Can I read paperbacks that are published in 2008? i don't like reading hardbacks as a rule - they're too big and heavy to carry around! I just signed up – and then realised I have a question!

So far, I have three ARCs to count for this challenge, plus I will probably read that Anne Rice book when it comes out. (Boy, I would love to score an ARC on that one!). Look, that's four already - I am half-way there! I would really love to know what books will more than likely end up as a NYT Notable or on the short lists for Booker and Pulitzer prizes. Whenever those lists come out, I usually only know a few titles, which is slightly embarrassing when you consider how many books I read! =) Jill I am still dreaming up a list, but I think I will add a placeholder on my blog so I can officially sign up for this challenge.

Most if not all of the books I read for this challenge would probably be review books so I definitely can't make a list beforehand. I’d like to try this.

Kookiejar, I thought maybe you'd join. You're always on the ball with the new titles! Lizzy, no, if it's been published in hardback before 2008, it doesn't count.

Bagsy a spot on this one. I'll link up officially in the New Year. Authors I know are publishing in 2008 and who will definitely feature on my list are: Kate Atkinson, Charles Cumming, Linda Grant I'm sure there'll be plenty of others though. One question: Do paperbacks published in 2008 count? Oh yes! Bagsy a spot on this one. I’ll link up officially in the New Year.
