Summer TBR List

How many books do you put on a seasonal reading list? My "books-read-per-year" numbers have been going up in the last few years, and my GR goal for the year is 50. So far I've read 31, and we're just at the halfway mark! That may not seem like a lot to some of you, but some years I've only gotten through 30 in total, so this is definitely a big deal to me! 

I'm always actively participating in at least one reading challenge, and that's Erin's bi-annual challenges. (Click here if you'd like to join!) I'm a mood reader so it's hard for me to commit to 10 books but luckily, Erin no longer deducts points if you feel the need to switch! So here's what I plan to read between now and end of August/early September. Netgalley books are marked with an asterisks, not owned books are marked with a plus sign,... and I think that's it! 

Twenty-One Truths About Love- Matthew Dicks* (currently reading- such a slog- ugh!)
Husband Material- Emily Belden (my vacation/beach read)
