As I am trying to catch up on some reading for reviews at the moment I did try to be good this week....not quite as many as normal.
Gutenberg's Apprentice by Alix Christie
Consider Phlebas by Iain M. Banks
Snakes & Earrings by Hitomi Kanehara
Gutenberg's Apprentice is there simply because it sounded so interesting. The Iain M. Banks was given to me by a friend - something I have been meaning to read for ages but never seem to get around to picking it up. Snakes & Earrings satisfies my Japanese literature craving for this week.
The Anchoress by Robyn Cadwallader
The Vegetarian by Han Kang
Calamity by Brandon Sanderson
I saw The Anchoress in a local bookshop and couldn't resist though it is definitely an unknown. The Vegetarian is one I have been reading about for quite a while and finally decided to take the plunge - an amazing novel so far. Calamity is one I have been counting down the days for as the first two in the Reckoners trilogy were so good I just had to have this one.
Lingua Franca by William Thacker
This one is due to be published on the 16th May and will be my review for Friday.
All your books are new to me. I hope you enjoy them. They do sound interesting.
