#20Booksofsummer23

I may manage 12 – 15 books🤞🏼 this year rather than the anticipated 10 books but I will still see how it goes over the coming weeks.

To make it clearer, for me as much as anyone, here’s the list as it stands now:-

• The Pawnshop of Stolen Dreams by Victoria Williamson 
• Missing Pieces by Tim Weaver
• Twin Truths by Jacqueline Sutherland 
• Black Fell by Mari Hannah
• Silenced by Sólveig Pálsdóttir
• The Bleeding by Johan Gustawsson
• Deadly Autumn Harvest by Tony Mott translated by Marina Sofia from Corylus Books (Blog Tour) My post: 27 July.
• Red as Blood by Lilja Sigurðardóttir
• The Bone Hacker by Kathy Reichs
• Murder at the Residence by Stella Blómkvist

A Random Things Tours for the upcoming book The Bone Hacker by Kathy Reichs the next in the Temperance Brennan series which is published on 03 August 2023 by Simon and Schuster. My post will be on publication day!

BlogTour for Murder at the Residence by Stella Blómkvist from Corylus Books my spot is 30 August.

I am also going to have to factor the book club choice for August into my #20Booksofsummer23 reading! This would become my 11th read.

11. A Virtual Crime Book Club read for August – The Retreat by Sarah Pearse reading for 7th August.

So it looks like my 10 books will grow but whether I get to 15 I will have to see. If I do then I will choose titles from the list below which were either on my original list or my swap lists.

12. Cold, Cold Bones by Kathy Reichs

13. False Witness by Karin Slaughter 

14. A Change of Circumstance by Susan Hill

15. Murder at Montgomery Hall by Gina Kirkham

So, from the original list I read two early (Sudden Death by Rachel Lynch and When The Guilty Cry by M J Lee) and have pushed four down the list (see 12 – 15 above) to accommodate five new books and one that was moved up. The changes came about for my book club reads and BlogTours.
