Waiting on Wednesday

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week, I'm going with HOW THE LIGHT GETS IN by Louise Penny, the upcoming Inspector Gamache novel. This is one of my very favorite series, and I am always excited about a new installment. Penny's mysteries are so much more than that - she adds layers of humanity like thick paint in each book. This one will be out August 27. The series begins with STILL LIFE.

This week, I'm going with Lisa Lutz's next Izzy Spellman novel, THE LAST WORD. I have to wait for this until July 9. It will feel like an eternity!

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating. This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is LIFE AFTER LIFE by Kate Atkinson (see yesterday's teaser). A new Atkinson is always cause for celebration, and this one is available April 2. In the meantime, she has a number of novels you can read while you wait. Standalones: BEHIND THE SCENES AT THE MUSEUM, HUMAN CROQUET, and EMOTIONALLY WEIRD. Jackson Brodie: CASE HISTORIES, ONE GOOD TURN, WHEN WILL THERE BE GOOD NEWS?, and STARTED EARLY, TOOK MY DOG. Also memorable is her short-story collection NOT THE END OF THE WORLD, which is more like a novel built of stories.
