Iβve actually started Almost Famous Women (Katie from Bookish Tendencies and I are reading it as a buddy read) and All the Bright Places (which I know Iβm going to love based on Katrinβs recommendation, so Iβm saving it). The others Iβm just really looking forward to! Have you read any of these? If so, what did you think?
Really enjoyed All the Bright Places! It has a great mix of happy moments and sad moments, and I felt that the main characters -Finch and Violet- were very relateable. Hope you like it!

You've read it? I'm excited, but I don't really remember what happened in the last one, so I'm trying to decide if I need a re-read before starting this one or if I can just dive right in!
I've read several of his other books, and the ones that were good were excellent. High hopes!
Thanks β I've started it and I know it's going to be good!

Yes! I have no idea what to expect, but I'm really curious to find out!

Oh man, at least that! If only I had a few extra sets of eyes and hands to read them all at onceβ¦.

It definitely is interesting! I don't know if βenjoyingβ is exactly the right word, but I'm definitely engrossed by it.
Well that I already knew, but yay for great minds 'n' all!
I knooooow! I'm hoping to get to it in the next few weeks!

There are so many great books coming out that it was hard to pick, but I think these are the ones I'm most excited about. Well, for this week, anyway!
Right? I have no idea what it'll be like, but I HAVE to give it a try. I'm so curious!

It does! And it's supposed to be really, really good, too!
Oh good! I'm looking forward to Funny Girl. I've read a bunch of Hornby's books and the majority are a lot of fun to read. Also some of the better book-to-movie adaptations I've seen. Thanks! I felt like it was kind of cheating to include books that have already come out, but⦠well, I had to!

Okay, I don't know how this is possible, but I didn't even KNOW about Hold Me Closer until a few days ago!!! To say it's a nice surprise is an understatement. I loved Tiny's character in Will Grayson, Will Grayson, so I've got high hopes! I'm looking forward to The Shadow Cabinet, though I have kind of forgotten some of what happened in the last book. Might be time for a re-read! I've heard great things about All the Bright Places, which I've read the beginning of (and decided to save because I just KNOW I'm going to love it!).
Shadow Cabinet is so good!

Boring Girls sounds so interesting! In a really dark, different way, that is.

I haven't read any of the books you list, but several interest me, especially Funny Girl.
I love how you divided up your list. I just kind of lumped a bunch of books I hope to read this spring.

Totally forgot about Hold Me Closer and The Shadow Cabinet which I definitely want to read. Recently finished All the Bright Places, which was so good but also so heartbreaking.
