#20BooksOfSummer Challenge
I am delighted to announce that I have reduced my TBR list to 777 by reading 20 titles during the 2025 #20BooksOfSummer reading challenge! I have also achieved my Goodreads Reading Challenge goal of 33 books, and have now increased that to 41 books.
Many of these titles have been sitting in my TBR pile for quite some time, and although I have chosen to read more of the shorter ones, I do feel a great sense of achivement being able to move so many titles to the 'Read' shelf. Although I have had to swap out a few titles along the way, it's all within the rules!
I now resolve to read what I already have before adding more to the pile... Good Luck with that one, I hear you say!
Here is my final list of books read:

#20BooksOfSummer Challenge
From Sunday June 1st to Sunday August 31st
20 Books of Summer is back! With new hosts
As I didn't take part in this challenge last year I missed this post, but when searching for it recently, I found two bloggers have generously donated their time to run this event, AnnaBookBel and Emma of Words and Peace.
I've had a quick look at my physical bookcase and immediately see 14 unread books. There are now 778 unread e-books and 5 audiobooks. I really do need to stop adding books and tackle reading those I have already!
To get started, I have chosen to read 20 books.
Ambitious? Definitely! However, for my goals this year I am trying to read 10 short stories so that should help me to achieve a good half of this figure. And remember, the challenge is fluid, so I can always opt to read fewer or shorter books and still finish the challenge feeling like a winner!
If you want to join me, sign up here.
The rules are simple:
- The #20BooksofSummer2025 challenge runs from Sunday June 1st to Sunday August 31st
- The first rule of 20 Books is that there are no real rules, other than signing up for 10, 15 or 20 books and trying to read from your TBR.
- Pick your list in advance, or nominate a bookcase to read from, or pick at whim from your TBR.
- If you do pick a list, you can change it at any time – swap books in/out.
- Don’t get panicked at not reaching your target.
- Just enjoy a summer of great reading and make a bit of space on your shelves!
So now to pick my reads:
| Book No. | Title | Author |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | The Girl from Normandy | Rachel Sweasey |
| 2 | Brighter Days for the Cornish Girls | Betty Walker |
| 3 | One Click Away | Joanne Ryan |
| 4 | Girl in the Castle: Henriette's Highland Hideaway | Lizzie Lamb |
| 5 | Secret Psychic Stories Volume 1 | Margaret Solis |
| 6 | Welcome to New York | Luana Ferraz |
| 7 | How to Begin Again | Cindy Ray Hale |
| 8 | Girl At Christmas | Rhoda Baxter |
| 9 | Witching Again! | Stephanie Dagg |
| 10 | The Unmumsy Mums | Sarah, The Unmumsy Mum |
| 11 | Three Men and a Maybe | Katey Lovell |
| 12 | Raining Men and Corpses: A Raina Sun Mystery | Anne R Tan |
| 13 | The Proposal | Lily Zante |
| 14 | Perfect Christmas | Elizabeth Grey |
| 15 | Close Your Eyes and Count to Three | Mark Hysom |
| 16 | Pat's Pantry | Rhoda Baxter |
| 17 | Time To Move On | Ian Wilfred |
| 18 | Cold Grave | Jenny O'Brien |
| 19 | A Brahminy Sunrise | Maggie Christensen |
| 20 | Mrs Claus Saves Christmas | Mona Marple |
I've set up a Goodreads Bookshelf and will begin with The Girl from Normandy as that's for a blog tour in June and then work through some of the shorter stories to bolster my sense of achievement. Nobody said I have to read War and Peace for the challenge and I'm just hoping to reduce my unread bookshelf a tad. The trouble is that I add more books than I actually have time to read!
