***** GO SET A WATCHMAN by Harper Lee
anticipating its arrival on July 15th
(Amazon tells me it has been mailed)
TTT: Hosted by The Broke and Bookish.
Go Set a Watchman is the book of the year for sure, maybe the next few years too. I ordered it from Barnes and Noble for my mom. I will of course be snagging it from her at some point lol Enjoy your reads!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty excited about the book. But what will happen if I don't like it?
DeleteHow did you like Station Eleven? I've heard really good things about and want to snag a copy! Great list :)
ReplyDeleteI've thought a lot about STATION ELEVEN since i finished it. I am not sure if LIKE is a word I'd use to describe my feelings about the book, though.
DeleteI really want to read Everything, Everything! It looks intriguing.
ReplyDeleteI want to read so many of these books! I need to get my hands on a copy of Go Set A Watchman at some point. I'm so intrigued! I hope you enjoy these books. :-) My TTT!
ReplyDeleteAs I was sitting here working on my TTT last night the news came on and the anchor said "I hope people aren't disappointed with GO SET A WATCHMAN because Atticus Finch is a bigot." Oh great. My favorite literary character is transformed. Ugh.
DeleteI really want to read Challenger Deep! Hope it is good!
ReplyDeleteI liked CHALLENGER DEEP a lot. I hope you do get around to reading it.
DeleteI really want Everything Everything. I have been enjoying books like that lately. Happy readings :)
ReplyDeleteMy TTT http://wp.me/p3ftwe-HX
Yes, EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING is pretty cute. It has a twist I wasn't expecting.
DeleteStation Eleven looks good and I'm really wanting to read Everything Everything. I look forward to seeing what you think of Go Set A Watchman. I'm already hearing tons of controversy on that one. Enjoy your new reads!
ReplyDeleteSuch a great assortment of books! You have some good reading ahead. The Last Leaves Falling, Everything Everything and Boys Don't Knit caught my eye.
ReplyDeleteGreat haul, I want all of these!! Especially Wrath & Dawn. Such a beautiful cover. My TTT
ReplyDeleteI am so excited to get further into The Wrath and the Dawn. I was such a fan of 1001 Arabian Nights as a child. I hope for lots of similarities.
DeleteI've had Challenger Deep on my shelf for a month now and it keeps staring at me, wanting me to pick it up...I don't know why I haven't because it sounds so good :) Our TTT
ReplyDeleteWell, it is not an easy, lighthearted book for one thing. I think it is an important book but not an easy book to read..
DeleteStation Eleven has been on my to-read list! The cover for Princess X caught my eye. Just read the summary and it sounds really interesting. Enjoy your newly acquired reads!
ReplyDeleteThe Wrath and the Dawn has been slowing moving up my TBR list and I've been so close to buying it. Hope you enjoy all your books!
ReplyDeleteGreat list! Looks like you have some fantastic reading ahead. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you loved Everything, Everything! That's one of my favorites of the whole year. :) I really want to get a copy of The Wrath and the Dawn soon! I've been hearing amazing things about it.
ReplyDelete"Wrath and Dawn" is EVERYWHERE these days. Or it seems to be. Hope you're liking it. It does sound intriguing.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting Dreaming Under the Same Moon, Anne. Happy reading. :)
I also ordered GSAW! CANNOT WAIT for it to arrive!
ReplyDeleteAnd I also have Station Eleven on my list this week.
Can't wait to read The Wrath and The Dawn and Boys Don't Knit (but I don't own them yet).
I want to pick up a copy of Station Eleven very soon! I have heard great things about Everything, Everything, and Challenger Deep is also on my TBR. Hope you enjoy GSAW! I'm eager to start hearing some reviews soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by the The Local Muse
Princess X looks so good! It's definitely one I would like to read. Also I started Station Eleven a few weeks ago, but it didn't grab me. I have to go back and give it another shot. I think I just had too high of expectations! Thanks for stopping by my list :)
ReplyDeleteI'm super jealous that you have Go Set a Watchman coming your way!! I read an excerpt online recently and it made me super excited. I hope to get it soon too!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my TTT: https://greenishbookshelf.wordpress.com/2015/07/14/top-10-tuesday-recently-acquired-books/
This is a great list! I really want to read Station Eleven (I have a copy, but haven't managed to get to it) and The Wrath of the Dawn is on my wish list. I don't think I'll read Harper Lee's new book. I am curious to know what everyone thinks about it though when they read it.
