This is a challenge hosted by Cathy at 746 Books and basically is designed to inspire you to read 20 books during the summer months, from 1 June until 1 September. Or less if 20 is too much. It could be 10 or 15, whatever number suits you.
You set a TBR, but you can swap out books at any time, which I like a lot!
I will try and read 20.
So here goes:
Our Dark Duet (V E Schwab)How To Stop Time (Matt Haig)The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart (Holly Ringland)- Good Omens (Neil Gaiman / Terry Pratchett)
The Dinner (Herman Koch)English Animals (Laura Kaye)Feathers (Thor Hanson)- Hamnet (Maggie O’Farrell)
Queenie (Candy Carty-Williams)Saving Ruby King (Catherine Adel West)Drift (Clare Littlemore)- Quell (Clare Littlemore)
Tower of Thorns (Juliet Marillier)- Den of Wolves (Juliet Marillier)
- Spring (William Horwood)
- Awakening (William Horwood)
Wild Beauty (Anna-Marie McLemore)The Flatshare (Beth O’Leary)- Deeplight (Frances Hardinge)
Uncommon People (David Hepworth)
All of these are subject to change, but I am pretty happy with this list. It has a bit of everything, but nothing too dark or heavy for summer reading! I am also hoping to finish some series and re-start one.
