Bout of Books : Reads & Goals!

Bout of Books starts at midnight on Sunday and I'm super excited! Here's my list of books I've been itching to get to and hopefully I'll get through a few during the read-a-thon.
  • Crewel - Gennifer Albin
  • Blankets - Craig Thompson
  • Ghost World - Daniel Clowes
  • Deadly Little Lies - Lauria Faria Stolarz
  • Amelia Anne is Dead and Gone - Kat Rosenfield
  • Franny & Zooey - J.D. Salinger
  • William Shakespeare's Star Wars - Ian Doescher
  • Anne Frank & Me - Cherrie Bennet
  • Shadows Cast By Stars - Catherine Knutsson
  • The Titan's Curse - Rick Riordan
  • The Book Thief - Markus Zusak
  • Shatter Me - Tahereh Mafi
  • Cinder - Merissa Meyer
  • Frostbite - Richelle Mead
  • Scott Pilgrim's Precious Little Life - Bryan Lee O'Malley
I know I won't get through all of these books (I'll be lucky to plow through half!) during the read-a-thon, but I like to have a wide range of choices for these kinds of things. I never know just what I'll be in the mood to read at any given time, so options are always a good thing. As for goals, I'm just aiming to read at least 100 pages a day (or an average of that for the week anyway, which is 700 pages in total). I think that's reachable so we'll see how it goes. If I get sucked into any one of these novels and end up binge reading I'm sure I will surpass it. Not to mention with the graphic novels, I'm sure my page count will do just fine! ;)

(I'm going to come back and cross off the books I finish as I go, just to keep track for myself!)
