COYER Red, White & Blue Read-a-thon (4 - 10 July)

REDWHITEBLUE

I'm taking part in the first COYER read-a-thon of the year - the Red, White & Blue Read-a-thon to celebrate America's Fourth of July. Red, White & Blue will take place from 4 July to 10 July.

This will also be my first ever read-a-thon so I'm going to go easy on myself and aim for 3 books of each colour. And, yes, I'm a bit late to the party with all three of them but at least I'm getting there!

RED:
The Elite (The Selection, #2)

WHITE:
The One (The Selection, #3)

BLUE:
The Fault in Our Stars

PROGRESS:
Saturday - The Elite = started and 53% complete
Sunday - The Elite = 85% complete
Monday - The Elite = Finished. The One = started and finished.
Tuesday - Didn't read
Wednesday - Didn't read
Thursday - Didn't read
Friday - Didn't read

So, the Read-a-thon started out so well for me... then I got ill and could barely stay awake never mind read. Hopefully I can do better in the next one.

Feature and Follow (29 May)

The Feature & Follow is hosted by TWO hosts, Parajunkee of  Parajunkee’s View  and Alison of  Alison Can Read . Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it’ll allow us to show off more new blogs! I'm one of the featured blogs this week! Along with Amanda of  The Darling Bookworm . This week’s Question: How many books have you got on your TBR list? I recently had a bit of a cull of my TBR list so now it is sitting at 269. I'm trying my hardest to get it below 200 by the end of the year but I really don't see it happening. I'd currently be happy if I managed to get it below 225. However, I did recently have a look through my TBR on Goodreads and deleted a few books that I don't think I will actually ever read - I'm not even to sure how they got there anyway. Follow me via  Goodreads ,  Facebook ,  Bloglovin  and  Pinterest  and also via email to myexpandingbookshelf@gmail.com.  Feel free to leave a comment.
