Events cause books. This should really be called the Better Get Cracking edition of Latest Acquisitions.
Annie O’Neil: Doctor… To Duchess? – O’Neil was one of the authors I met at the conference and she sent me her newest to review. It’s one of my current reads and I’m loving the inner dialogue. E L James could learn a lot.
Christina Courtenay: New England Rocks – Another of the authors I met and met again at an event I’ll be covering later this week. This is Courtenay’s first young adult book, the first in a series.
Claire Watts: How Do You Say Gooseberry In French? – Watts I met last week; I like the title of this too much.
Dinah Jefferies: The Separation – How does it go? This. Cover.
Erwin Mortier: While The Gods Were Sleeping – From Pushkin Press, an interesting tale against a backdrop of war.
Lucy King: Say It With Diamonds – I haven’t looked through this enough to get much of a picture, but it looks like good holiday reading.
Rowan Coleman: The Memory Book – Ditto above; it’s not listed on GoodReads that I could find.
Sarah Govett: The Territory – The author sold this to me; it sounds excellent, very up-to-date issues mixed with dystopia.
So, yes – lots to read. Understatement.

Good luck getting through all these new books. I hope you enjoy them! I’m trying to not acquire anymore new books. I already have too many!

What a wonderful haul! That’ll take you through the month :)
I have bought so many books recently, Two David Sedaris, two Atwood and another Richard Yates. Birthdays are dangerous things.
