July 2021 ~ Themes Challenge

[Grey]

We don't actually have anyone signed up to be the "theme chooser" for the month of July...any takers?

This will be the discussion thread for all our July Challenge books we read this month. You can read as many as you'd like, but please let me know which one you're picking!

What we do need is for you to sign up, and let us know you intend to participate before the 5th of the month and then, (this is the important part), come back and let us how you rated it or what you thought of it before 1159 p.m. of the last day of the month. That's it. Pretty simple, really.

(The last time we did this, we all used our massive TBR piles and made it a rule that this was a TBR challenge...I'm forgoing that rule this time, because-fun! I want this to be fun and not a slog to get through, you know? However, you certainly can stick to that rule, if you want to.)

Grey - what do you think about a book or an author with either red, white or blue in the title or name?

Or a book with any holiday in it? Any one else have any thoughts?

Finished and I liked it, it's had some fun and crazy moments, filled with greek and indian families. But I don't know, I feel that something is missing.
What I really loved was the scenery...oh what I wouldn't give to be on board a yacht to the Greek Isles right now! 3*
