15 Books of Summer!

wrapped up last month's reading but forgot to add my link in time for the final round-up of Wyrd & Wonder



The 20 Books of Summer challenge is hosted by 746 Books. I am joining with a goal of 15 books! 

June: 5
3 books for the SFBC Group Bookshelf Challenge on GoodReads:
A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter Miller 
The Sheep Look Up by John Brunner 
The Hobbit by JRR Tolkien (reread) 
others: 
The First Men in the Moon by HG Wells (Classic with Nature in the Title)
Wild Card 

July: 5 
The Road to Wigan Pier by George Orwell 
The Protestant Ethic & the Spirit of Capitalism by Max Weber (nonfiction)(reread) (I read this earlier this year but never reviewed it; I think I need to read it again to write about it properly)
The Lais of Marie de France
The Obelisk Gate by NK Jemisin (reread)
Wild Card

August: 5
Ajax by Sophocles
Electra by Sophocles 
The Gorgias by Plato - another nonfiction that I need to reread

  1. I've yet to read anything by NK Jemisin but I've read nothing but good things! Happy reading!

  2. 15 but massive or very thoughtful books, so you will need the time. Quite a different list to most people, but a lot to enjoy there. I had to read the Weber for my anthropology degree, and write an essay about it, so I remember it well (still).

  3. Yep! I knew something about Weber from my history degree but I hadn't actually read him before.
