As the holiday season approaches, I want to hear about everyone’s top book wishes–whether it’s a collector’s edition of an old favorite, a book that has somehow evaded your grasp, a book that has been recommended by a friend, or anything and everything in between. Why are you asking for these books?

For me, I’m hoping to get two books that Mike Palindrome recommended, The Collector by John Fowles and Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee. They both aren’t at my library, and I’ve wanted to read them for a while now.

    • Maeve Fly by C.J Leede

    I’m not expecting to get any but those are my top books at the moment :)

      Whalefall sounds nuts! I’m going to throw that on my TBR list. I hope you get at least one of these!

        Right?? It sounds crazy! I’m looking forward to diving into this book when I manage to find a copy. (And thank you! I hope you get some of your wants too!)

        Ooh this makes me even more excited about it! I wish it were more popular as well, it sounds amazing.

          You’re in luck too because there’s a new extended edition that was released recently! I haven’t gotten that version yet but I’m definitely going to at some point. There’s also a sequel coming out next year!
