I haven't read a single book on here, but have books by some of these authors though.

I keep think I need to add NK Jemison to my individual list, and even if I don't; I need to start one of the series I have, by her. Ugh.

I have Mark Lawrences; Theft of Swords finally. Everyone raves about this series, so, I need to find out why!!!??? LOL

Good luck and happy reading!! 📚

I only have about 4 of these on my TBR list. Good luck with your challenge.

It always amazes me when I come accross someone's list with a list of fascinating books that I have not come across-- almost all of the books are new to me--but they all look very interesting. I already added several to my TBR and I will be watching for your thoughts throughout the year.

[Lillie]

Ok, so I started reading your list and thought, oh a water theme! lol

Great looking list. Enjoy your challenge :)

[Jackie]

Good luck with your list.

I've only read The Puppet Show. I've loved all the books in the Washington Poe series so far so hopefully you'll enjoy starting it.

Good luck!

You're so smart... I didn't even pay attention!! LOL

[Ioana]

What a great list! I haven't read any of these books, but I hope to read at least some of them in 2024. Hope we both enjoy them, happy reading!

These are all unfamiliar to me. I look forward to your thoughts on them. Enjoy.

I like N. K. Jenison books a lot. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this one. Enjoy your challenge!

I just finished The Covenant of Water, and I enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to reading The Wager this year too, Carolyn. I hope we both like it. Happy reading!
