What book are you really looking forward to?

[Christa M. Miller]

To piggyback on Laura's discussion about reading...

I'm looking forward to Dennis Lehane's new one, about the Boston Police Strike. And Julia Spencer-Fleming's sixth (I would think due out this fall or winter?).

Any other upcoming releases to keep watch for?

[Christa M. Miller]

Kim, so far it is slated for Fall 2007, but no one really knows because it's said to be a doorstopper that is taking him a long time! No title yet.

[Christa Faust]

Nice to be mentioned in such fine company. Hope it delivers.

[Bill Cameron]

I hear you, Christa! Wow. I hope I deliver for you too, Patrick!

[Julie Morrigan]

Allan Guthrie - Hard Man
Ray Banks - Donkey Punch & No More Heroes

[Christa Faust]

Ditto Donkey Punch. I managed to scam an early peek at Hard Man and it's brilliant, hilarious and pitch fucking black.

[Sandra Ruttan]

My review of Hard Man will run in a couple weeks - you've nailed it!

[Paul Guyot]

The latest Dortmunder novel, WHAT'S SO FUNNY? by Donald E. Westlake. It's due out next month.

[Harry Hunsicker]

I'm looking forward to Dennis Lehane's new one, about the Boston Police Strike.

Me too. Heck, I was looking forward to the one he scrapped, what was it called . . . DELORES?
