And finally, our brand new issue of Shiny New Books goes live today! I think we’ve probably done the most work for this one of any of our issues so far, because publishers went completely crazy this autumn with the new releases.
So hop on over and see what you want to put on your list for Christmas….
I’d love to know what you think of our new ‘Contents’ pages. Here’s mine.
We thought that with so many books and articles to choose from, you might want to know a little more about them before you click. If you have any feedback about our new feature, I’d love to know it.
If you’re still not sure quite where to begin, here’s a few pointers to get you started:
The funniest book about a sad subject I read.
The best book by a much-loved, favorite author.
The most beautiful, engrossing piece of translated fiction I think I’ve ever read.
A deliciously wonderful historical novel.
The book I almost didn’t bother reading which turned out to be a treat.
And if you’d like something different, I’ve written a couple of special features this time around:
One looking at Sarah Waters’ rise to literary fame via her back catalog.
One on Caribbean sensation, Monique Roffey.
And if you feel like joining in a debate, come and discuss book cover art with the eds!
