Bout of Books 17 Sign-Up, Goals, Updates & Wrap-Up (Read-a-thon)

Bout of Books

It's been some time since I participated in one of these, but with the kids in school and some major reading to catch up on, I thought it was a great time to jump in. :) Plus it will get me nice and revved up for the Tackle Your TBR Read-a-Thon I'll be hosting in a month. Want to join the Bout of Books RAT too? Go sign up here.

GOALS

I'm hoping to read seven books. These are the books I'm choosing from (I'll link up reviews if they're posted and add other books if I end up choosing something else):
The EchoingUndercover TargetKing of the Friend ZoneAll We Have Left

And I'd like to finish these (I count page numbers, so I won't count what I've already read):
Saving the Marquise's GranddaughterMasks and ShadowsThe Immortal Crown (Saga of Kings, #1)

I'm slowly getting better. Of course that meant I had to put some work in today, so not as much reading. I'm hoping to read some more tonight, but we're also watching Allegiant, so we'll see. I did break the 1,000 page mark, which is awesome!
