Booking Through Thursday

A weekly meme about (mostly) books and reading.

Anticipation January 3, 2008

Last week we talked about the books you liked best from 2007. So this week, what with it being a new year, and all, we’re looking forward….

What new books are you looking forward to most in 2008? Something new being published this year? Something you got as a gift for the holidays? Anything in particular that you’re planning to read in 2008 that you’re looking forward to? A classic, or maybe a best-seller from 2007 that you’re waiting to appear in paperback?


Don’t forget to leave a link to your actual response (so people don’t have to go searching for it) in the comments—or if you prefer, leave your answers in the comments themselves!

    After years of reading text books (tonight I’m cuddling up with the 84th Edition of the Canadian Income Tax Act — shudder), I decided to join the Man Booker Challenger ‘08. I just finished my first choice which was Amsterdam (McEwan) and although I didn’t love it, I can’t wait to start reading my next five picks starting with Hotel du Lac (Brookner).
