Once again I’m taking part in the 20 Books of Summer Challenge fro 746 Books. Annnnnd my June was pretty, um, dead. Between book tours, review copies and catching up on NetGalley ARCs, I’ve read absolutely nothing from my Summer Roster. Zip. Zilch. Nada.

I’m posting this update mostly to push myself to get on it—a little public shaming. Because my lack of progress in June means it’s going to be a little more of a challenge to finish this than I’d anticipated. Absolutely do-able, but it’ll take a bit of effort.

I did actually read about 30% (so far) of the first book today…so, you know, it’s practically in the the bag.

And here’s the fairly untouched list (subject to change, but I’m going to resist the impulse to tweak as much as I can).
