Good morning, all. Here are ten books, in no particular order, I'm looking forward to reading this coming year.
1. The Flight of Gemma Hardy by Margot Livesey: a retelling of Jane Eyre, set in the 1960s and in Scotland. One of my favorite books set in one of my favorite countries. Couldn't turn this one down.
2. A Grown Up Kind of Pretty by Joshilyn Jackson: Joshilyn is a Georgia gal, and just writes darn good stories.
3. The Wind Through the Keyhole by Stephen King: a new addition to the Dark Tower series.
4. Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare: love Cassandra's series!
5. City of Lost Souls by Cassandra Clare: see #4.
6. The Soul by Stephanie Meyer: a sequel to The Host, Stephanie's adult book that was more science fictiony (and, imho, better written) than the Twilight series.
7. The White Glove War by Katie Crouch: this is the 2nd book in her Magnolia League series. When I read The Magnolia League, it was refreshing to read a paranormal that didn't depend on werewolves or vampires.
8. Written with my Own Hearts Blood by Diana Gabaldon: If you've read (and loved) the Outlander series, this one is a no-brainer.
9. Seeds of Antiquity by Alan Bradley: the next book in another series that I love--Flavia de Luce: a precocious 10-going-on 11 amateur detective and would-be poisoner set in 1950 England
10. Shadow of Night by Deborah Harkness: the second in the All Souls trilogy that began with A Discovery of Witches
And.. there you have it. Ten books I'm looking forward to reading this year. What are you looking forward to?
