It’s better late than never, right? Today is the first day of June, which means it’s the start of a brand new 20 Books Of Summer challenge! This year, Cathy has handed over her hosting reins to Annabel at AnnaBookBel and Emma at Words And Peace, with huge thanks to you both for taking over the challenge. The rules are mostly the same: I’ve picked 20 books I want to read between now and 31st August. You can change the list as you go along.

I always feel a little embarrassed sharing my 20 Books Of Summer list, as it invariably includes books I should have read ages ago and books in series where I’m really badly behind. This year, I have tried to make a dent in my Netgalley shelf and Kindle Unlimited shelf. I’ve included a few short ones, but I have included my next read in the Seven Sisters series to hopefully balance it out.

So without further ado, here is my list:

Rhiannon Barnsley: The Clique

CF Barrington: When We Were Killers

Alan Bennett: Killing Time 

Mark Billingham: Death Message 

Chris Brookmyre: The Cracked Mirror

SA Cosby: Razorblade Tears

Fiona Cummins: When I Was Ten 

AA Dhand: The Chemist 

SM Govett: Believe 

Araminta Hall: Imperfect Women

Alice Hunter: The Perfect Psychopath 

Cara Hunter: In The Dark 

Michelle Kidd: Sixteen Carved Pieces 

Fiona Leitch: A Cornish Recipe For Murder 

Michelle McNamara: I’ll Be Gone In The Dark

Liz Mistry: Deadly Reckoning

Georgina Moore: River Of Stars

Bob Mortimer: The Satsuma Complex 

Lucinda Riley: The Pearl Sister 

Matt Wesolowski: Don’t Call Mum

I look forward to seeing all your challenges and taking part in this year’s challenge!
