This officially wraps up the Bout of Weeks Readathon. In totally, I read four books, instead of my goal of 5 originally. Considering everything that was going on last week, with events for Seniors and my Graduation on Saturday, I think I did a pretty good job!
I had a lot of fun with this readathon. I wish I did more of the Twitter chats though. I kind of participated in half of one, but I couldn't find time for the other two Twitter chats, but I still had fun making friends and hanging out with other readers and adding books to my TBR list.
I didn't do as well on the blogging front though. I only made a post on one challenge. See it here!
Other updates: I will be holding a giveaway starting later this week to celebrate my graduation and reaching 600 followers, so be sure to check back later to enter the giveaway!!
Below are the books that I managed to read:
1. Trial of Tears by Chris Semal (288 pages)
2. Hope's Daughter by Melanie Cusick-Jones (389 pages) - Review
3. City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare (424 pages)
4. Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver (375 pages)

I didn't get that much read today because I've been so busy with packing and just Senior Week event. I'm graduating on Saturday so there're a bunch of things going on. Hopefully I'll get more done tomorrow since I'll have some free time in the afternoon.

I GRADUATED!!! I got my degree today - Bachelor of Science in Business Administration!! Today's been really hectic and I only fit in reading whenever I'm waiting. I had to line up with my fellow students before the ceremony and while waiting I got some reading done. It's been a long day and I know I can't read all my listed books above, but hopefully I'll be able to finish Pandemonium tomorrow when I'm flying home.

Congratulations on graduating!!!! That's super exciting.
And whoa - gratz on participating in a Read-a-thon during your final week of college! You were awesome.
Thanks for stopping by my Bout of Books wrap-up...and congratulations on your graduation!
I had only read the first 3 Naomi Novik books prior to 2012, but I finally decided I had to catch up with the series. Some books are better than others, but as a whole the series is still going strong!
You read so much this week! Congrats! And OMG you graduated!!! I can't wait for my graduation in November, you got really excited about mine too! :)
That's great -- i can't believe that you managed to read that much during graduation week!
Thanks!! I actually didn't plan it that well cuz I forgot it was the last week of college lol. Well we were already done with finals before so that's OK.
Thanks! I read the 1st 3 books too. I thought I'd take a break before continuing but then I never got back into it. I'll try to catch up soon!
haha thanks! It's really unbelievable and hasn't exactly sunk in yet. I guess when I start work it'll truly sink in!
I had books on my kindle on the phone so whenever I have free time (like waiting in line) I would sneak a few pages in!
Woohoo for graduating!!! Congrats!
Ooh, how did you like Hope's Daughter. Have heard good things about it.
