    1. Hard to choose when compiling them but I love reading everyone else's lists - lots of new titles for the TBR.

  5. Some great books here. I haven't heard of all of them either, so I'm going to look them up and then probably add them to my wishlist :P

    1. It's surprising how diverse everyone's lists are and a great way to add more to next year's TBR.

  6. I must have picked up Foal's Bread in a kindle sale as have no idea what it's about apart from "pony on the cover!" so it's good to see you enjoyed it. I have also been hankering after the cover of Sanctuary Line for a while.

  7. Harold Fry was one of my favorites this year, too, and I LOVED Clara Callan but rarely see it mentioned.

    1. I love finding books that I missed when they were first published and Clara Callan was worth waiting for. Probably No 1 favourite for the year and I hope more readers will seek it out.

  8. Of these, I've read none, but I have The Uninvited Guests somewhere - so I'm looking forward to that!

    1. It's the sort of book you will either love or loathe so I hope it's the former for you.
