[thevegetablesoup]

Thought I'd share my list, trying to resist preordering all of the below:

Stacey Halls The Household - April

Kate Atkinson - new Jackson Brodie- Death at the sign of the Rook- August

The Mercy Chair by MW Craven, new in Washington Poe series - June

All the colours of the dark by Chris Whitaker - June

Antony Horowitz- Close to Death- new in Hawthorne series - April

Elly Griffiths - The last word - January

Caledonia Road - Andrew O'Hagan - April

The Puzzle Wood - Rosie Andrews -May

the last murder at the end of the world - Stuart Turton - March

Chris Hammer- Cover the Bones - Jan

Anyone else looking forward to any particular books?

In paperback form as I don't do fiction in hardback
Running Grave Robert Galbraith
Yellow Face RF Kuang
Age of Vice Deepti Kapoor
Tom Lake Ann Pratchett
A Bird on Winter Louise Doughty

I really liked We Begin at the End so I'll look out for the new Chris Whitaker one.
Tom Lake is on my tbr list.

The Household. Definitely.

The detective up late by Adrian McKinty.

The next Cara Hunter DI Fawley book. Ages to wait though as it's not out until summer.

For me too, the Kate Atkinson, although I wasn't crazy about her two previous books.

Also:

End of Story - A.J Finn

I've heard rumours on Booktube that Sarah Waters has a new book out next year.

@thevegetablesoup I am starting the Chris Hammer tomorrow on The Pigeonhole. Shall update you in 11 days.

I've just ordered Olive Kitteridge and Olive Again by Elizabeth Strout. I read an old review in the Times about her latest book (not reviewed well) but he highlighted how great Olive K was so thought I'd treat myself!

Red side story by Jasper Fforde which is the sequel to Shades of grey that I really enjoyed in 2010!

The next Outlander novel.

I've already pre-ordered The Betrayal of Thomas True by A.J. West for June!

The Prey by Yrsa Sigurdardottir in May

One of Us is Back by Karen McManus in March

Still patiently waiting for Red Side Story by Jasper Fforde (Shades of Grey #2)....

Goodreads says expected publication in February 🙏

I haven't paid attention to forthcoming releases but 2024 is going to be the year I tackle the Wolf Hall trilogy. Also looking forward to Demon Copperhead which I've had for a while and In Memoriam and Black Butterflies if I get them for Christmas.

The new Kristin Hannah book and Stephen King’s short stories being published in 2024

Kate Atkinson as well

Tana French's new one

Elly Griffiths The Last Word (I think)

Deborah Harkness' The Black Bird Oracle

Definitely the new Kate Atkinson!!

Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese

Can't wait for Kate Atkinson and Cara Hunter.

I've got it in my head Lissa Evans has a new one out next year which I'd love to read, but I might be wrong. Or it might be right but it's for children.

The follow up to "Brooklyn " by Colm Toibin. Think it's called "Long Island".

Yes I think she has, I saw her post about it on Twitter but I don't think it's her n Amazon yet for pre order.

Also Elizabeth MacNeal has one out called the Burial Plot

The Lissa Evans is on Amazon

The one I’m looking forward to that nobody has mentioned yet is the new Marian Keyes - another Walsh sisters follow up due in April I think.

Oh brilliant

@ChessieFL @adventangelicat very exciting, thank you.
