20 Books of Summer Challenge


Cathy at 746 Books is hosting a personal 20 Books of Summer Challenge to help her tackle her TBR mountain.  I have 20 books left to read of my TBR pile unless I acquire more books.  hehe a bad habit of avid readers, I know.  Given the coincidence, I'm game to join her on her challenge from now to September 6.  The timing even works for me cause I will be leaving Alaska shortly thereafter and need to have my box of books read by then as I do not want to haul it with me to the next location.


  1. Turn Your Passion into Profit - Walt Goodridge - SKIMMED
  2. Become a Better You - Joel Osteen
  3. The Story of Stuff - Anne Leonard
  4. First Family - David Baldacci DID NOT FINISH
  5. Cleaning Nabakov's House - Leslie Daniels DID NOT FINISH
  6. I Capture the Castle - Dodie Smith DID NOT FINISH
  7. Domestic Violets - Matthew Norman FINISHED
  8. The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid - Bill Bryson DID NOT FINISH
  9. The Book of Joe - Jonathan Tooper DID NOT FINISH
  10. A Walk Across America - Peter Jenkins DID NOT FINISH
  11. The Grapes of Wrath - John Steinbeck
  12. The Winter of Our Discontent - John Steinbeck
  13. One Lavender Ribbon - Heather Bureh - ebook
  14. The Theory of Opposites - ebook DID NOT FINISH
  15. Moving Day - Jonathan Stone - ebook
  16. Happily Ever After - Susan May Warren - ebook
  17. The Widow File - S.G. Redling - ebook
  18. Fools Rush In - Janice Thompson - ebook
  19. Mint Juleps and Justice - Nancy Naigle - ebook
  20. Hidden - Catherine M - ebook

    21. If you look at the box closely, you will see that there are more books in box than I listed.  The reason is I have read a few already.

    Ok, game on, Cathy.

    lol. They are in a box because I mailed them to myself in Alaska. I don't have a bookshelf or any shelf for that matter to put them on. Sadly they will remain in a box until I finish them.

    Ooh! I love the idea of this challenge! I've been thinking about my tbr stacks every since I talked to you about it a few months ago. I think I'll join too. Good luck.

    Fewer books to move is certainly a motivating goal. Best of luck with your summer reading!

    Best of luck with your list! I'll admit I don't know most of those books, but it sounds like you're all set! :)
