This is going to be a fun one! I can't wait to read all the great lists that will be produced today!
1. 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami - very interested to see if this takes America by storm and if I am also swept away by it. I might make Mr. BookBelle read it first.
2. V is for Vengeance by Sue Grafton - she only publishes 1x every two years. I'm darn tootin' ready to read Kinsey's next adventure.
3. The Art of Fielding by Chad Harbach - both Melody and Crowe liked it and I think that makes it a good one. Again, might give it to Mr. BookBelle first.
4. I Am Half-Sick of Shadows: A Flavia de Luce Novel by Alan Bradley - 4th installment and the first three have been quite good.
5. 11/22/63: A Novel by Stephen King - This I will anxiously pre-read for my Mom's birthday in December. I am very interested in the 1960s in general and I think Stephen King can do this dark day in history some justice.
6. Pirate King by Laurie R. King - next installment in the Mary Russell/Sherlock Holmes series - They have not disappointed yet!
7. Explosive Eighteen by Janet Evanovich - I dread this early release of the next in series as much as I look forward to it. I feel like Evanovich stands on thin ice already with her readers. This one better be good to be jumping to an early release.
8. Wicked Autumn by G.M. Malliet - This is a Max Tudor novel. I believe it is a first.
9.
A Trick of the Light by Louise Penny - Another series installment. This one is about Chief Inspector Gamache. This one actually is already out but I need to catch up with the series still.
10. I'm reserving this spot for a new book that I spot today on someone else's list!
Have a great day!
so many good titles. looks like you're in for a wonderful fall. fantastic list :)
ReplyDeletei hope you can stop by and check out my top ten list this week.

I didn't even think about Eighteen or V. Are they coming out this fall? Usually they come out in the summer.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this great list!
It was easy to put together my Top Ten list this week,Top Ten Books That Are at the Top of My TBR for Fall! And tomorrow is the last day to sign up for the Readerbuzz August Giveaway!
Stephen King and science fiction - sounds perfect! I agree with you, he can really do it justice! Happy Reading!

All of those books look pretty awesome - i have had my eye on 1Q84 for a while now! Your review will probably be up before i open it up! Look forward to it!
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I can't wait to read the Flavia de Luce books but I've only read the first so far. The Stephen King and Haruki Murakami are also on my TBR but I didn't put them on my list.
ReplyDelete18 and Wicked Autumn look good. The others I've never heard of but will have to look up on goodreads.
ReplyDeleteI think I feel the same way about Explosive 18 as you do! I've been struggling with liking them when they were coming out a year apart... four months makes me very very wary
ReplyDeleteGreat list, Belle. We have several books in common on our lists.
ReplyDeleteI didn't do a Top Ten today because I'd posted a list of 25 books I was really looking forward to reading just a couple of weeks ago. Didn't want to repeat myself. :)
Yvette: A ton of my 10 come from your 25 list. You can be counted on to bring me to point me to the really good books!
ReplyDeleteAwesome list. I'm still working on mine :)
ReplyDeleteSo many good picks!!! Two that sound good are the Laurie King book and the Max Tudor novel. And Stephen King, always a favorite of mine.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way you do about Evanovich ~ I am worried for her! I look forward to number 18 as well!
