I am in the midst of writing 30 reviews over 30 days Larry Send a noteboard - 01/11/2012 06:37:23 PM
Do tell.


Right now, I'm busy reviewing the National Book Award finalists, or at least the ones that are available for purchase, so it's Poetry, Young People's Literature, Non-Fiction, and Fiction from now until the 14th. Then I'll review the related 5 Under 35 authors (or at least three of them) through the 17th-19th. Then I'll be reviewing recent releases, including:

Andrzej Sapkowski, Los guerreros de Dios

Kelly Barnhill, Iron Hearted Violet

Catherynne M. Valente, The Girl Who Fell Beneath Fairyland and Led the Revels There

Peter Heller, The Dog Stars

Mark Helprin, In Sunlight and in Shadow

Padgett Powell, You & Me

Karin Tidbeck, Jagannath: Stories

Adam Wilson, Flatscreen

Tim Powers, Hide Me Among the Graves

Mo Yan, The Republic of Wine

Will Self, Umbrella

Deborah Levy, Swimming Home

Alison Moore, The Lighthouse

Tan Twan Eng, The Garden of Evening Mists


Now granted, most of these I read in September-October, but they will be reviewed in November. Don't know how many I'll link to/post here, though, seeing how desolate the place is now :P
