First book was the Exorcist. Loved it highly recommend. My next one is The Beach by Alex Garland

[David]

Next up my diversify your self the fifth season by N K jemisin

[Pixie]

How do you like that? I have heard that the Fifth Season is just a phenomenal book.

[David]

To be honest I wasn't a fan. Lots of unexplained lore that matter to the story and you just have to infer. Lots of 'looking at his face I now understand what he is' no further info is then given and you just need to guess. Not sure if the next book is out yet but I imagine that you need to read it to finish the story

[David]

Next up my what big teeth you have Stung by bethany wiggins

[David]

Next high noon: blood meridian by cormac mccarthy

[David]

Hated blood meridian onto my next challenge gladly, next up beach read Cured by Bethany Wiggins

[David]

Beach read finished next into the great wide open with "off the Grid" by c j box

[David]

Off the Grid was great next poetry with "The Princess Saves herself in this one"

[David]

The definition of poetry must be to hit return after every word next up short stories with "magic for Beginners"

[David]

Magic for Beginners was perhaps the worst book I have ever read next sports a holic "murder on the links

[David]

Murder on the links was fab next up colors of summer with manhatten beach

[David]

Took me a while but Manhatten Beach was great.... Is summer over or can I keep reading I'm loving this. Next up my childhood reboot... Not sure what its gonna be tho

[Karen]

I think you should keep reading. For me, summer won't be over until I finish the challenge.

[David]

Started Romeo and /or Julie fun book and still have choices to make but since it's hard to know when a choose your own adventure book is finished I'll Move on to read the world and sunset song by Lewis grassic gibbon

[David]

Sunset song was a tough but enjoyable book, next out on the ocean with jacqou coustou

[David]

The silent world was fascinating and my first non fiction of the year, next up the love story Outlander
