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 another wander through my TBR pile.
I’ve been enjoying some really good books recently and I’m wondering what I should pick up next. I have this huge pile of books and even more on my e-reader yet I’m not sure what I fancy next.
Here are at least a couple of the books I’m definitely hoping to read over the coming month. Beyond these, well, anything is possible…
New Books
The Guest List by Lucy Foley – An island, a wedding party, a murder mystery. It sounds a little Agatha Christie-ish and I cannot wait to get reading!
Books from the Backlist
Dracul by Dacre Stoker and J. D. Barker – I’m finally reading this having had it on my TBR pile forever. It’s very Gothic and I’m loving it so far. It almost makes me tempted to read Dracula once I’ve finished this, but then I wonder if I should have a change and try something completely different?
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’ve heard good things about both these books. In fact they are both on my TBR. Hope you enjoy them!

I intended to read Dracula after reading Dracul and I still haven’t! lol. And I bought Dracula the Un-Dead and still haven’t read that. Gotta get back on it! The Guest List does sound like a Christie novel! It’s in my long-term TBR.

I’ve read and enjoyed both these. I thought Dracul was great – it has everything there from the original but slightly twisted and I loved the early years elements for Bram Stoker.
And The Guest List – similar in style and tone to The Hunting Party but really good and quite addictive, very Christy(ish) in the way people are isolated and everyone seems to be a little suspect.
