Top Ten Tuesday – Books on My Summer 2024 To-Read List

36 Replies

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday! Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, this week’s prompt is

Books on My Summer 2024 To-Read List

This is an easy topic for me to do this week as this year I am taking part in the 20 Books of Summer Challenge so I have a list of books ready to go (currently I am on my second book from this list so I am a bit behind. I am even deciding on whether or not to pause it for a bit to catch up with my Blog Tour books).

To mix this list up a bit, I will add my Blog Tour books that I need to read and then take a few titles from my 20 Books of Summer list (click the titles for links to Goodreads):

Blog Tour Books

Second Chance Summer by Phillipa Ashley

Death At Chelsea by Anna Sayburn Lane

Be Less Panda by Suzanne Lissaman

Felix’s Favourite Day by Fiona Lowry

Books From My 20 Books of Summer List

The Last Devil To Die by Richard Osman

Before The Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi

The Bodyguard by Katherine Center

The Department of Rare Books and Special Collections by Eva Jurczyk

A Caribbean Mystery by Agatha Christie

Death on the Nile by Agatha Christie

Book 1 of 10 for 20 Books of Summer – The World According To Kaleb by Kaleb Cooper

1 Reply

Book Description From Goodreads:

“The star of Clarkson’s Farm shares his worldly wisdom on life’s big issues, from the difference between straw and hay to the importance of having a hair perm.

Chipping Norton’s Kaleb Cooper has strong views on lots of sheep (‘suicidal morons’), Jeremy Clarkson (‘there are two types of farming, unless you count whatever it is Jeremy thinks he’s doing’), goats (‘they’re a proper good clear-up animal, they eat everything – no wonder they taste horrible’), New York (‘if it’s like London, where there are no tractors, that’s no good’).

In his true, deadpan, and down-to-earth style, the beloved celebrity farmer shares his unique observations on topics such as philosophy, celebrities and why farming is the best job in the world. And, he even tells us why the chicken crossed the road.

Utterly hilarious, this is Kaleb as you’ve got to know and love him on the hugely successful television series.“

Today I have started my first book for the 20 Books of Summer Challenge. I am really enjoying it so far and I am already on page 98. There are a lot of pictures in it though so that has helped!

Have you read this book?
