Due to many pressing issues, I have neglected this little space. However, I want to participate in #20 Books of Summer hosted by the gracious Cathy @746 books. Going by my dismal past record and my inability to concentrate at present, I am not making a list. I will just read whatever takes my fancy. I know this is not how it is supposed to work but am hoping that it will bring me back to reading and especially reviewing. Wish me luck!
I will fill out the list as I finish reading and reviewing a book from tomorrow:
- Who Rides on a Tiger by Marie Belloc Lowndes (16/6/23)
- Fatal Friday by Francis Gerard (16/6/23)
- Public Ghost Number One by Andrew Soutar (23/6/23)
- Let Him Die by E.H. Clements (28/6/23)
- Steffan Green by Richmal Crompton (7/7/23)
- The Smartest Grave by R.J. White (14/7/23)
- Speak No Evil by Mignon G. Eberhart (21/7/23)
- The Occupation Trilogy by Patrcik Modiano (31/7/23)
- The Golden Swan Murder by Dorothy Cameron Disney (11/8/23)
- Chhata Darya (The Sixth River) by Fikr Taunsvi (14/8/23)

a hot cup of pleasure 
I know what you mean about, well, life getting in the way of things. I actually like the idea of not feeling pressured to read certain specific books. It can be more pleasant, I find, to choose what I would like to read at a given time. I hope you find some excellent novels!

Thanks Margot. You have always been so encouraging. I am sorry I haven’t been able to visit your blog because of being busy and all that. But I am hoping things will change now.

I look forward to seeing what you decide to read and write about, and I hope you do have more time or energy for both.
I have had trouble concentrating on writing reviews lately. I am still working on one for The Mask of Memory by Victor Canning and I have many others that I want to do.

I’ve decided not to join in this year because I find the list and deadline too restrictive every year, but your idea of making your list as you go is a good one. Good luck!

Thanks FF. I like making a list and striking out the titles but have never finished the list successfully. I hope it works out this new way.

Good luck! Hope things start feeling more organized soon.
And really, that’s what I should do anyway–I never come close to reading the books on my list as it is. This way you have a chance of succeeding!
