Hosted by Cathy@746books The 20 Books of Summer is a reading challenge from 3 June to 3 September encouraging you to read up to 20 books from your TBR . Cathy herself admits that the rules are very slack and not to worry if you don’t manage to make it. Anyone is welcome to join in the challenge – just pick your 20 books (or 15, or 10) to read over the summer and write a post about them. Then sign up to the page on 746 Books on 1st June! The challenge will run from 1st June to 3rd September 2019. You can share your lists and your progress on twitter using #20BooksofSummer
There are are few books here that meant to read last summer so I really hope I manage it this year. 😉

Given that I worked out it will take me almost 20 years at three books a week to clear my TBR as long as I don’t add to it, maybe I should do this!
It’s good fun and it doesn’t matter if you don’t stick to the list.
Good luck Nicki, thanks for taking part x
Thanks and for hosting x
I don’t want to even think about how long it will take me to get through my TBR…..
Same here! 😀
Scary isn’t it?
Some great sounding choices. I’ve read The Burning Chambers, Once Upon A River and Shelter, and enjoyed them all. Good luck with the challenge 😁
Thanks glad you enjoyed those ones 😀
I never stick to these challenges, I tried the Beat The Backlist challenge last year and failed. I’m picking summer reads this year and one or two maybe from my tbr. I might get to it one day
I’m terrible at challenges too! This one is great fun because you don’t have to keep to the list, so can tick off any 20 books you read this summer!
I used to enjoy Robert Goddard, but haven’t read anything by him recently. Hope you get on with Panic Room, if you manage to read it this summer. Good luck with the challenge!
Thanks this is supposed to a really good one!
Some great choices there, Nicki! I’ll be joining in again too. Jus got need to put the finishing touches to my list.
Thanks looking forward to seeing your list!
Ooh good luck!! I am sure we can all do our best to encourage one another to blitz these lists through the Summer!!
Thanks and let’s do that!
I am working on my list! I love this challenge!
Surprisingly, I have only read one book from your list – Becoming Bonnie. I think you will really enjoy it!
They won’t make my summer challenge, but I really want to read Becoming Dorothy and The Light Between Us.
Good luck!! x
Thanks! I remember your review for Becoming Bonnie 🙂
Your list is amazing, Nicki! I’ve read and loved a few of these, my favorite being The Lighthouse Keeper’s Daughter.
Thanks I’m really looking forward to one 🙂
I think you’ll enjoy Lighthouse Keeper’s Daughter! 👍 Happy Reading! 🙌
Thanks I’m looking forward to that one 🙂
Hope it’s a good read for you! Do you have a lighthouse on Jersey?
We do it’s called Corbiere Lighthouse and it’s off the southwest coast.
It would be interesting field trip during the read!👍
Good idea!
Great choices! I’m going to join in this year, I think I’ve got my list sorted!
Excellent looking forward to seeing your list!
Great list Nicki. I’m joining again to this year and may have some that I hoped to read last year and didn’t back on the list. Good Luck! xx
Thanks and good luck to you too xx
My list is ready I just need to post now! Very excited by this ❤️ Looking forward to your reviews xx
Excellent looking forward to your list!
Just have to get it set up! I’ve decided to do 20 books of autumn too 😆😆
I didn’t know there was an autumn one as well!
I don’t think there is and Eva told me there wasn’t so I made one up for me 🤣
Good idea! 😂
Great selection of books! I was just looking through all of my books today to try and pick twenty for this summer challenge but at the moment I seem to have about three times that many that I want to read! I think The Burning Chambers and The Wayward Girls might make my list, they both sound so good! I loved Once Upon a River and 55, I hope you love them as much as I did. 🙂
I could’ve added loads more and probably end up swapping some fir others like last year.
Your list looks great! I loved once upon a river, it was so beautifully written 😄
Excellent!
I loved The Burning Chambers! Looking forward to the 2nd in this series. Great list too!
Thanks I’m looking forward to listening to it!
I haven’t read any of these yet, but quite a few are on my TBR as well! I hope you will enjoy these!
Thanks!
I love your choices Nicki. I will also be doing this challenge. It will be the third summer for me. I am thinking that I will select books that are on my TBR, but that I get from the library. In the summer I read a lot outside by the pool and I can’t read on my tablet. I will have to put my list together this week.
Thanks and I love the sound of your list!
Oh, I’d love to join, but my list of books to read is too big, haha! I’ll be reading The Wayward Girls in June! I’m looking forward to discussing Anything You Do Say with you! 🙂
Looking forward to reading The Wayward Girls and Anything You Do Say 😀
I can’t recommend Anything You Do Say highly enough!
Excellent!
Great choice of books I would happily have them all on my list! I loved 55.
Happy Reading!
Thanks I can’t wait to read 55!
too bad I’m kindda late to the party but I will be sure to join and see how far I can go. My TBR keeps growing.
I’m sure Cathy won’t mind!
Good to know
