Here we are in July, which means it's time to participate in this fun meme hosted by Jo @ The Book Jotter.
SIX IN SIX is a meme where the aim is to share in July six books in six categories from the books we have read etc. in the first six months of the year, either using Jo's categories or your own.
This year I decided to stick to five of the six categories I used last year and swapped "Six Trips to Europe and the U.K." with "Six books that are related to The Great War or Second World War".
