preorder booklist

Anyone preorder books? I rarely do, but i love the idea of ordering something, forgetting about it, and retrieving a package with a surprise containing exactly what i want. Sending a gift to yourself in the future.

Since I can barely keep up with reading books that are actually published and available, i don't really want to spend more on hardcovers just for them to sit around in my stacks for a year until i get to them.

Here are a few titles i am looking forward to:

The Penderwicks on Gardam Street

The Penderwicks on Gardham Street by Jeanne Birdsall - April 2008, sequel to the Penderwicks

The Middle Place

The Middle Place - Kelly Corrigan ( a memoir)...shipping next week.

The Creative Family: How to Encourage Imagination and Nurture Family ConnectionsThe Creative Family - Amanda Soule , coming in April (see her blog soulemama)

An Incomplete Revenge: A Maisie Dobbs Novel (Maisie Dobbs Novels)

4th book in Maisie Dobbs series - An Incomplete Revenge  by Jacqueline Winspear, coming in Feb.

So Brave, Young and Handsome: A Novel

and this....well if you know me, you know there are no words to express my excitement. And, I don't even know what it's about. Coming the end of April.

Are you waiting for any books, sequels, favorite authors? Which one(s)?

And how am I ever going to get through my books-to-read if they won't stop writing new ones?

The End.
