Booking Ahead is an opportunity to glance through my never-ending TBR list/pile and select a few potential reads for the coming month. If I’m not reading books I love talking about books I’d like to read, so this post is a perfect excuse to do just that.
Welcome to the first Booking Ahead of 2020.
I’ll be choosing a mix of new book and older titles as I’ve signed up for Beat the Backlist again and want to see how many books I can read from my TBR pile.
New Books
The Other People by C. J. Tudor – I’ve never read anything by this author and I’ve seen some good reviews for this latest so thought I’d check it out and possibly try some of her backlist titles if I enjoy this.
Books from the Backlist
The Poison Song by Jen Williams – This is the final book in the Winnowing Flame trilogy. I’ve enjoyed the adventures of Vintage, Tor and Noon and can’t await to get back into this world again.
The Colour of Magic by Terry Pratchett – I finally decided I’d discover Discworld from the beginning. I can still always change my mind and go for one of the series within the series later on, can’t I, but for now I’ll see where it all began.
Dracul by Dacre Stoker and J. D. Barker – I’ve mentioned this book before, more than once, but it’s definitely the closest to the top of my TBR that it’s ever been, so hopefully I’ll read it soon!!
What are you hoping to read this month? Have you read of my picks, and if so what did you think?
See you again next month for another Booking Ahead.
I read The Other People last week. It was my first Tudor novel. I liked a lot of it but it got really weird and parts of that I didn’t like. It was a pretty quick read though. Hope you get to Dracul this month!
