy your reading next week, glad to have found your blog! <a href="http://momssmallvictories.com/bout-of-books-readathon-goals/" title="Bout of Books Readathon" rel="nofollow">Here are my Bout of Books goals and hope you'll stop by.</a>Mom's Small Victorieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07559307035419062843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8998371220533659046.post-1930735003361222162013-08-15T09:33:00.058-04:002013-08-15T09:33:00.058-04:00I hear ya!

I set my times based on the fact that I usually read for at least one hour during lunch and try to fit in as much as possible. I am also fully aware that all of these goals could go out the window... but I'll try not to let that happen!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13423770221586692916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8998371220533659046.post-69491371744606793912013-08-14T16:46:38.130-04:002013-08-14T16:46:38.130-04:00I really need to set up my goals.

I hate when things are up in the air anyway, but the timing makes planning for the readathon extra difficult.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
