|| Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. ||
This week we were asked to list the books on our Summer 2024 To-Read List.
I actually have a list this year but whether I stick with it remains to be seen.
I also want to add some lighter books to this mix so if you have any suggestions let me know.
I have more than 10 books on my summer reading list but I’m going to just list 10. It doesn’t mean I’ll only read these, but I’d like to read these at some point this summer.
This list is in no particular order and, as always, is subject to change. It’s actually already changed in the last week. Ha!
- Lord Edgware Dies: A Hercule Poirot Mystery by Agatha Christie (already started and enjoying)
2. The Clue of The Whistling Bagpipes by Carolyn Keene
3. Little Men by Louisa May Alcott (a late edition)
4. Dandelion Cottage by Carol Watson Rankin
5. Ever Faithful by Karen Barnett
6. The Cross County Quilters by Jennifer Chiaverini
6. Trouble Shooter by Louis L’Amour
7. The Bobbsey Twins On Blueberry Island by Laura Lee Hope
9. An Assassination on the Agenda by T.E. Kinsey
10. The Real James Herriot: A Memoir of My Father by Jim Wight
Additional books I’m reading or will, most likely read, A Sentence to Death by Anthony Horowitz (already started), Summer By The Tides by Denise Hunter, Return to Gone Away Lake by Elizabeth Enright (already in the middle of this with Little Miss and it’s a perfect summer read), and The Secret of Red Gate Farm by Carolyn Keene.
Since I am a mood reader, I am sure some of these books will get pushed back to fall or winter.
Do you have any books you hope to read this summer?

I read a couple of Agatha Christie books last month too. I’ve haven’t read the one you mentioned so will check it out. Thanks for sharing at #WeekendTrafficJamReboot and have a great weekend. x

We will see if I stick to it or not, though. 😉

My go-to books were the Bobbsey Twins when I was young. I read (probably reread) one last year, and I was surprised to find how well it stood up.
And why haven’t I read Ever Faithful? That’s going on my list.

I don’t remember ever reading the Bobbsey Twins but my mom did. I had a friend recommend Karen Barrett’s books before but I didn’t try them…I’m not sure why.

I have no idea what I’ll be reading! I have several books on hold on Libby so it will be a surprise when they come in! I love that you’re reading a Bobbsey Twins book! Those were my favorites when I was growing up (along with Nancy Drew)!

I have a lot of fun making these lists but I almost never stick to them. 🙂

I need to read more of the Poirot books! I just finished the first book in a middle grade series that imagines a young Agatha Christie and a young Poirot solving mysteries together. It was really fun. I hope you enjoy all these.
Happy TTT!

The Nancy Drew one was one of my favorites, but that might also be because it was set in Scotland! I hope you have a good summer reading these; they look like a lot of fun.

What led you to the L’amour title? It’s a bit of an outlier compared to the rest. XD
