20 Books of Summer
Just a quick check-in on the challenge hosted by Cathy at 746 Books.

I’ve read 5 of the 20–and am about halfway through a sixth. Compared to last year at this time, I’m in great shape–because I hadn’t read anything off my list. I’d hoped for a little more, but since I don’t have anything of the weight and length of The Border left on my list, I figure I’ll breeze through most of this (there are at 4-6 likely one-day reads on the list, so that’ll help). I picked a good and entertaining list this year—and I’m chipping away at ol’ Mt. TBR, too.

(subject to change, as is allowed, but I’m going to resist the impulse to tweak as much as I can).
