Challenge Complete: 20 Books of Summer

 

 

 

Thanks to the Puzzle Doctor over at In Search of the Classic Mystery I discovered another Reading Challenge that didn't interfere with my "Read from the TBR" plan for 2016. It originated at the 746 Books blog – and it didn't provide too much trouble for dedicated readers. The challenge was to read twenty books over the summer (technically the 1^st of June to 5^th September). Last year I managed to squeeze in 39 books over that same time period--and I have now completed my 20th book!

Here's my list:

1. Murder in Amsterdam by A. J. Baantjer (6/3/16)

2. Midnight in Lonesome Hollow by Kathleen Ernst (6/4/15) 

3. The Cinnamon Murders by Frances Crane (6/6/16)   

4. A Is For Arsenic by Kathryn Harkup (6/8/16)

5. The Mystery Woman by J. U. Giesy & Junius B. Smith (6/12/16)
