What are yours?
Now that we are eleven months into the year, I've been thinking about this. So, in no particular order, here are my favourite four 'indie' books of this year.
Drum roll.....

or if you prefer the psychologically thrilling, you could try
HAUNTED by Maria Savva
One day when I have a lot of time on my hands I really, really want to get stuck into the fantasy world of
LEIYATEL'S EMBRACE by Clive S Johnson
I hope you've found something to interest you there - and I'd love to hear what your favourite books of the year have been, and also the ones you recommend and are looking forward to reading.
There are so many more I am interested in reading or would like to mention, but I tried to just pick my favourites, ones I think may become favourites, or that might appeal to many others, too.
Thanks for reading this, too!

ReplyDeleteI'm going to add those picks to my never-ending to-read list!! I have a few of them on my Kindle, I think. I'm currently reading The Dating Game, it's great, and I would definitely recommend it to chick lit fans! Thanks for mentioning Haunted :)
ReplyDeleteI wanted to mention it as it is, of course, on my TBR list. My four top ones are really worth reading - you'd especially love Rathbone Kydd because it's so rock 'n' roll!! I've read the excerpts of Northman and I've been looking forward to reading it for a while :)
ReplyDeleteI am truly honoured. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI notice it's getting bought now!!! Hurrah! Now, keep that promotion up or you can tell Rathbone I won't be 'entertaining' him next time he drops back into 2012!!
