All of this information is from the Bout of Books Blog itself, so to save you another tab, I'll post it all here!
The Bout of Books Read-a-Thon was created by Amanda @ On a Book Bender on a complete whim in August 2011*. It took on a life of its own and was such a hit that Amanda decided to do it again and turn it into a somewhat regular occurrence.

~Bout of Books is a week long read-a-thon, usually from 12:01am on a Monday through 11:59pm on a Sunday in whatever time zone you are in.

~It is low pressure, meaning participants are only asked to push themselves to read more than they normally would during any given week. There is no competition between readers.

~How much time a reader wants, and can commit, to read, tweet, or network with fellow bloggers is left to individual preference. All challenges and giveaways are optional.

~Networking with fellow bloggers is actively encouraged, though never required.

~Use Twitter to post updates throughout the read-a-thon. Everyone will be tweeting with the #boutofbooks hashtag.
