I have so many books on my TBR list that they are starting to make me itch lol

There also seem to be some good new releases that I can't help but add The Lifeboat by Charlotte Rogan being one.

Which books are you itching to read?

I am looking forward to this, as I loved his first two books The Red House A Novel by Mark Haddon , but I have such a massive pile of books in my bedroom and virtual books on my ereader that I just have to stop myself getting any more until I've cleared the decks a bit!

The Lifeboat by Charlotte Rogan That one does look like a good book club read, Kirsty. I can see it raising quite a bit of discussion. What would you do? kind of thing.

I'm liking the sound of this one too Gillespie and I by Jane Harris Apparently it's got lots of twists and turns to the tale, and I like a story to surprise me.

Yes I know you have to spend £15 though and I only wanted the one book. I did it the end though and ended up spending nearly £20 hehe. Thank you :)

I've got to say it - I can't wait to read One Hundred Years of Solitude (The Folio Society) by Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez . I started reading it over 10 years ago but was too distracted (living in a hostel dorm when I first arrived in Taiwan) so I gave it back to the girl I'd borrowed it from. I've since read Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcí­a Márquez and loved it's gritty realism.

unfortunately it's not coming out until mid-september, but I've been hearing so many good things about it I'm nearly bouncing off the walls with excitement.

I'm looking forward to The Daylight Gate by Jeanette Winterson . The synopsis makes it sound really intriguing, and I've loved everything by Jeanette Winterson I've read so far.

Finny (angeldance5) | 23 comments Margaret Atwood's final part of the MaddAdam trilogy, out on August 29th. I will be camping in Pembrokeshire that week so will have to hope one of the bookshops in Tenby get it in

Hopefully they have a sale soon - I've got a few books that I want to read that are too expensive to move up my list at the moment x

Breige (breigeflynn) | 87 comments I'm looking forward to getting my hands on The Cuckoo's Calling! I know it's been almost a month since it was unveiled who the author really is but I'm waiting for it to come into the library


message 25: by Karen (new)

Karen  | 120 comments Ditto the The Cuckoo's Calling (Cormoran Strike, #1) by Robert Galbraith , but I also want to read What Fresh Lunacy is This? The Authorized Biography of Oliver Reed by Robert Sellers - the sample I've read makes it seem a real cracker.
