20 Books of Summer Reading Challenge
7:56 PM
I had fun with the 20 Books of Summer reading challenge in 2024, so I'm up for doing it again this year. It's a super chill challenge where you pledge to read 10, 15, or 20 books during the challenge period (June 1 - August 31). You can pre-plan your books, choose them at random, change the titles you want to read as you go, whatever. As I said, it's very laidback. This year, there are new hosts (Annabel @AnnaBookBel and Emma @Words and Peace) and a Bingo board to add another splash of fun to the challenge. I'm going to go for 20 books and a blackout Bingo board because I'm an overachiever like that! Here are the books I *might* read:
1. The Quiet Librarian by Allen Eskens
2. Something Wilder by Christina Lauren
3. With a Vengeance by Riley Sager
4. The Beat I Drum by Dusti Bowling
5. The Library of Borrowed Hearts by Lucy Gilmore
6. Queens of Crime by Marie Benedict
7. My Friends by Fredrik Backman
8. Finlay Donovan Knocks 'Em Dead by Elle Cosimano
9. Kaua'i Storm by Tori Pahukula
10. The Women by Kristin Hannah
11. Emily of New Moon by L.M. Montgomery
12. The Summer List by Amy Mason Doan
13. The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness (re-read)
14. The Ask and the Answer by Patrick Ness (re-read)
15. Monsters of Men by Patrick Ness (re-read)
16. The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America's Great Migration by Isabel Wilkerson
17. The Wednesday Wars by Gary D. Schmidt
18. A Murder Most Fowl by Carmela Dutra
19. Dominoes, Danzon, and Death by Raquel V. Reyes
20. Botched Butterscotch by Amanda Flower
Are you participating in the 20 Books of Summer challenge? What are you planning to read this summer?

I just like the wonderful books recommended by readers.
ReplyDeleteThis is a fun challenge! I like that it's so laidback. And you've got a great list of books to read this summer. Enjoy! :D
ReplyDeleteLots of people seem to be participating in this summer event. I won't do it this year, but who knows - maybe next year. Hope you enjoy all these books. The only one I've read is The Women, but more than one of the others are on my TBR. Happy summer, Susan!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I actually read the two romances on your list. I hope you enjoy them.
ReplyDeleteThe books from your list that I'd love to read the most are Warmth of Other Suns (reread) and Finlay Donovan.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great list of books, I see some I really enjoyed on it!
