FEBRUARY 2018: Dusty Bookshelf Challenge

[Connie N.]

There's a mix-up between Connie and Connie N.

I see that Karen's link goes to Connie's page, so it looks like she should pick for Connie and Marty should pick for Connie N.

Connie N. is listed twice as picker as well. So I'll pick for Marty, which means Connie should pick for Kathy.

[Connie N.]

Hi Marty! I haven't read any of your books, but these sound good:

and

Based on your likes/dislikes, I'm thinking this one might be right up your alley:


Enjoy!

[Camilla]

Hi Karina!

For you, I choose:
and - both have been on my TBR for ages, but I haven't gotten around to them, so would be very interested to hear your take :)

For your extra book in the horror genre, I see that you have already read several of my favourites, so I will recommend my most favourite ever: Let the Right One In by John Ajvide Lindqvist.

You may have seen the film, but the book is even more amazing - any of his books are well worth reading! Very creepy and atmospheric and different from most other stories.
(I see that you are from Norway, so you may even consider reading it in the original Swedish or the translated Norwegian, since his language is a large part of the story)

Enjoy!

I Pick

I had a hard time choosing just one bonus book for you, but won.

Side Note. Firelight and Ready Player One were the runners up.

Thanks! Running with Scissors was one I was considering for an audiobook, so that's perfect timing! I haven't actually read the first of the Jane Hawk series just yet, but it's on my list and I've loved almost all Dean Koontz books so I have high hopes!

I think I got missed post #19...I don't need to pick for anyone if you could just pick for me that would be fine

[Connie N.]

Thanks, Marty. I really need to get these read. Thanks for the push. And your bonus is already on my TBR, so it's definitely one I want to read.

I've actually read two books on your shelf, and I can highly recommend a Hugo and Nebula Award winner that you have marked to read!

My picks:

Jammin Jenny wrote: "Sorry I was thinking humor..."

I haven't read any of those choices, thanks! :)

[Zuzana]

Theo

I secretly hoped that American Gods gets to be chosen. So thanks for the expert pick. :D

I really enjoyed Ender's Game and then I found out what kind of person the author is. I will have to think about whether I'll delve into Speaker for the Dead. I don't have this problem when it comes to music. I love& listen to Wagner's and Beethoven's music eventhough they were jerks in their private lives.

Thank you Penumbra!

Yes! Those are great choices, thank you!

I've wanted to read Six of Crows for a while. I'm actually reading an Ursula K. Le Guin book now, and was planning on reading more stuff by her (RIP) this year so I'm happy with your bonus picks!!!

Thank you Marty, these are all great picks. I love my cozies and the Tony Hillerman books are such good mysteries with so much education of the south west and the Native American culture.

[Runell]

Hi, Camilla! Sorry I'm just now giving your picks, but I'm in the process of moving and just completely forgot about it until now.

In any case, my picks for you are Scythe and The Bear and the Nightengale.

For the preferred genre pick, I choose The Blade Itself by Joe Abercrombie.

I hope you enjoy all your picks (I'm currently reading Scythe and am really enjoying it).
