Five other authors are on the pile. I think I'll try less new-to-mes next year and will concentrate on previously enjoyed authors.

The End of the Wasp Season, Gods and Beasts and The Red Road are harrowing, but excellent. An original voice. And she paints quite a picture of Glasgow.<br /><br />I'll try to read some of the books on this list, but there is SO MUCH TO READ.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167054806459662988.post-3701130345197878912015-01-10T12:33:18.804-08:002015-01-10T12:33:18.804-08:00Very true, Margot.
