Update 1 #20BooksOfSummer Challenge #Books @Cathy746Books

20 Books of Summer Challenge The #20BooksOfSummer challenge begins next Monday, 3rd June, and this is just a quick update on my preparations so far. As expected my TBR pile has crept up. Not as much as I'd have expected, but that's probably due to finding that I had a couple of duplicate files amongst my ebooks, and being able to delete two 'samples'. I have, however, acquired 14 new ebooks this week, and today I learned that I've won another paperback in a raffle! Having previously chosen my 20 books to read during the challenge, I am now about to make my first substitution! I was very naughty last week and signed up for another blog tour - well, three actually, but two take place after this challenge has finished, so I'm not counting those!  The Humundo Sorterium goes on tour on 19th June, so unfortunately that has bumped Lily Zante's Honeymoon For One off my list. It's not like I'll never get to it. The great thing about this challenge is that it has helped to focus my mind on what I'm going to read. Usually, I don't think about more than 3 books at a time. However, having to produce a list of 20 titles has motivated me to carefully consider what I have in my library, and when I'm going to read it. So to the titles I intend to read. They are drawn from my Netgalley shelf, Blog Tours I've signed up to, and e-books I've acquired. This list is still subject to change, as I've recently joined a book club, and expect to be reading at least two books chosen by the group which I'm certain won't be on my list. This is not a reading order, just a list. I've added most of the titles to my Goodreads 20BooksOfSummer shelf, where I'll be recording my progress. I'm a little apprehensive, now that I think about what I'm taking on - 20 books in 91 days - but this challenge is flexible, and will allow me to drop my goal from 20 to 15 to 10 if necessary. I've started high to motivate me to crack on. With my Goodreads reading challenge, I start low and increase it if things are going well. That challenge is less forgiving, and I don't want an 'incomplete' ribbon on my challenge board. So, my revised list is: Arranged Blog Tours Daniel Thompson - The Humundo Sorterium Rosie Green - Confetti at the Little Duck Pond Cafe  Robin Bennett - Space Dragons Romola Farr - Bridge to Eternity Simon Edge - A Right Royal Face-off My Netgalley shelf: Debbie Viggiano - The Man You Meet in Heaven Cate Woods - More Than a Feeling Sarah Morgan - The Christmas Sisters Kate Hewitt - Cupcakes for Christmas  Ebooks Rich Amooi - Coffee, Tea or Me Rich Amooi - Happy to be Stuck with You: A Short Romantic Comedy Stephanie Dagg - Anna Partridge in a Pear Tree Stephanie Dagg - Two Myrtle Doves Yawatta Hosby - Twisted Obsession Marina Johnson - A Confusion of Murders David P Permutter - 13 - The 70's - A True Story Elise Sax - An Affair to Dismember Donna Siggers - Betrayal Stefanie Simpson - Saving Suzi Zara Stoneley - The Holiday Swap The #20BooksOfSummer challenge runs for 13 weeks from 3rd June, and if you'd like to join in, Cathy’s blog post will tell you all you need to know. Why not join the fun, and see if you can knock a few titles off your TBR list this summer?
