Another Summer Reading Challenge completed! This was my seventh year of participating, and it's my favorite challenge next to the November Nonfiction Challenge. In previous years I chose to wait until the fall equinox rather than Labor Day to wrap things up, giving myself a few extra weeks. But this year, I decided to stop and get this posted before we head out on another camping trip.
As always, I chose 20 books with a mix of new releases and backlist titles. I gave up on seven, but subbed in nine (some for book club, as well as a few audio choices). I read eighteen in all, which is one more than last year (and in less time!). Four of the books were over 400 pages, and one of those was over 1000 pages!
Completed for 2026
I won't link to each review (I've already done so on my monthly summaries), but here are the final ratings:
Two 5-star books
Four 4.5-star books
Nine 4-star books
Three 3-star books
Below are my original picks. I'm still planning to read Land, Love by the Book, Life: A Love Story, and All the Broken Places, but maybe not until the end of the year. I'm ready to spend the next two months reading mysteries.
