I’ve been seeing this challenge around Instagram and I thought I’d try and join in. It’s originally the brain child of @cathy_746books I believe so do join in if you’d like.
These are the 20 books I’d like to read this summer. I’m a bit of a mood reader so I’m not going to guarantee I’ll read all these but I’m going to give it a good go!
⭐The Vintage Shop Of Second Chances by Libby Page
⭐The Illusionist by Liz Hyder
⭐ Conviction by Jack Jordan
⭐ Still Life by Sarah Winman
⭐ Mother’s Boy by Patrick Gale
⭐Bad Men by Julie Mae Cohen
⭐The Witching Tide by Margaret Meyer
⭐Vera Wong’s Unsolicited Advice For Murderers by Jess Sutanto
⭐Things We Never Got Over by Lucy Score
⭐The Secrets Of Rochester Place by Iris Costello
⭐ Death Of A Bookseller by Alice Slater
⭐A Killer In The Family by Gytha Lodge
⭐ Yellowface by Rebecca F Kuang
⭐ Romantic Comedy by Curtis Sittenfeld
⭐ Fyneshade by Kate Griffin
⭐ The Memory Of Animals by Clare Fuller
⭐One Puzzling Afternoon by Emily Critchley
⭐The Girl With The Red Hair by Buzzy Jackson
⭐ Scarlet by Genevieve Cogman
⭐More Confessions Of A Forty Something F##k Up by Alexander Potter
Of course as soon as I took this picture I remembered a few books that I wanted to include, like Our Hideous Progeny, and hadn’t so I might swop a few later on.
Have you read any of these? Which book should I start with?


Now you know I’m going to say start with the Patrick Gale don’t you? Or Libby Page if you want something light and cheerful!

Good luck with challenge. I haven’t read any of your 20 but three of them – Mother’s Boy, Still Life and The Memory of Animals – are in my TBR pile. My 20 are my oldest paperbacks and, unlike you, I’m going to try to stick rigidly to my list. I need the discipline.
