  1. There are certainly a lot of books and judging by the handful of reviews I have read, many are of high calibre. Choosing must be really difficult. I look forward to seeing the short list.

  2. How embarrassing - I don't think I've read any! But at least I've read about 45 of the international dagger eligibles to make up for it. Looking forward to the announcement of the shortlists with great eagerness.

  3. Interesting list Karen, I've read a few - Alan Bradley, Philip Kerr, Lyn Shepherd, Nancy Bilyeau, PD James, Shona McLean.

    I have a couple to read too - Imogen Robertson, William Ryan.

    I would like to read the latest Laura Wilson and Jason Goodwin.

    Looking forward to the shortlist.
