So as my reading is going pretty well this year I decided it was time that I took part in a challenge, and thought that this one (hosted by Cathy over at 746Books) was ideal. The twist is that I’ll be reading only books on my Kindle app; this doesn’t mean that I’m giving up on #ReadingMuriel2018 – I (foolishly) believe I can do both!

The challenge runs from 1 June to 3 September and seems quite flexible in terms of rules, and I have come up with an initial list which I reserve the right to change if something else grabs me at some point.

My twenty books, in no particular order) are:

• You Were Never Really Here by Jonathan Ames
• Things We Didn’t See Coming by Steven Amsterdam
• All That Remains by Sue Black
• The Boy on the Bridge by MR Carey
• The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet by Becky Chambers
• Who Killed Sherlock Holmes by Paul Cornell
• The Cathedral of Known Things by Edward Cox
• Black Dahlia, Red Rose by Piu Eatwell
• Winter Tide by Ruthanna Emrys
• The Keeper by Alastair Gunn
• Horrorstor by Grady hendrix
• Slow Horses by Mick Herron
• The Summer Children by Dot Hutchinson
• Head On by John Scalzi
• I Still Dream by James Smythe
• The Hunger by Alma Katsu
• The Word is Murder by Anthony Horowitz
• The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton
• Gilded Cage by Vic James
• Rose Under Fire by Elizabeth Wein

That seems to me to be a good mix of crime, horror, sci-fi and non-fiction.

I have already started on my first book, All That Remains, and am thoroughly enjoying it, which bodes well. Look out for updates in my progress with the hashtag #20booksofsummer
