Updates


The way these updates work is that you post whatever you want your fellow readathoners to see TODAY. Whether that's your progress for the previous day (today's link would be to your progress for the first day of the read-a-thon), your answer to today's challenge, an incredibly witty tweet about the book you're reading, or a hygge reading picture you posted on Instagram, link it here. The linky will be open for 24 hours. There will be another linky tomorrow. Please include a DIRECT LINK to your update so we don't have to go clicking around to find it.

If you have questions, please tweet us @boutofbooks or email us (boutofbooks at gmail dot com).

Link up your progress for Monday!

  2. For my 2019 dinner party, I am inviting the strong female characters from some of my favorite books… Offred from The Handmaid‘s Tale, Lisbeth Salander from The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games, Hermione Granger from Deathly Hallows (she had to stupify Madame DeFarge from Tale of Two Cities in order to secure the invitation) and, of course, Daenerys Targaryen from A Song of Ice and Fire. We will be dining on vegan Tex-Mex Lasagna because it is rich, layered, memorable, and good for your body and soul, just like the best books.

  4. I would invite Hermione Granger, Celaena Sardothien,Elizabeth Bennett,Isabella Lightwood,Daenerys Targaryen and Jude from the Cruel Prince. These are strong females that would enjoy a nice restaurant like Ruth Chris steak house. That way everyone could order what they want.
