Fall is naturally the busiest publishing time of year and here we are, but this has been such a wonky year with publishing dates moved back, so I imagine it is going to be an especially busy new book Autumn! Of course, I have a list going! (However, some of these will not be out until early 2021).
Invisible Differences, Julie Dachez -- Really looking forward to this forthcoming graphic memoir!!
Trio, William Boyd
Fifty Words for Rain, Asha Lemmie -- Another one right up my alley-"From debut author Asha Lemmie, a sweeping, heartrending coming-of-age novel about a young woman's quest for acceptance in post-World War II Japan." I think it is out now and just am waiting for a library copy.
The Searcher, Tana French -- It's been ages since I read one of her novels--time to pick up something and her new one sounds good.
Ladies of the House: A Modern Retelling of Sense and Sensibility, Lauren Edmondson
Three, D.A. Mishani -- I have read and enjoyed a few of his mystery novels, but this is a standalone. I am always on the look out for books set in Israel.
The Lost Manuscript, Cathy Bonidan --Because I love epistolary novels! And books about books!
Confessions on the 7:45, Lisa Unger -- What is it about mysteries/thrillers set on trains?
Flowers of Darkness, Tatiana de Rosnay -- Almost passed this one up as the author tends to write about WWII and I have not been in the mood for war/Holocaust novels, but this one is about AI (artificial intelligence set in modern Paris).
A Recipe for Daphne, Nektaria Anastasiadou
Freeman's: Love, edited by John Freeman -- I love this literary journal!
This Time Next Year We'll Be Laughing, Jacqueline Winspear -- No Maisie Dobbs mystery this year, but a memoir by the author instead!
The Island Child, Molly Aitken -- "A spellbinding, deeply felt debut novel--soaring and poignant--about passion, freedom, motherhood, and the power to shape our destinies."
What are you looking forward to reading this fall?
