20 Books of Winter: August recap and wrap up!

 


 
I made it! I have read all the books that I nominated to read for 20 Books of Winter and I still have a week to spare! 

Here's my list. Anything that is in purple is a book I read in June, green is one I read in July and the rest are what I read in 

Charlie's Last Angel by Maggie Christensen (review)

Secrets of the Italian Guesthouse by Sue Moorcroft (review)

Escape to the Turquoise Seas by Carrie Walker (review)

Kitchens of the Great Midwest by J Ryan Stradal (review)

The Three Juliets by Minnie Darke 

The Kings Jewel by Elizabeth Chadwick 

The Story Collector by Evie Woods

War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy (review)

The Maid by Nita Prose 

The Frozen River by Ariel Lawhon (mini review)

The Little Porto Book Club by Rebecca Raisin (review)

The Palace of Lost Virtue by Anthea Hodgson (review)

The Couples Retreat by Mercedes Mercier (mini review)

The Secret Dressmaker by Jenny O'Brien (review)

The Nile Cruise by Caroline James (review)

The Forty Rules of Love by Elif Shafak 

First-time Caller by B K Borison

Seascraper by Benjamin Wood

Everyone in this Bank is a Thief by Benjamin Stevens

Careful, He Might Hear You by Sumner Locke Elliott (review)


This was an interesting mix of books, including brand new books, older books, three books that I had nominated to read last year but didn't get to, not to mention finishing War and Peace which was a big accomplishment!

Thanks to Anna(book)bel for hosting 20 Books of Winter/Summer! I look forward to participating again next year!
