I'm happy that the new St Mary's book is out today. I love a good fantasy book, as reflected in my preorder list, which also has...

The Curse of Tenth Grave (A Charley Davidson novel, hence my username as I love these books) by Daryna Jones. An 11th book is also out in Jan.

And, much awaited, the new Kate Daniels book by Ilona Andrews, Magic Binds.

Just realised I misread Amazon page, the new Rivers of London book "The Hanging Tree" is out on May 11th 2017 not 2016! Does anyone know wtf is going on?

I love the Chronicles of St Mary's though I am listening on Audible rather than reading.They are just getting better and better,the last one managed to have me in fits of hysterical laughter,and tears ( though not at the same time...)

I have just discovered that Liane Moriaty has a new book coming out in July so I'm waiting on that,and the next in the October Daye series.(urban fantasy)

Oh and I would also love Patrick Rothfuss to finish writing his next book - been waiting a while for that one too!

The new Guy Gavriel Kay book - Children of Earth and Sky - arrived yesterday but I haven't yet finished my library book (Clariel by Garth Nix).

Also looking forward to the Robin Hobb (next year?) and been waiting what feels like forever for the next GRRM - think we'll be waiting a while.

the mandibles by Lionel Shriver.
Out yesterday :)

Enjoy, Bagel. I'm rereading from the beginning. I love her style and the humour in them. :)

charley the new st. Mary's book is brilliant - I laughed, I cried, I almost held my breath I was slightly freaking out.

I think I'm looking forward to the last Justin Cronin book - city of mirrors in June (although released on Kindle the end of May)

MissBattleaxe · 08/05/2016 22:21

I'm looking forward to Lisa Jewell's new book I Found You. I didn't like her last one, The Girls, but it's the only one of hers I haven't liked so I'm looking forward to the new one.

BestIsWest · 08/05/2016 20:51

I'm also looking forward to the third instalment of Alan Bennett's diaries.

MissBattleaxe · 08/05/2016 20:29
