Bout of Books 7.0 Goals/Updates!

 So this is my first Bout of Books and I'm really excited to be participating in it!

The books I plan on reading!

So I was gonna make a video to show all the books I planned on reading, but if you've seen my two previous blog posts, you'll know I'm having issues with Blogger/YouTube and adding vids to my posts (without having to do a ridiculous amount of formatting to make it look decent). So you guys are just gonna get stuck with a list until I get the prob figured out. 

• Until I Die (Revenants #2) by Amy Plum
• Die For Her (Revenants #2.5) by Amy Plum
• If I Should Die (Revenants #3) by Amy Plum
• Dare You To (Pushing The Limits #2) by Katie McGarry
• PODs (PODs #1) by Michelle Pickett
• Mila 2.0 (Mila 2.0 #1) by Debra Driza
• Fighting To Survive (As The World Dies #2) by Rhiannon Frater
• Rise (Eve #3) by Anna Carey
• The Lives We Lost (Fallen World #2) by Megan Crewe
• Clockwork Princess (The Infernal Devices #3) by Cassandra Clare
• Fuse (Pure #2) by Julianna Baggott
• Shadows in the Silence (Angelfire #3) by Courtney Allison Moulton

Other Goals:

• Participate in at least one Twitter chat! I seriously have had no motivation to even get on the computer lately, let alone Twitter but I swear on my life I'm going to make the effort to get in on a chat!
