what we're reading

"Countdown to the Booker Begins

Now that the Booker longlist has been announced I'm eager to clear off my reading plate and sink my teeth into a few of the most likely candidates to eventually win the prize. In the blogging circuit two books seem to be getting the most buzz, David Mitchell's Black Swan Green and Kate Grenville's The Secret River. Can't discount the idea of a dark horse cutting ahead of the pack, of course, but these are the two I'm seeing as frontrunners so far at least as far as gossip goes."
