Bout of Books Challenge Update Day 1 The first day of the Bout of Books Reading Challenge is over and I have to admit that it was a blast participating in the Twitter chat.  While I didn't read as much as I wanted to, I did make a tiny bit of progress in both of my books. Currently Reading:  A Feast for Crows by George R.R. Martin On page 718 of 978 Only able to get a total of 19 pages read during the day.  Currently Reading:  Watership Down by Richard Adams On page 241 of 391 Only read 18 pages before crashing out for the night. This gives me a total count of 37 pages read yesterday.  Not a great start, but I also have to say that I spent the majority of the evening watching my beloved Portland Trail Blazers come back in style to force a game 5 with the Spurs AND made a bomb dinner of barbequed salmon, bacon wrapped prawns, and a spinach and strawberry salad.  So there's that.  Today shall be better!! Happy reading, fellow Bout ...
