the front lawn of our cottage where I do a lot of my reading in the summer
Cape John, Nova Scotia
I’m assuming I’ll read a fair amount this summer and hope that I’ll be able to fit in eighteen titles before the middle of September. I guess it will depend on how much company I have, how much gardening I do, and how many little road trips we take…
If you click on the cover it will take you to the Goodreads description of the book.
Here are the next eighteen titles on my TBR:
-
“Alex” by Pierre Lemaitre
(this is the selection chosen by my ‘in person’ book club that meets on June 28th)
2. “Valentina” by S. E. Lynes
I’m reading this one for a Blackbird Digital Books blog tour on June 30th

I’m reading this William Morrow title for Edelweiss
(I’ve read this author before and enjoyed her work)

This TBR list should take me up to mid September – I’m hoping…
Wish me luck! I’ll post in September to let you know if I made my target, fell short of it, or exceeded it. Hopefully the latter.
Happy Summer reading!

Great list! Aren’t you joining in with the #20booksofsummer challenge over at 746 Books and on Twotter (that’s a typo, but I’ve decided I like it… 😉 )? The rules are very relaxed. I’ll be reading Before the Fall this summer too, and Entry Island is brilliant! I actually think I liked it even better than the Lewis trilogy… enjoy!

Oh! Wish I had known about #20booksofsummer before posting. I can easily amend my list. If I start at June 1st as stipulated then 20 shouldn’t be a problem. Thanks for the heads up!

Great TBR! Looks like you will have some interesting titles to look forward to this summer. That reading spot looks great as well by the way. 🙂

Yes. I love reading outside. It is almost always windy there so reading on my Kindle works better. No pages for the wind to ruffle…

Ah yes I prefer my kindle when I read outside as well… It’s a lot more practical in general.
