The 20 Books of Summer 2024 Challenge is hosted by 746 Books and runs between June 1st and September 1st. The aim is to read and review either 10, 15, or 20 books. I’ll be reading the full 20 books this summer which will include printed books, ebooks and audiobooks from a variety of sources. I participated in and completed this challenge the past couple of years and found it to be a lot of fun to see how everyone was progressing and what they were reading.
This is very relaxed challenge. As the host notes:
- Want to swap a book? Go for it.
- Fancy changing your list half way through? No problem.
- Deciding to drop your goal from 20 to 15 (or even 10)? I am fine with that.
Here is my 20 Books of Summer 2024 Challenge reading list. This list is subject to change due to availability of library books. Most of these books are all books publishing over the next few months to tie in with the focus of this blog. I have also included 5 from my backlist.
You can follow my progress here as well as in my monthly wrapups.
I will link my reviews to each book once the review is published.

Good luck, Jodie! I’m definitely looking forward to reading Not Another Love Song as well. I’m also seeing titles I’m not familiar with but would love to read–the cover for The Design of Us is gorgeous and definitely has my eye. 🙂

Your list looks delightfully summer-y! I just picked up The Best Life Book Club from the library yesterday, so perhaps it will be added to my list, too. Good luck!
