Hello everyone! Here's my wrap up post for the 19th annual Bout of Books Readathon!  Even though I didn't finish the book I was reading "Throne of Glass" by Sarah J. Maas, I still got a kick out of reading through this book that has been on my shelf for many years and I 'm still kicking myself for not reading this book sooner!  Let's hope I do better on the next Bout of Books readathon!
