  1. Another book that I am looking forward to reading this year is The Long Song by Andrea Levy.

    Also will be reading Dark Rain by Mat Johnson – a graphic novel

  2. Glad to see An Inconvenient Friend on the list. I think you’ll really enjoy it.

  3. @ Beverly I like Andrea Levy so I need to add that one to my list.
