The Summer Reading Challenge is back for 2024!

Robin Stevens - Summer Reading Challenge 2024 - Social asset(1)

Big news for Detectives with time on their hands this summer – we’re bringing the Robin Stevens Summer Reading Challenge back for 2024!

This version is themed around the 10th anniversary of Murder Most Unladylike – if you read (or reread) five or more of my books in any format, physical, digital or audio, before the end of the summer and register that you’ve completed the challenge on the Puffin website (very important: don’t do it here! This challenge is run by Puffin, not me!) then you’ll be sent a special Detective Society pin badge and be entered into the draw to win both the MMU 10th anniversary edition and my brand new puzzle book that’s out in September. (If you’re under 18, by the way, you’ll need to ask an adult to enter on your behalf.)

There’s a handy printable sheet so you can track your progress – and if you do have social media, please do let us all know how you’re doing!

Good luck, Detectives, and happy reading!
