Woot!!!!!!! Thanks for the heads-up. I have both books by Tana French on my Top Ten list for 2009. I wonder how I can possibly get an ARC of this 3rd title……..

I don’t know if you watch LOST or not but all the buzz on Twitter yesterday (thanks @bostonbibiliophile) was that The Passage is very remeniscent of the show in multiple ways. That TOTALLY makes it a must get for me!

Justin Cronin’s THE SUMMER GUEST was one of my favorite books of all time. I’ve been following THE PASSAGE and have been frustrated because the publication date has been moved back several times. I hope they stick to this latest promised date because I’m busting to read anything new by him (even something about vampires!). The upcoming Tana French book sounds intriguing too, even though I still need to read her first two!

I haven’t read any Tana French (she stole my daughter’s name) but you’ve inspired me so I think I will add her to my TBR list.

Oh, I am so ridiculously excited about the new Tana French! I am also waiting for the new Julia Spencer-Fleming coming in April. Have you read her series at all? They are mysteries, but so much more. Each book contains a suspense plot, but she also deals with some deeper social issues and there is a continuing plot involving a friendship/relationship between a police chief and a newly ordained Episcopal priest. The characterizations are just fabulous.

I’ve had both of these on my wish list for awhile. I’ve read Cronin before–he made me cry–so I’m excited to see his take on vampires. And, yeah, I want to get inside Frank’s head for awhile. . .

I’m also anxious to read the new David Mitchell–I’ve gone so far as to order it from the Book Depository instead of waiting for the US pub date–and the new Jane Smiley.

I have not read anything by Tana French, but have read numerous great reviews of her books. I was inspired by your excitement over her new novel so I just ordered a sample of Into the Woods for my Kindle. I will let you know how it goes!

The passage sounds like a book that’s right up my alley!
