Hmm, I already participate in a lot of challenges, but as this is one that I think I can easily fill in since I will be reading anyway, I think I might join up! Do they have to be physical copies? Or can they be ebooks and egalleys?
ReplyDeleteNo. I rarely have the physical copies of books myself but i check them out from a library, either my library (if I've ordered it) or the public library, which includes the library subscription for Overdrive and Hoopla.
DeleteWhat a great challenge! I hope you get to all the books on your list, especially Wolf By Wolf, which you know I personally loved.
ReplyDeleteI remember that you like Wolf by Wolf that is why I put it on the list.
DeleteI love this challenge because it is so flexible - I've started my list with 10 books and aim to add the next 10 once those are all finished. You have a great selection here - good luck. Here's my master post https://cleopatralovesbooks.wordpress.com/20-books-of-summer-2016/
ReplyDeleteLooks like an interesting list - I only know the Bryson and Christie from your list (plus Austen and probably the classic spin). I'll look forward to reading about some new authors to me!
ReplyDeleteYour list looks like so much fun -- I want to start reading more Agatha Christie. You actually have several on here that are on my TBR list as well. :)
ReplyDeleteNicely balanced list. Bryson...good choice.
ReplyDeleteGreat list! You have some wonderful choices here. Check to see if any of them are 400+ pages and you can join the Big Book Summer Challenge, too!

Oh my greatness! I want to read all your books....!! At least I've read 'And then there were none' - awesome Agatha Christie. Happy reading to you, I'm quite sure it is going to be lots of fun. Here is my list: http://marelithalkink.blogspot.co.za/2016/06/the-summer-of-my-imagination.html
ReplyDeleteI'm interested too in the Lois Leveen book "The Secrets of Mary Bowser." I have it on my shelf unread which I will eventually get to -- so I'll be interested to hear if you think it's good.
