How do you know these books are "great" if they haven't been released yet?
Anthony wrote: "How do you know these books are "great" if they haven't been released yet?"If you read the introduction, you see how they identify the books - it's by how many readers have them on their TBR - that would happen by people reading ARCs (advanced reader copies) of the book and sharing their reviews prior to release.

Apeirogon is the best book I've read in a long time, but it's difficult at times because of the subject matter and structure. A must read.Full review at my blog.
Shouldn't The Splendid and the Vile be listed under nonfiction, not historical fiction?
Ellie wrote: "Shouldn't The Splendid and the Vile be listed under nonfiction, not historical fiction?"Historical fiction is actually more accurate for Larson's writing. His books are extremely well researched and are often marketed as nonfiction, but are usually at least partially fictional... I guess you could say creative non-fiction perhaps?
Gone at Midnight sounds like a great read!
Denise wrote: "Gone at Midnight sounds like a great read!"I am currently reading it. Around 70% in, the author appears to have covered every single detail available publicly.
