The Covenant of Water
All the Light We Cannot See
The Treasure of Montségur: A Novel of the Cathars
A Gentleman in Moscow

Janis Stanger Kirina, I have read All the Light we Cannot See. It is a wonderful, marvelous book!


message 5: by Julie (new)

Julie I would recommend the audio version of "The Covenant of Water". I don't think I would have finished it otherwise. "All The Light...." is a wonderful book!!!!

Hi, Susan! These aren't coming out until later this year, so aren't eligible for this list. This is a list of books that released this week.

Jancee Tabacnic My wife and I preordered The Parliament by Aimee Pokwatka - murder owls trapping a group of people in a library sounds deliciously fun!

We also ordered This Wretched Valley by Jenny Kiefer, a horror debut set in the wilds of Kentucky in which things do not go well for a group of rock climbers trespassing on cursed lands.

Peggy I read The Fury last week. His previous novel, The Silent Patient, was very good. That's all I have to say on this.
