You have to take part in your own meme don’t you – and I confess to starting this back at the end of June whilst I had some time for contemplation and thought in one of those rare moments.

Do comment and I will post your link as well. Here is to the next six months of reading and whatever it may bring. Perhaps we can all reconvene for 6 in 2016.
The Book Jotter 
Awww, shame to hear that The Paris Wife didn’t quite live up to expectations – I haven’t read that one but was looking forward to it (although Naomi Wood’s Mrs. Hemingway will be even more interesting, I think). Thanks for the mention – and do let’s reconvene for 2016 – it’s a great way to refresh your memory and think about any possible reading patterns…
Thank you for the link. Pleased to see Trouble at the Little Village School mentioned, as I now have it and The School Inspector Calls! on my to-be-read pile. I hope to be here again for another 6 in 2016 🙂
The Paying Guests is still languishing on my shelf too. I’ll get round to it eventually! I hope you enjoy your next six months of reading – and yes, let’s do this again in 2016!
I’ve been eyeballing Rose of Sebastapol for months. I think I’ll definitely have to take a dive into it now. 🙂 Thanks for this meme. It was fun to re-visit the last six months in books and see old reading patterns. 🙂

It’s lovely to see this back again. I enjoyed The Girl on the Train too.
I’ve just put my post up here http://thelittlereaderlibrary.blogspot.co.uk/2015/07/six-months-of-books-2015.html
I loved this meme so thought I’d take part, my post is here… http://littlenorthernsoul.blogspot.co.uk/2015/07/six-in-six-2015-my-year-in-books-so-far.html
it was a great way to think about what I’ve read and enjoyed so far this year. I loved reading your answers too! 🙂
I love the category – Six Book Covers I Love – that is certainly one for next year.
What great categories! Thank you for this meme.
