Cathy over at 746Books is hosting her 20 Books of Summer challenge for the tenth year. You can choose to read 20, 15 or 10 books from your TBR shelves and the challenge begins on Saturday 1 June and finishes on Sunday 1 September. You can find the rules and sign up details for this year here.
This is my second list, mainly because I realised that I’d included two books of over 600 pages and with the best will in the world I can’t see me managing to read both of them, so I’m saving Mrs Robinson’s Disgrace by Kate Summerscale for later this year and substituting Beowulf by Michael Murpurgo. I’d also included a book I’d already read a few years ago, Put On By Cunning by Ruth Rendell and substituted The Tree of Hands.
