So I have to amend my reading selection for Bout of Books 6.0. This past weekend I went on a MISSION trying to find 2 of the 4 books that I wanted to read most, but no luck so I selected two others that were also pretty high on my wishlist.

Monday, 1/7:Updates
Total number of books I’ve read: 1
Books read: "The Statistical Probability of Love At First Sight" by Jennifer E. Smith
Today #insixwords: Why'd it take me so long?
Challenges: Scientific Discovery
Things I learned on Twitter: That ALL bloggers are made of awesome (but we actually already knew that), that I need to bake a very large cake with a nail file and/or a book inside for our Twitter-jailbirds, I found acceptance for being a bookslut, and the best part was that I found a co-conspirator to help execute our evil plans for world domination.
Tuesday, 1/8:
Total number of books I’ve read: Finished 1 and partway through another
Books read: The Statistical Probability of Love At First Sight (finished) and Just Breathe (started)
Today #insixwords: Too much work, not enough reading.
Challenges: None
Things I learned on Twitter: That in order to describe the #BestSixMinutesOfYourLife, I might have to break grammar rules - Oy! I'm not the only one that didn't get a lot of reading done; strength in solidarity! Stupid boys make you want to beat them and love on them, then rinse and repeat!
Wednesday, 1/9:
Total number of books I’ve read: Fudged my own rule and put book 2 down to jump ahead to book 3 so 1 finished and 2 others started total.
Books read: The Statistical Probability of Love At First Sight (finished), Just Breathe (started), Drink Deep (started)
Today #insixwords: Planning-schmaning, I'm gonna wing it!
Challenges: None
Things I learned on Twitter: That Twitter lies by telling me that I'm doing better than I actually am, lol. I wuv you guys! That Nutella is Nectar of the Gods (again, we knew this!). Smut is good for the soul and there's nothing better than "a rake with a heart of gold who wants your skirt by your ears". #epictweet. Leather is a requirement for UF heroines and my weapon of choice is a Machete...oh yeahhhh! And that #boutofbooks is ALL about reading, shenanigans and friendship *aww*
