52 books or bust 
I’m really curious to read your thoughts on The Visitors. I’ve picked it up and planned to start it several times, but keep setting it aside for other things.
I’m interested to see what I write! I had high hopes for it, perhaps too high. The parts set in Egypt were quite good, but the rest was so-so.
I can’t believe it’s July already either, time really does fly. Looks like you have had a wonderful month of reading this June, and I’m jealous you get to visit the Edinburgh Book Festival, that will be marvellous.
Nice month you had there! I haven’t read any of these and The Sleepwalker’s Guide to Dancing is on my July new releases list. Jealous about the Edinburgh Book Fest. I was in Scotland last summer and missed it.
My husband just read and loved the Explorers. I have received Summer House for review. here is my wrap-up: http://wordsandpeace.com/2014/07/03/2014-june-wrap-up/. Happy festival!
Looks like you had a great month! I haven’t read any of those yet but a few look interesting.
